What does LMP refer to?
A. In Washington a massage therapist is referred to as a “licensed massage practitioner (LMP).” In most other states, they are considered a “licensed massage therapist (LMT).” A massage practitioner provides massage and hydrotherapy. Unless licensed in an appropriate field to do so, massage practitioners do not diagnose injury or prescribe medications of any kind, prescription or otherwise. We do work with other health care providers and can assist you in your recovery or recommend you see another health care provider when appropriate.
