Since our beginnings as a completely volunteer driven organization, we have grown to the place

of providing a fully operational office and staff that can be reached during regular business hours (M-F 9-4 Mountain Time). This has allowed us to increase service to both members and prospective members and frees up our volunteers to promote the benefits of the Canadian Massage and Manual Osteopathic Therapists Association to the public and future members. Our governance Board of Directors is elected by our membership, from within our members, and is responsible for policy adoption and revision as necessary, oversight of all financial matters and oversight of all committees struck by the Board. Our association is active on several internal and external committees at the federal, provincial, and municipal levels of government. We are one of 4 associations that represent massage therapists recognized by Alberta Health and Wellness. Massage Therapists in unregulated provinces & territories who are members of the Canadian Massage and Manual Osteopathic Therapists Association are automatically recognized by health insurance companies, as we do not accept massage therapist members with less than 2200 hours of training from a recognized school, nor do we recognize experience in lieu of education. Manual Osteopathic Therapists who are members of our Association are recognized by nationwide by 21 health insurance companies, and we continue to advocate to see this recognition list grow. Our members practice nationwide in Canada from coast to coast to coast.

Choosing a professional association is a big decision, and it should be about more than simply checking a box.

Before you join, ask questions. What are the membership requirements? What will it actually cost? What does the liability insurance cover? How easy is it to get support when you need it? What benefits are included, and will your membership move with you if your career takes you to another province?

The right association should be able to give you clear answers and help you feel confident about the decision youโ€™re making.

If youโ€™re still a student, you can join CMMOTA for FREE and start learning about the support, resources, and benefits available to you before you graduate.
