IMTRC Research Conferences
International Massage Therapy Research Conference (IMTRC)
Massage Therapy Foundation hosts the International Massage Therapy Research Conference every three years. This event brings together massage and manual therapy practitioners, educators, CIM researchers, allied health professionals, and others interested in massage research from around the globe. We aim to educate massage practitioners about the research process and provide an opportunity to disseminate current massage research.
Mark your calendar for MTF’s International Massage Therapy Research Conference, April 27-29, 2025 in Alexandria, Virginia. Occurring every three years, IMTRC brings together therapists, researchers, and allied health professionals to communicate about the latest research in the field of massage therapy.
