Is your Massage School Accredited?
29 June 2010Nothing can be more horrible than finding out at the end of your massage course that your money and time spent will not allow you to work in your chosen career. One of the first questions at a preliminary interview when looking for a reputable college is who they are accredited with.
The only Massage Therapy focused accreditation is COMTA. There are other college accreditation agencies as well, just make sure you check your perspective colleges claims on their accreditation before signing up.
Massage Therapy Reciprocity
22 June 2010If you have been thinking of moving your practice to another state. It is wise to know what the state requirements are in order to practice in your new state. Its also a great idea to call the perspective state licensing board with questions regarding their requirements. Our sister site, Massage-Exam.com has information and links to each state sites. The reciprocity information is mostly found on the PDF Application or in the Laws and rules links on each state page.
You can also find the contact information to the state board and other helpful information pages on our site. Namely the Insurance comparison, MBLEx and NCETM/TMB, Associations, and Continuing Education information pages.
Massage Community Growing
14 June 2010It has been great to see the powerful changes that have been occurring in the Massage Community in the last few years. I know it has been working its way up to these improvements for many years. It is great to see the fruits of everyone’s labors.
Congratulations to the newly formed Board for the Alliance for Massage Therapy Education (AFMTE).
New Massage Insurance on The Block
9 June 2010Massage Magazine has become a provider for Massage Therapists Liability Insurance. Massage Magazine Insurance Plus (MMIP) is another company I need to add to our Insurance Comparison Page on Massage-Exam.com. Silly I know but if you compare MMIP’s Comparison Page, it looks an awful lot like ours????
I guess it is flattering to know we have great resources that others like to use, even if they don’t come right out and say where they get the information or idea. I guess we are the third party spoken of at the bottom of their page.:) Oh and IMA has just changed ownership, we will also be updating that information. Happy Hunting.
