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.

Graduation isnโ€™t the end of learning โ€” itโ€™s just the beginning.

Across Canada, therapists are required to complete Continuing Education (CE) hours to keep their membership active and stay current. CE keeps your skills sharp and protects your clients.

But for new therapists (and even students thinking ahead), the common challenges are real:
โ€ข Finding relevant, quality courses
โ€ข Fitting them into a busy schedule
โ€ข Paying for them on a new-grad budget

A good association makes all the difference. CMMOTA members get:
โ€ข Exclusive pricing and member discounts on approved courses
โ€ข Clear guidance on what counts toward your requirements
โ€ข Access to practical, high-quality education focused on real-world skills that help you grow your practice and avoid burnout

You donโ€™t have to wait until youโ€™re licensed to start thinking about CE. The right support turns lifelong learning from stressful into manageable.
