Is There a License Posted on the Wall for the Masseur? In all but 12 states, massage licenses are granted by the state. Elsewhere, licensing occurs at the county or municipal level. Either way, the Masseur should have their license, certification and/or business license posted on their wall. You can also ask the Masseur in your Los Angeles neighborhood if they are licensed. The AMTA recommends you ask if the Masseur is a member of their organization. Members of the AMTA are required to abide by the massage laws of their state and county. Posted by joann_pim 3 Before agreeing to sit for a masseur, first check the masseur’s certification. Certification Indicates Proficiency and Commitment Research shows that the benefits of massage therapy for low back pain are greatest when the Masseur has many years of experience, and/or is licensed. Most licensed Masseur’s have passed the national certifying exam, given by the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB). Passing the exam demonstrates proficiency in anatomy, physiology, techniques, ethics, health conditions and more. It also shows a commitment to the profession of massage. Be sure to ask your Los Angeles masseur for their certification. Posted by Ian_Jeaneau When going to a Masseur at a Los Angeles masseuse for back or neck pain, it is wise to ask a series of questions of your therapist first. Your task is to find a qualified, ethical Masseur, with whom you feel comfortable, and whose skill earns your confidence. For people with back or neck pain, research is in order to match your condition to the Masseur’s skill set, ethics and level of commitment. There are Basic Education Required for All Massage Therapists. A qualified massage therapist will have had at least 500 hours of coursework behind them. Two states, New York and Nebraska, require 1,000 hours before allowing a therapist to practice. But the amount of massage education only starts there. Qualified therapists will have had additional training in clinical and therapeutic techniques. Posted by otisotte Masseur’s should have a Membership in Professional Organizations such as: Professional organizations such as the American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA) offer the consumer an opportunity to learn more about massage and to locate a qualified masseur. Members of AMTA agree to a code of ethics that comply with state and local law. Professional organizations provide opportunities for continuing education to their masseur members. The Associated Bodywork and Massage Professionals (ABMP) is another professional organization to which a Los Angeles Masseur may belong. Posted by p_worth Browse All Discussion » |
