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.

Mid-week check-in for therapists ๐Ÿ’œ

Some weeks feel heavier than others. Full schedules, physically demanding treatments, complex client needs, emotional exhaustion, charting, rebooking, trying to stay fully present through it all...

And yet, you continue showing up with care, professionalism, and compassion.

That matters.

The small moments of resilience count too. Taking a deep breath between clients. Asking for help. Adjusting your treatment approach. Giving yourself grace after a hard day.

Itโ€™s the weekend. Time to reset, recharge, and take a breath.

As therapists, itโ€™s easy to spend the entire week focused on everyone elseโ€™s well-being while pushing your own to the side. Consider this your reminder that your health matters too.

Go for the walk.
Do the stretch session.
Take the nap.
Spend time outside.
Log out for a while.

A therapist who takes care of themselves can show up even better for the people who depend on them.
