In order to become a massage therapist, practitioners must graduate from a 2 to 3 year massage therapy program at a recognized college, and then pass written and clinical provincial examinations.  This allows them to use the designation “Registered Massage Therapist” (RMT) or “Massage Therapist” (MT).  These both mean the same thing and are restricted titles.  


RMTs are governed by the Massage Therapy Act and the Regulated Health Professions Act (the same act that governs doctors, nurses, physiotherapists, chiropractors, etc.) 

 

All massage therapists must regularly acquire approved continuing education credits to ensure they remain up-to-date, and must also participate in the quality assurance program which ensures high professional standards and quality client care.
