The popularity of massage therapy today stemmed from the highly stressful conditions of modern living and harmful effects of unhealthy foods. Presently, more people are increasingly looking for holistic and natural healthcare methods to remedy their health problems.

Hence, no person shall be authorized to practice massage as a profession in the country without holding a valid Certificate of Registration (COR). The COR is issued by the Committee of Examiners for Massage Therapy (CEMT) and approved by the Secretary of Health. Massage therapy in the Philippines is being promulgated by the Department of Health (DOH) as a profession and a viable career.
