I can't login to
the members' section. How do I do this?
The "Member ID" is your membership number.
You may find this number on the front of your membership
card, or on the address label of MTJ
or the Hands On newsletter. The password is your last name.
If your login is successful, a page will appear with a welcome
message using your first name. If this does not work, make
sure cookies are enabled in your browser. In Internet Explorer,
this is done by selecting "Internet Options" from the "Tools"
menu, clicking on the "Privacy" tab, and adjusting the Privacy
Level. A Privacy Level of "Medium" is best.

listed in AMTA's Find
a Massage Therapist national locator service. Why am
I not listed?
Listing in the

list Professional Active members. To be listed, you may
