Welcome to the
Southwest Chapter of the FSMTA
Welcome to the Southwest
Chapter of FSMTA
Welcome to the Southwest Chapter of the FSMTA, the Florida State
Massage Therapy Association. The FSMTA is one of the oldest and
largest massage associations in the country with over 4500 members.
Our Chapter is one of 19 chapters covering Florida. We serve
Charlotte, Collier, Glades, Hendry and Lee counties with
approximately 400 members. Please browse through our web site and
get to know us. Our desire is to familiarize more people about
massage and its therapeutic effects on the body, mind and emotions.
Massage therapists are healers first in their hearts - they believe
in the healing power of human touch - and secondly through their
training. There are many different massage techniques being taught
today, sophisticated, complicated, simple, natural, and still more
are evolving. Each therapist brings a slightly different
perspective to the massage profession, as she or he discovers their
own unique abilities to alleviate pain and enhance wellness.
Seeking a
massage?
Whether you are a full time resident or one of our favorite
snow birds, or perhaps a visitor who is checking us out for the
first time, you have hit the jackpot by landing on this site. It is
a pathway to staying healthy, active and fit, mentally, emotionally
and physically (mind/body/spirit). You have landed in the midst
of legitimate professional massage therapy in Southwest Floridam.
Whether you are seeking medical massage, sports massage, cranial
sacral, energy work or other modality, Florida massage therapists
offer a wide range of modalities. If you only want a soothing and
relaxing massage to take away the day’s ouches this is
it. There is also a huge number of destination and day spas to
accommodate every wish for beauty and revitalization. If you
don’t have time for a full body treatment, a regular seated
massage of 15 minutes, fully clothed at your office or job site on
a specially-designed massage chair, could be your choice. A large number of our very well
trained massage therapists share their
skills with the many area chiropractors, cosmetic surgeons and pain
clinics, to name a few. To find a therapist near you, click https://secure.fsmta.org/searchTherapist.asp
and fill in the blanks.
