What is Registered Massage Therapy?

Registered Massage Therapy is a regulated medical profession that emphasizes the prevention, assessment, treatment, and management of conditions affecting the musculoskeletal and soft tissue systems. 

An RMT (Registered Massage Therapist) applies massage therapy techniques that focus on treating specific injuries (such as injuries from poor posture) and illnesses to improve a patient’s overall health.
