Call to Action for Proposed Amendment to Affect Massage Therapy Industry

By: Admin

Margaret Alfieri, Atlanta School of Massage Program Director and other leaders from ASM attended the American Massage Therapy Association, (AMTA) chapter meeting in Sandy Springs on Tuesday, November 19, 2014. They discussed the proposed amendment by the The Georgia Massage Licensing Board to limit the acceptance of certain energy and bodywork techniques as valid massage therapy modalities. If adopted, the Board would no longer accept continuing education in the modalities of structural integration, reflexology, movement practices, and energy practices.
