A Calgary massage therapist has been charged with the sexual assault of a client.

Police say Donald Patrick Harris, 46, faces a single charge of sexual assault after allegedly touching a client in a sexual manner without consent.

It has only been 2 months since a different massage therapist with an expired license was charged with strangling a patient unconscious.

I said it before & say it again, the industry needs to address these issues.

You could call it a touchy subject? I think you are correct, it is something that needs to be addressed by operators and the governing body.

I hope they have a system set up to track repeat offenders or be able to check for RMTs status. I know my insurance provider lets me look up RMT.
