A former massage therapist in Halifax is facing additional sex charges.

The 43-year-old suspect was originally charged in March with one count of sexual assault, with five more charges laid in April.

Police say two more charges have been added to the case in July against the man who reappeared in court September 8.

He worked at a business on Lacewood Drive in Halifax, where the offences allegedly took place during appointments.

Out of respect for victims, no further details will be released.
