  "I first heard about the AMTA organization mainly for their benefits which became my reasoning for the membership right out of massage school.  Through my years as a member and as a massage therapist, my desire to do something more was getting stronger.  I saw opportunities for ways I could be more involved.  I feel very blessed to be a part of this state chapter and happy to share my strengths with my fellow massage therapists."

I was taught the value of what your professional association should mean to you as a massage student, so I knew I always wanted to give back to the profession and help in any way I could. Volunteering my time for the advocacy of others in the massage profession has been the most rewarding thing I feel I can do with my career. I chose to serve because it’s ingrained in the very fiber of what we do as massage therapists.  We educate our clients and ourselves, we move forward as an integrative health profession, and we celebrate the accomplishments of ALL therapists and fight for our profession every chance we get. That is why I serve. I am proud to be an AMTA Member and to serve my local chapter.

I got involved in AMTA right out of school. I feel it is important to give back where one can and this organization has been very instrumental in my growth as a massage professional. AMTA offers great benefits with insurance, but also continuing educational opportunities, networking, and getting to make a difference in moving our profession forward.

Delegate

Our massage profession continues to press forward in its viability through evidence-based practice, while frequently defending against attempts at disintegrating our regulatory scope. I commend those within the Nebraska Chapter leadership who have taken on this charge, displaying a level of courage that has inspired me to join the leadership team as chapter Delegate. This representative role will allow me to expand promotion of our chapter efforts to the larger national network of AMTA collaborators. The more state chapters communicate professional challenges, and engage in productive discussion, the higher probability additional solutions will develop to forever establish our importance among the health, wellness and medical communities.
