                         What exactly does this mean?

                          In the State of  Texas  R.M.T.s are 
                          people who are trained professionals. 
                          To become a Registered Massage 
                          Therapist, in the State of Texas, one 
                          must acquire 350 hours of training 
                          in anatomy, physiology, massage,
                          hydrotherapy, and business at a 
                          State accredited School of Massage. 
                          In addition to training, a candidate
                          must take and pass a written exam 
                          and also pass a practical exam, i.e. a 
                          demonstration of skills administered 
                          by the State of Texas. A R.M.T. is also 
                          required to take 6 hours of continuing 
                          education per year, prior to renewal 
                          of registration each year. 

                          What else does a  R.M.T. do for clients?

                          Although most R.M.T.s are not trained in other 
                          fields, it seems that because of the nature of our
                          profession, most people feel comfortable enough
                          with their Therapist that they can confide in and 
                          open up to the Therapist. We become a confidant,
                          an adviser about health and fitness issues, a 
                          pseudo-psychologist, friend, and fulfill many other 
                          needs for some clients.                           
                          

                         
What  being a  R.M.T.  does not mean.!

                          We are not  psychiatrists, doctors or chiropractors 
                          and cannot cure physical or mental problems. 
                          We are not miracle workers,  if we were we would
                          charge a lot more! Many people have a misconception 
                          that R.M.T.s are escorts, purveyors of sexual services,
                          prostitutes, or what ever you may choose to call a 
                          "person" that satisfies sexual needs or sexual fantasies. 
                          If we were, we would charge a lot more money!
                          This is not what we do for our clients. That does not 
                          mean that a massage does not feel great and is not 
                          a pleasurable experience, because it certainly is.  Many 
                          people get a massage just to be touched by another person, 
                          and that is also a healthy thing because everyone needs
                          to be touched to be healthy. A good massage feels absolutely
                          great and it should.  But you should not go to a R.M.T. 
                          thinking that you are going to have you way sexually,
                          or fulfill the sexual fantasy of you daydreams.
                          We do provide a very beneficial and therapeutic service 
                          for your mind, body, and spirit and that is exactly what 
                          you should expect from a registered massage therapist. 
                          
                         
What about getting a massage from an unregistered person?

                          You get what you pay for!  A person who has not been trained, 
                          especially in anatomy and physiology,  may do physical 
                          harm to you. True a massage is not rocket science and it is 
                          possible to do a massage without training,  however anyone 
                          attempting deep tissue work without knowledge of the body may 
                          very well do damage to your body.  Most people not registered 
                          are probably only offering sexual services under the cover massage.
