Tip of the Week


The National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB) has administered the national certification program which consists of multiple exam options.

The NCBTMB has delivered nearly 100,000 exams across the nation for those wishing to become certified massage therapists, with 80,000 practitioners in the field holding one or more of NCBTMB’s certificates. The certification program has been accredited for 15 years through the National Commission for Certifying Agencies. The NCBTMB is currently seeking accreditation through the American National Standards Institute.

As a prospective certified massage therapist exam student, you want to ensure that the facility where you take your exam is professional. The NCBTMB examines massage therapy colleges, facilities, job roles, and job functions every five years to ensure that the exam is up to date and aligned with real world applications and educations.
