Member of the IAAMB
International Association of Animal Massage and Bodywork
The International Association of Animal Massage and Bodywork / Association of Canine Water Therapy (IAAMB/ACWT) was founded as a forum for animal massage and bodywork professionals to network and support each other.
Our members share a common goal of advancing the field of animal massage and bodywork, dry and aquatic. The IAAMB/ACWT encourages dialog among the animal massage and bodywork schools and schools of thought.
We enhance understanding and professional acceptance of the animal directed disciplines of massage, acupressure, Reiki, polarity, sound/music, healing touch, flower essence, aromatherapy, color and light therapies, and animal communication.
With increased understanding and communication, the IAAMB/ACWT enhances each of the many aspects and practices of animal care and its acceptance as an important part of integrated animal care programs.
This association is for the professional practitioner. If you meet our requirements and share our vision, we invite you to join us. To join, you must apply and have your credentials accepted.
