How we vet massage therapists on Massage Near Me Guide
Massage Near Me Guide is an independent editorial directory. Every massage therapist we publish goes through the same multi-step review process, and our guides are written and updated by people with hands-on experience in the massage therapists, bodywork professionals, and wellness studios space.
Last reviewed:
1. Sourcing
We discover massage therapists through a combination of local outreach, public licensing data, professional association rosters, and reader recommendations from the United States community. We do not accept payment for inclusion in our editorial guides.
2. Verification
Before a business is added, we confirm that it is currently operating, that the contact details and address resolve, that any required state or local licenses are active, and that the business has a legitimate web presence we can link to. Listings that fail any of these checks are removed.
3. Editorial review
Every guide and listing summary is written by a member of our editorial team and reviewed before publication. Our lead editor is Tomas Reyes, Bodywork Editor (Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT), 9 years clinical practice). Vertical-specific content is reviewed by Karen Whitfield, LMT, NCBTMB, Senior Clinical Reviewer (LMT, NCBTMB-certified, 18 years orthopedic & medical massage practice).
4. Updates & corrections
We re-check every listing on a recurring cadence and update pricing, services, and contact details whenever we hear about a change. If you notice an error, an outdated listing, or a business that should be removed, please email us at editor@massagenearme.fit and we will fix it.
