Founded in 1943, the American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA) is a nonprofit professional association serving massage therapists, students, and schools across the United States. Our story began when a group of massage therapists in Chicago came together to exchange knowledge, support ethical practice, and strengthen their profession. Today, we help members build and sustain their careers through liability insurance, continuing education, business tools, career resources, and professional connections. From preparing for the Massage & Bodywork Licensing Examination (MBLEx) to developing clinical skills or running a practice, our resources support members at different stages of their working lives. We advocate at the federal, state, and local levels on issues affecting massage therapists, including fair licensing and professional recognition. We also support research and share research-informed information about massage therapy with the public and the healthcare community. Our national convention, state chapters, and educational programs create opportunities for members to learn from one another and contribute to the profession’s future. Guided by a volunteer national Board of Directors, we remain focused on the purpose that brought us together: serving our members while advancing the art, science, and practice of massage therapy.
