Welcome to the website of the Fédération québécoise des massothérapeutes. Whether you're a professional or a client, you will find all the information you need about massage therapy, massage therapists’ professional training and public protection.
Since 1979, the FQM is one of the leading forces of massage therapy in Quebec and works towards recognition by various provincial governmental bodies. To meet high standards of professional quality, the FQM was built like a College of professional massage therapists, with rigorous supervision mechanisms to protect the public and provide credibility to the profession of massage therapist.
In its quest for excellence, the FQM is working with people of heart whose goals are the reputation of massage therapy and quality care. Participate in a healthier Quebec, is the daily effort of the FQM community!
Face à une campagne de peur et de désinformation contre la création d’un ordre professionnel, menée par des membres provenant d’autres associations, nous estimons important de rappeler les valeurs qui sous-tendent chacune des actions menées par la FQM :
Chers membres,
Plusieurs d’entre vous nous ont contactés suite à la réception du courriel envoyé par Massothérapie Québec (ci-après : MQ) intitulé « ordre professionnel en massothérapie : à vous la parole ! ». Dans ce courriel, MQ expose des arguments destinés à mobiliser, par la peur, les massothérapeutes contre la création d’un ordre professionnel au Québec.
The FQM innovates with its project “Massage therapists without borders” which aims at improving, through massage therapy, the conditions or health of vulnerable populations. The FQM gives priority to projects involving developing countries and victims of natural disasters. The support can be offered directly by providing massage, but also, for example, by teaching parents how to give massages to their children.
Over the last few years, Internet fraud is on the rise. That’s why it’s crucial to stay extremely careful when someone requires your services via email, especially when the customer lives abroad.
Whether it’s to offer a share from an inheritance or an excellent investment, in general if the offer is too good to be true, in most cases this proves to be a scam.
