College of Massage Therapists of Ontario

College of Massage Therapists of Ontario CMTO is the regulatory body that oversees RMTs/MTs in Ontario. Follows, post shares, ≠ endorsement. See our Social Media Terms of Use: https://bit.ly/3dGlkKT

We exist to protect the public interest by:

• Setting the requirements for becoming an RMT so that only qualified individuals are allowed to practise and use the protected titles “Massage Therapist” (“MT”) and “Registered Massage Therapist” (“RMT”).

• Maintaining an up-to-date tool on our website, known as the public register or “Find an RMT”, to help Ontarians verify whether the person they ar

e visiting for Massage Therapy treatment is registered and qualified to practise.

• Developing and enforcing rules and guidelines for RMTs’ practice and conduct, including a Code of Ethics.

• Running a Quality Assurance Program to help ensure RMTs keep their knowledge and skills up-to-date.

• Receiving and investigating complaints from the public about Massage Therapy care and taking disciplinary action when necessary.
