The College of Massage Therapists of British Columbia says a massage therapist in Burnaby who's been accused of sexual misconduct cannot have female clients while he's being investigated.

It comes after a patient complained that the therapist inappropriately touched them in April.

The college says the accused must now submit his patient calendar weekly.

An inspector will also conduct random on-site audits.
