Board Certification in Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork is the highest voluntary credential a massage therapist can obtain within the profession—it is above and beyond entry level state licensure. By becoming Board Certified, I represent a community of therapists who have gone above standard educational and work experience requirements with a dedicated and lifelong commit to continuing education. Furthermore, I live up to higher standards and ethics in alignment with The National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB).
To achieve my Board Certification, I provided proof of a minimum of 750 hours of education, 250 hours of professional, hands-on work experience, passed a criminal background check, agreed to uphold NCBTMB's Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics, and passed the Board Certification Exam. By passing the BCETMB and meeting all requirements, I demonstrate advanced assessment and critical thinking skills, as well as a commitment to excellence. I wear the credentials BCTMB with pride for myself, my profession, and, most importantly, my clients.

I also had to provide a minimum of two letters of recommendation from healthcare professionals who worked with me indicating that I was not only ready to hold the title as a CNS®, but also that I would uphold the Board standards as a nutrition professional. I had to complete a rigorous Board Certification exam as well as provide a minimum of 1000 supervised internship hours in the areas of Nutrition Assessment, Nutrition Intervention, Education, Counselling and Management and Nutrition Monitoring and Evaluation with a licensed healthcare professional. To maintain my credentials, I must complete a minimum of 75 continuing education hours every five years.
