A Forsyth County massage parlor was shut down Sunday after sheriff’s officials said the parlor operated illegally, according to Channel 2 Action News.
The owner of Image TLC Massage failed to obtain a massage owner and spa permit. And Forsyth County Sheriff’s deputies found beds instead of massage tables in the business.
Officials told Channel 2 that is evidence employees lived inside the business and that other illicit activity happened at the business.
The incident followed a raid March 11 that led a number of massage parlors to shut down in Forsyth County.
An ordinance passed last year tightening restrictions went into effect Jan. 1; and the Forsyth sheriff’s office said during a grace period, deputies went to the businesses, gave them copies of the ordinance and urged them to comply.
