Did you know melanoma is one of the deadliest types of skin cancer? Shockingly, the rate of melanoma is rising faster than any other preventable cancer in the U.S. This could be due to the increasing amount of time we spend in the sun.

Clients, family, friends, and clients, friends I am yet to meet.
When you can, please visit the IMpact Massage Therapy website and send a letter of support to your state legislators.
Illinois has a compact bill filed and in committee at this time. We need to let Illinois legislators know this bill will be a great law!
Not only will the massage compact allow massage therapists to practice in participating states and help in getting military personal and their families back to work sooner BUT there are ALSO intentions in this law to help curb human trafficking. This bill adds tools for participating states to more thoroughly vet those that want to come into Illinois and practice massage therapy.
Thank you!!!

With pending IMpact legislation in 9 states, your voice matters more than ever! If you haven't already completed the IMpact Survey, please visit massagecompact.org/take-action or scan the QR code and make sure your voice is heard!

From that page you can also send letters of support directly to your legislators! Simply scroll down, click on your state and follow the instructions! Here are the states with pending legislation as of February 11, 2025.
Alabama
Arkansas
Connecticut
Georgia
Illinois
Maine
Montana
New York
Virginia

If your state does not have pending legislation select the "IMpact General Letter of Support" to let your legislators know you would like the IMpact introduced in your state.

Every day brings us closer to professional mobility!
