I received a email from the CAMTC stating that my application was "pre-approved" and that I have to wait for them to approve me and issue a certificate number. Does anyone happen to know what kind of time frame this takes?
Good evening everyone,
I'm starting a coalition of CAMTC certified therapists in Contra Costa County to counter the illegal massage fronts that have erupted in the area. (For more info please check out my blog posting from thursday. It includes a link to a local article addressing the problems.) Please feal free to contact me and join my group "Certified Massage Therapists Coalition" for more info.
Thanks, Joseph

I'm returning to the profession after being away for quite a few years and doing a lot of things differently than I did before. I have a question for those of you in Cali. What is the best way to secure insurance payment with billing. I ask because originally I'm from WA and there insurance billing was no problem. What do insurance companies want from Bodyworkers in California.
I suggest we as a profession/vocation might be more concerned about our future prospects!
This is because according to http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos295.htm about 57% of us are/were self-employed, the median hourly income was $16.78, we worked an average of 15-30 hours per week and growth in employment of massage practitioners nationally from 2008 to 2018 is only expected to be 23,200 or just a 2,320 increase per year for the entire USA. These statistics seem to me to make massage rather a tough vocational sell given increasingly public concerns about the cost (or debt incurred for a government vocational education loan) for approved programs, licensing, equipment etc.
