A licensee who is under investigation for misconduct, as defined in Section 40-30-230, voluntarily may surrender his or her license to the department, invalidating the license at the time it is surrendered. An individual who voluntarily surrenders his or her license may not practice as a massage/bodywork therapist until the panel reinstates the individual's license. An individual practicing as a massage/bodywork therapist during the period of voluntary license surrender is deemed an illegal practitioner and is subject to the penalties provided in this chapter. Surrendering a license must not be considered an admission of guilt in a proceeding held pursuant to this chapter. However, surrendering a license does not preclude the panel from imposing conditions on the acceptance of the proffered license or from taking disciplinary action against the licensee.
