Welcome!
We are the Oregon Chapter of
AMTA
The
national American Massage Therapy Association represents more than
55,000 massage
therapists in 27 countries, including over 1185 in the state
of Oregon. AMTA works to establish massage therapy as integral
to the maintenance of good health and complementary to other
therapeutic processes; to advance the profession through
ethics and standards, certification, school accreditation,
continuing education, professional publications, legislative
efforts, public education, and fostering the development of
members.
We're the only grassroots organization in our profession. We
have 52 chapters and a democratically elected Board of
Directors. That's your assurance that all our resources are
directed toward supporting our members' needs and interests!
The American Massage Therapy Association provides many
benefits for being a member. Liability insurance coverage is a
membership benefit. Members receive six issues per year of
Hands On, the AMTA newsletter, four Issues of Massage Therapy
Journal, Find a Massage Therapist National Locator Service,
Career Guides Series which is a set of five manuals to help
plan and establish your massage practice, and legal services
through the Access Project. These are just a few of the
membership benefits.
