We're the association of massage therapists for massage therapists. AMTA is the only national non-profit massage therapy association, dedicated to serving members while advancing the massage therapy profession.

We have a history of commitment to service through standards that advance the profession, and engaging members in leadership roles to ensure value and relevance to members. 

AMTA is lead by a Board of Directors elected by the members. We have chapters in all 50 states and Washington, DC--providing volunteer opportunities, leadership development and continuing education locally.

We have open communications with members and we want to learn your opinions and what is important to you. We use those ideas and views when we make decisions. AMTA's strength comes from listening to members like you and incorporating your perspectives into what we do.

That's why AMTA will continue to be the leader in advancing the massage therapy profession and serving its members.
