WMTA stands for the parent organization, the Wellness Massage Therapy Association. Our organization has some concepts that differ somewhat from the perception that most people hold of massage therapy. We believe that if you are only interested in massage as a way to make money, you probably don’t belong in the business. For reasons that you would learn, professional massage is a complex mind and body function that only works well if you sincerely care about helping the recipient. We have a client first policy that precludes all other considerations except the safety of the staff. We emphasize medical massage rather than a pampering service. We work hard to bring current medical practice and complimentary medicine together. Many in alternative medicine disdain the western medical doctor. We feel that this is counter productive, short sighted, and potentially harmful to our clients. We need the excellent diagnostic and surgical technologies available in todays medical field. The health care field needs preventative medicine and much more hands on assessment. We feel that the combination of current medical practice and complimentary medicine is important to the future of health care.
