COVID-19 Response Resources

Over the last several weeks, our massage community has come together in amazing ways to offer support and guidance to practitioners, educators, students, and clients. If you are curious what resources are available to you, or what our professional organizations are doing during this time to support massage therapy, we encourage you to read the information below.

American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA)

Associated Bodywork & Massage Professionals (ABMP)

Federation of State Massage Therapy Boards (FSMTB)

We strongly encourage you to monitor and abide by your state and local mandates and guidelines prior to considering your return to practice.

Free Continuing Education Opportunities:

Please Note: You do not have to be a member of AMTA nor ABMP to access many of the resources listed above.

As a certification board, NCBTMB’s role is not to lobby, however, we fully support the efforts of our professional associations doing during this time. We also encourage you to remain up-to-date with your professional association of choice, as well as the expert online resources—including information from the CDCWHO and your local health authorities—as this rapidly-changing situation unfolds.
