My wife, the LMT

16 July 2007

It's official: my wife is now a Licensed Massage Therapist. She passed her state boards! Ohio is the only state in the U.S., to our knowledge, which tests and licenses it's massage therapists through its state medical board. So yeah, she's legit. In addition to her B.A. in Marketing/Business, she now holds an official L.M.T.

Oddly enough, some states don't even license massage therapists (ahem: Indiana). Anyone can call themselves a massage therapists and set up shop. Word of warning: be sure that your massage therapist is licensed through a credible board/agency.

And no, it is NOT OK to refer to her as a 'masseuse'. That term is outdated, and implies something VERY, VERY different than medically based massage therapy (you know what I mean).

And yes, I realized what I lucky guy I am to be married to a massage therapist.
