Three charged in illegal Farmingdale massage practice

An unlicensed massage led to the arrest of three people Tuesday night in Farmingdale after the owner of Body Works on Hempstead Turnpike presented police with a fraudulent massage therapist license, police said.

Nassau County police said those arrested were: Xiaoli Xu, 48, Quiyun Sun, 47, and Han Jing Quan, 47, all of 26th Avenue in Flushing. Police said Xu and Sun were each charged with unauthorized practice.

Police also said that when questioned, Quan identified himself as the owner of Body Works - and produced a license in the name of Xiaohua Bai Han. He was charged with second-degree possession of a forged instrument and fourth-degree criminal facilitation.

Xu, Sun and Quan are all scheduled for arraignment Wednesday in First District Court in Hempstead.
