Help Center / How do I reactivate my massage therapist license from retired status?


To reactivate a RETIRED license, complete the following steps:

  • Complete all continuing education requirements for each biennium the license was retired.

A list of continuing education requirements for each biennium is available here.

  • Confirm your continuing education is reported through CEBroker.
  • Submit a request to reactivate (including name, license number, and a written statement) and fee payment to the board office by mail to:

Florida Department of Health
Board of Massage Therapy
4052 Bald Cypress Way C-06
Tallahassee, FL 32399

Fees must be submitted to the department by check or money order.

  • During renewal, the total fee to reactivate is $105.00.
  • Outside renewal, the total fee to reactivate is $155.00 (reactivation fee; change of status fee).

If your license was retired for more than two consecutive biennial renewal cycles, you may be required to demonstrate competency before your license can be reactivated.
