We at the SMA are proud of the high standards we promote within the industry

Our requirements for membership are exacting and we make no apologies for this because we want the public to be confident in the high level of skills and professionalism of the therapists on our register. 

Our reputation for quality means we are the first port of call for qualification Awarding Organisations requiring approval or advice, for the legal profession needing expert advice or witnesses, and for the media looking for industry opinion. Our Board comprises actively working therapists, representing different aspects of the industry: elite sport, multidisciplinary clinics, mobile and home-based therapists, teachers in colleges and university.

We completely understand the needs of the working Soft Tissue Therapist. 

You can be proud to be accepted as a member of the SMA
