The Fédération québécoise des massothérapeutes agréés (FQM) had the honor of attending the unveiling of the 2026–2031 Government Action Plan for the 2025–2035 National Health Prevention Strategy, titled “Joining Forces for Better Prevention.”
The FQM welcomes this initiative and is pleased to see the government placing a strong emphasis on health prevention.
This event also provided an opportunity for several informal and enriching conversations with key stakeholders in the health sector and government. These exchanges were a great opportunity to promote massage therapy, particularly those between the FQM’s CEO and Dr. Caroline Quach-Thanh, National Director of Public Health and Assistant Deputy Minister.
Prevention remains a fundamental pillar of public health and must continue to be recognized as a national priority. It is the preferred approach for improving the long-term health and well-being of the population, while reducing the use of primary care services.
