PRESS RELEASE

 
IAIM® wins legal challenge for the trademark “IAIM®” against Infant Massage USA and International Association/Sweden before the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
 
The International Association of Infant Massage, IAIM®, located in Ventura, CA, has maintained and continues to maintain its original incorporation in the United States since 1986. IAIM® is the “grassroots” organization that precedes all other organizations who took on the name of International Association of Infant Massage throughout the world. We have evolved over the past 24 years into our modern day organization to include the finest group of CIIT™ (Trainers) and CIMI®s (Instructors) in our history.
 

IAIM®, trains and certifies Certified Infant Massage Instructors (CIMI®) who in turn teach parents and caregivers to massage their babies.

 

To maintain the high quality of classes we provide to parents we require the  instructors we train are required to complete the Certified Infant Massage Instructor (CIMI®) process. Each CIMI® must attend a 3 day or 4 day training, complete an exam and demonstrate their competence by teaching parent classes.
