Throughout the month of May, the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario (CMTO) and Registered Massage Therapists’ Association of Ontario (RMTAO) held joint Town Hall events across Ontario.

Together, we were excited to welcome 300 attendees, including RMTs and students, at our Town Halls. During these events, Maureen Boon, CMTO’s Registrar & CEO, presented an overview of regulatory changes impacting Massage Therapy practice and Michael Feraday, RMTAO Executive Director & CEO, discussed RMTAO’s key advocacy initiatives.

If you weren’t able to make these events, we encourage you to visit our YouTube channel to view the recording of Toronto’s Town Hall.

Following the events, all participants were encouraged to share their feedback via an online survey. Based on the survey responses, 96% of respondents indicated that the collaborative approach by CMTO and RMTAO to the Town Halls was effective. In addition, the vast majority of participants (83%) stated that they enjoyed the presentations and the information shared.

On behalf of CMTO, we’d like to take this opportunity to thank all attendees who took the time out of their busy schedules to attend the Town Halls.

Please keep an eye out for future communications with information on upcoming CMTO events planned for 2024-25.
