NBCAAM Memberships

Support NBCAAM in it's mission to make acupressure and massage available to animals all over the country and the world.

We do this through setting high standards for entry to our profession, offering networking and educational opportunities, and supporting efforts to make laws favorable to animal bodywork.

We offer membership to practitioners who pass our exam, to students studying animal acupressure or massage, to schools that offer certification programs or continuing education, and to businesses that would like to support our work.

Member Benefits

Certified Practitioner Membership

Membership terms are two years, the first of which begins upon passing one of our exams.

Membership includes discounts at various providers.
Additionally Certified Practitioner Members get an enhanced profile and link to your website from our Practitioner pages.

To renew your membership for two years and retain your member benefits, including your enhanced profile in our directory, you will need to submit 20 hours of continuing education credits, and a 25 session client log.
