Victoria Update on Mask Requirements

Beginning at 11.59pm on Wednesday 22 July, it will be a requirement of everyone who lives in metropolitan Melbourne and Mitchell Shire to wear a mask or face covering when they leave their house for one of the outlined four reasons.

It is the Association’s understanding that therapeutic massage therapists, remedial massage therapists and myotherapists who are located in or travelling to metropolitan Melbourne or Mitchell Shire will all be required to wear masks when treating clients as part of these new restrictions. Clients will also be required to wear masks.
