San Bernardino County requires conditional use permits for massage establishments in unincorporated areas, with operators and technicians holding California Massage Therapy Council (CAMTC) certification under state law.
Title 8 zoning rules treat massage establishments as a permitted use only in commercial zones with a county Land Use Services approval. Operators must verify CAMTC certification for every practitioner under California Business and Professions Code section 4600. Locations must comply with lighting, signage, and reception-area visibility standards. Sheriff inspections are routine, and operators that fail to display CAMTC credentials face suspension of their county business registration alongside referrals to state regulators.
Operating without zoning clearance or employing uncertified massage technicians risks permit revocation, daily fines, and CAMTC enforcement.
