Massage Therapist insurance in Kansas — FAQ

Do massage therapists need insurance?+

Most states require liability insurance to hold a massage license, and most spas require independent contractors to carry it. A combined general/professional liability policy is standard.

How much does massage therapist insurance cost?+

A combined general and professional liability policy typically costs $250–$650 per year. Many associations bundle both into a single annual policy.

Do I need insurance if I work at a spa?+

Usually yes — most spas classify therapists as independent contractors and require you to carry your own liability policy. The spa's insurance protects the spa, not you.
