Massage therapy is a growing healthcare industry. In Ontario, your RMT is governed by the Registered Health Professions Act and has attended an intensive, evidence-based (lots of science) massage therapy program at a registered educational institution before completing grueling practical and written exams administered by the CMTO.
I chose Mohawk College for my program – and it is at least as hard as my Master’s degree. Through my student clinic and outreaches I’m gaining hands-on time before I work with the public, and can already see that it is the perfect career for my lifestyle, interests, beliefs and skill set.
