Florida Dept. of Health Revokes Massage Therapist Jason Yoho’s License After Sexual Misconduct

Florida Dept. of Health Revokes Massage Therapist Jason Yoho’s License After Sexual Misconduct
Jason Yoho Horowitz Law

On March 6, 2025, the Florida Board of Massage Therapy issued a Final Order revoking massage therapist Jason Yoho’s license following an allegation that Yoho sexually assaulted a female client.  Prior to the revocation Order, the Florida Department of Health issued an Emergency Order restricting Yoho’s license. Yoho had been a licensed massage therapist in the state of Florida since 2018.  As a result of the Board of Massage Therapy’s action, Yoho is permanently and immediately prohibited from practicing massage therapy in the State of Florida.

According to the Emergency Order, a 27-year-old female patient presented for a massage on January 4, 2024, at J Sterling’s Wellness Massage in Orlando, Florida, where Yoho was employed. Yoho allegedly reached under the sheet covering the victim, and placed his fingers beneath the edge of the victim’s underwear. Yoho allegedly also reached under the sheet to fondle the victim’s breasts and nipples. The victim did consent or give permission for these actions according to her complaint.  She then left and contacted the Orange County Sheriff’s Office to report the alleged assault.

In a separate incident just twelve days after the alleged sexual assault, Yoho was arrested in Orlando for possession of cocaine during a routine traffic stop.

J. Sterling Wellness operates multiple massage establishments in the central Florida area.  At its Clermont location, massage therapist Youssef Habbouli surrendered his license after the Florida Department of Health brought a claim against him for sexual misconduct he allegedly committed upon a 21-year old female client.

There are numerous pending civil lawsuits involving sexual misconduct at various massages and spas in the State of Florida. Under Florida law, massage therapists occupy positions of trust, and all sexual activity between the massage therapist and clients is strictly prohibited. A massage therapist may not use his relationship with a client to induce or attempt to induce the patient to engage or to engage or attempt to engage the client in sexual activity outside the scope of practice or the scope of generally accepted treatment.

Horowitz Law has filed numerous sexual assault lawsuits against massage therapists on behalf of clients who were sexually assaulted at business across the state of Florida.
