Classifieds

AMT Web Classifieds is available to AMT members and non-members.

There is a fee of $25.00 for AMT members and $100 for non-members for advertisements to a maximum 100 words.

You can submit your copy online by using the booking form here. Ads will be published for two months.

Please note: AMT will not advertise positions that pay by piece rates/per massage because these do not comply with Fair Work and NES provisions. We will only advertise massage-related goods and services, and other relevant notices. We cannot advertise the private clinics of individual AMT members.

COVID-19 awareness campaign

On Sunday March 15, AMT launched a campaign to raise awareness of the need for Government stimulus to support massage therapists to cease client treatments and to help massage therapists navigate their response to COVID-19. Here are resources used during that campaign.
