Our Priorities
Our advocacy work is guided by three priorities:
Public Safety
Helping distinguish licensed massage therapy from illicit operations and supporting tools that improve regulatory accountability.
Professional Mobility
Reducing unnecessary barriers for qualified licensed massage therapists while maintaining appropriate state oversight.
Healthcare Integration
Advancing the role of licensed massage therapy in healthcare, wellness, rehabilitation, and referral-based settings.
Interstate Massage Compact
IMTPA supports Illinois joining the Interstate Massage Compact (IMpact). Illinois has active legislation through SB 1756. Read our full explainer, position statement, and call to action.
