This can make it difficult for clients to identify skilled masseurs and find high quality massage treatments.<\/p>\n<p>To tackle this problem, The Danish Health and Medical Authority (<span>Sundhedsstyrelsen<\/span>) and The Danish Tax Agency (Skat) have implemented a solution which requires specific educational and training conditions to become a registered masseur. This way clients can see whether a masseur is a RAB registered, and a so-called &#8220;Momsfritaget&#8221; therapist or not, so they can find the qualified specialists and the high quality massage treatment they need. This registration also makes it possible for clients to receive reimbursement for massage treatment from their health insurance when they are visiting a RAB registered masseur.<\/p>\n<p>Do you find it difficult to get an overview of all these rules, training requirements and registrations? Don\u00b4t worry, you are not alone!
