The Oregon Massage
Therapists Association

OMTA is an alternative grass-roots professional organization. We are a diverse, eclectic membership, dedicated to a collaborative, consensus process. We support creative new ideas and flexibility. We have a local Oregon identity, are self-authorized, and self-created.

We have faith that the OMTA process does work: we continually try to go beyond polarities to trust in the underlying unity. We dialogue in diversity, value compassion and respect, and accept our humanness, our vulnerability and our judgments. We are committed to working through our group process, appreciate feedback, and are aware of boundaries.

• We offer affordable dues: Only $40 per year, $20 for pre-licensure massage students.
• We publish Touchstone, a professional journal.
• We will list your business on this OMTA website in our Massage Finder.
• Attend OMTA's workshops and Annual Conference at special member rates.
• Network with other state & national massage organizations, the Oregon Board of Massage Therapy, massage schools throughout the state, other LMTs and other bodyworkers.
• Have your business listed in the OMTA Directory, a valuable referral tool available only to members.
• Current individual members earn a $5 referral award for each new membership paid in full.
• Receive a $50 membership discount with Associated Bodywork and Massage Professionals (ABMP) which includes professional liability insurance, Massage and Bodywork Magazine, and various business tools.

  Testimonial My massage practice is currently quite small as I work out of my home and I am extremely careful as to who I take in for new clients. I work almost exclusively on personal referrals. I do no advertising to the general public at all. I do, however, maintain my listing on OMTA's web site and this past Friday received two calls, resulting in three new clients, all new to the area and who found me via the OMTA listing. Furthermore, all three receive massage regularly and have booked future appointments. Thank you! Heather
