Why certified practitioners?


What is the most important reason for insisting on an NCBTMB certified professional? You are. Because whether you’re visiting a massage therapist or bodyworker for relaxation, rehabilitation or rejuvenation, you deserve to be treated by a practitioner who is both skilled and knowledgeable. And that’s what the NCBTMB credential stands for – a commitment to excellence.

To become nationally certified, a practitioner must demonstrate mastery of core skills and knowledge, pass an NCBTMB standardized exam, uphold the organization’s Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics, and take part in continued education.

Today, there are more than 91,000 nationally certified practitioners throughout the country – and you can find them in physician offices, private practices, spas, rehab facilities, health clubs and hospitals.
