About Us

---

The IFREMT does not provide education or training in equine massage, but rather sets the standards of qualification required to become a Registered Equine Massage Therapist (REMT) and maintains standards of practice and professional ethics for our registered members. We hold accreditation exams once a year, which include both a written component, and a practical component that is overseen by a supervising veterinarian. Though equine massage is not a regulated profession like human massage therapy is in many provinces and states, the IFREMT strives to apply the same level of qualification standards to our accreditation process as those established by the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario – the governing body for Registered Massage Therapists (RMTs) in Ontario.
