Become certified in Clinical Orthopedic Massage Therapy (COMT).

Clinical Orthopedic Massage Therapy Certification involves a series of five in-person workshops and two distance learning courses. Together, these workshops and courses address advanced clinical orthopedic assessment and treatment techniques, as well as musculoskeletal pathology, and kinesiology for the entire body.

Each in-person workshop offers a Certificate of Completion and continuing education (CE) hours through the National Certification Board for Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB). Each distance learning course is divided into chapters/modules and offers Certificates of Achievement and CE hours through the NCBTMB (see workshops / distance learning page for more details).

After completing all five in-person workshops and the two distance learning courses, a Certificate of Achievement is awarded that certifies you as a Clinical Orthopedic Massage Therapist (COMT), designating you as an advanced orthopedic therapist.

The in-person workshops and distance learning courses are:

• Clinical Orthopedic Massage Techniques for the Neck (2 days - 16 CE hours)
• Clinical Orthopedic Massage Techniques for the Low Back and Hip (2 days - 16 CE hours)
