Great progress for our colleagues practicing in Oregon! Now Washington, catch up!

The Oregon House recently passed House Bill 3819-A on April 17, 2025, with a 51–2 vote, aiming to combat illicit massage businesses often linked to human trafficking and the exploitation of women, particularly Asian women. 

Key Provisions of HB 3819-A
• Increased Fines: Raises the civil penalty for operating an unlicensed massage facility from $1,000 to $5,000 per violation. 
• Public Warnings: Empowers the Oregon Board of Massage Therapists to post placards on businesses found in violation, warning customers. 
• Stronger Penalties for Repeat Offenders: Elevates repeat offenses from a misdemeanor to a Class C felony, punishable by up to five years in prison and a $125,000 fine. 
• Mandatory Reporting: Designates massage therapists as “public or private officials,” making them mandatory reporters of abuse. 

Legislative Motivation

Representative Thuy Tran (D-Portland), whose district includes areas with a high concentration of illicit massage businesses, emphasized that these establishments often exploit trafficked women. She highlighted the issue of the hypersexualization of Asian women, stating, “The illicit massage industry systematically exploits Asian women nationwide to meet these racist and sexist demands.” 

Tran’s awareness of the issue was heightened following a 2024 investigative report by Willamette Week, which detailed the proliferation of such businesses in Oregon. 

Next Steps

Having passed the House, HB 3819-A is now under consideration by the Oregon Senate Judiciary Committee. If enacted, the law is set to become operative on January 1, 2026.

Happy pre-MLK day! We honor the holiday, but also realize it’s a day a lot of folks have off of work and can get in for some self care.
It’s not like anything else is going on 😅

We've had a really high rate of last minute cancellations and no-shows lately. We could not be more clear. If you miss or cancel within 24 hours of your appointment we charge you the full rate. And, we hate doing it. Our staff are waiting for you and the room is reserved in your name. Most days there’s people waiting to get on the schedule and then they don’t get treatment either. So, don’t be a grinch! If you can’t make your appointment send someone else!
