6 STEP 2:Review Your Board of Massage Website Most states that regulate massage have Internet resources for massage therapists. You want to review this website now to better understand the requirements for your state. ABMP has quick links to each board of massage website. Review the visual guides on upcoming pages and go to Simply follow the directions on the screen shot of to find a direct link to the resources related to your state. 4

7 Step 2: Review Your Board of Massage Website 1. Go to 2. Click Become a Massage Therapist 3. Click State Boards & Requirements 5

8 Step 2: Review Your Board of Massage Website 4. Click on the state and details will pop up including the board of massage contact information. 6

9 Review Your Board of Massage Website 7 This is the board of massage website for Maine. Notice that links on this page describe everything you need to know to practice massage in the state of Maine. Explore all the links on your board of massage website to better understand practice requirements in your state.

10 STEP 3: Based on state requirements plan to take the MBLEx or NCBTMB exam MBLEx NCBTMB In some states you will not have an option as to which test you take. You will take the test required by your state. For example, Virginia only accepts the MBLEx and would not accept your application if you submitted results from the NCBTMB exam. In other states you have a choice. Carefully review the fees, application process, and testing process for both tests and then make a decision about which exam you want to take to obtain your massage credentials. 8

11 STEP 4: Make an Appointment to Take the Test Let s look at the process to take the MBLEx first. The MBLEx does not require an application to test because taking a test and passing it are not sufficient to obtain state massage credentials. Anyone can take the test but only a person who has graduated from a state-approved massage school and submitted the test results along with other required documentation would receive massage credentials. For this reason the process to schedule an appointment to take the MBLEx is easy. You simply log on to and click the link to schedule the test as shown on the upcoming visual guide. 9

12 10 Use one of these links to download the Candidate Handbook and schedule the test.

13 11 Explore these links to schedule a test and find out more information.

14 STEP 4: Make an Appointment to Take the Test The process to make an appointment for the NCBTMB exam is more complicated than the MBLEx but not difficult. In this case you want to download the Candidate Handbook and follow the directions. You will need to complete an application and then wait for a letter which gives you approval to test and directions for your next steps. When you have the letter you schedule a test date and time on as shown on the upcoming visual guide. 12

15 13 Click Applicants and then use the links to find more information.

16 Prepare for and Take the Test STEP 5: Both the MBLEx and the NCBTMB provide Candidate Handbooks which include content outlines. Content outlines tell you the subject areas covered by the test so that you know which topics to study. Both tests require a solid understanding of anatomy, physiology, and kinesiology. Use ABMP s Exam Preparation Form to plan study sessions. 14 STEP 6: Use the content outlines to plan study sessions. Review the Single Topic Study Sheet on the next page. Make up study sheets for all of the topics and sub-topics you need to study. Place the sheets in a notebook and review them regularly. Also plan to study with friends from your massage program. It can be very helpful to talk through information in discussion groups.

17 Prepare for and Take the Test STEP 7: Both the MBLEx and the NCBTMB provide online practice tests you can use as part of your preparation. This is very useful because you get a feel for the testing environment and better understand the way in which questions will be asked and answered. A number of massage textbook publishers offer exam preparation guides. The purchase of one of these guides (available on is also helpful. The following pages show you where to find the practice tests and provide one example of an exam guide. 15 STEP 8: Review the Candidate Handbook and make sure to bring the required testing documentation. For example, a picture ID is required. Show up early on the day of your test and make sure to have a snack before your test time. Warm up with practice quizzes and keep breathing!

On the Study aids page click on the Online Practice Exam link and it will take you through a payment process and give you directions for taking the practice test.

23 19 Here is an example of an exam preparation guide. This one is great because it comes with online practice exams.

24 5. Apply to the State STEP 9: After you have taken and passed your test you want to review the requirements for your state on the state board of massage website. STEP 10: Usually, you must complete an application and submit it along with a fee and other documentation to your state. Each state is different and so it is important to read the information on your state board of massage website carefully and follow the directions. The next page provides an example. 20

25 Each state board of massage website is different. Review all of the links on the website for your state now to understand how the website is organized and to prepare for graduation. This is the Washington site and you can see that it is well organized. It is easy to find the application form and the requirements for practice in the state. 21
