Dear Senator __________________,

I'm writing you to ask that you please support HB#2499, the Massage Therapists Legislation.  I am presently a member of the American Massage Therapy

Association, Pennsylvania Chapter.  Having a law that protects the public and provides for educational standards for Massage Therapists, is very beneficial

to our Pennsylvania citizens.  This legislation will also provide jobs and career choices when we enter the field, as well as provide the public with educated

and qualified Massage Therapists whom can be trusted in their care. We need standards for education and protection for the public from unqualified and

unscrupulous individuals.  This will raise the awareness of the benefits of Massage to the general public and also the awareness of qualified and educated

Massage Therapists.  The passage of this law will provide jobs and career choices for Massage Therapists throughout our State.  

I would appreciate the opportunity to speak with you regarding the importance of this legislation.  I have included my contact information, should the

opportunity arise that we can get together.    Thank you for your kind consideration and I look forward to hearing from you soon.  

Sincerely,

Your name
