Massage Therapy Certification
Medical Certifications Training ProgramsThere are several different systems of massage therapy certification, including certification offered by individual colleges, universities, and health education institutions; the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB) also offers massage therapy certification.

AMTA Certifying Body

The American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA) set up the NCBTMB in 1992, and as the main standard-setting organisation, certification through this body is recognised widely. AMTA also run the Commission on Massage Therapy Accreditation (COMTA) to accredit training agencies that offer training and massage therapy certification.

Most certification programs are part time, and you are expected to use your massage skills in practice during the time of your massage therapy certification program. You will find that your massage therapy certification program puts you in contact with other people in your profession, helping you to widen your network of contacts, and enabling you to share experiences with other practitioners.

Certification means that you have to have completed the specified curriculum of the massage therapy certification training program to the satisfaction of the examining body. You will study subjects such as anatomy, physiology, a variety of massage therapies and relaxation techniques, and in some cases history of massage and related subjects.

Your massage therapy certification will help your clients to recognize your expertise in massage, and will make sure that you have peer recognition of your skills. You will have a theoretical background to your skills, and you will be able to widen the massage techniques that you can use in your practice.
