"There are many reports of massage therapists sexually abusing their clients. Recently, it seems sexual assault is an issue within the massage therapy industry. It is possible for victims of sexual assault by a masseuse to file a civil lawsuit."
"Most companies have policies in place to make sure that employees respect their clients. Background checks on potential employees, closely monitoring and adequately training employees on proper behavior, and reporting and investigating any claims of misconduct are included in these policies."
"Some large employers, such as Massage Envy, have ignored complaints of sexual abuse against their massage therapists and continued to employ them, making them liable to claims of negligent conduct. If a massage parlor or spa has previously received complaints about sexual misdeeds by a massage therapist, they can be held liable. Victims of massage sex abuse should speak with an experienced sexual assault lawyer to determine if they have grounds for a lawsuit."
