Woman faces charge of unlicensed massage

BELCHERTOWN - A Springfield woman charged with practicing unlicensed massage therapy appeared Thursday for her pretrial hearing in Eastern Hampshire District Court.

Lihong Geng, 47, whose address is listed as 15 Rutledge Ave., Springfield, the same address as Jan's Spa, requested a Mandarin interpreter when pleading innocent at her arraignment on April 6, according to court documents.

Although Geng was reportedly arrested by Hadley police, the location of her arrest was not included in court documents, and Hadley police declined to comment on the arrest Thursday.

Attempts to reach Melanie S. Lewis, Geng's appointed lawyer, were unsuccessful Thursday.

Judge William Hadley scheduled Geng to appear in court for another pretrial hearing on June 15.
