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.

Due to strong demand, Early Bird pricing for the Saskatoon LDT1 course has been extended to February 23rd. This extension is being offered now, and there will be no further extensions after this date.

If youโ€™ve been thinking about adding lymphatic drainage to your practice, this is the time to commit.

Lymphatic work continues to grow in demand, and therapists who take this course consistently say it changes how they approach treatment โ€” adding a gentle, effective option that clients actively seek out.

Both LDT1 courses are already more than halfway full, and once spots are gone, registration closes.

Donโ€™t wait until Early Bird ends to decide.
