Advocacy Initiatives

Explore our main advocacy initiatives to uplift the massage therapy profession through federal, state, and health care priorities.

We collaborate with federal agencies, legislators, state boards, and professional associations to champion fair regulation, higher standards, and broader integration into health care systems. These efforts build stronger partnerships, protect licensure, elevate the profession, and amplify massage’s role in national health care conversations.
