Welcome to the South African BodyTalk Association
The South African BodyTalk Association was formed to advance awareness, knowledge and research in natural, complementary, alternative and integrative medicine and to educate the public about the benefits of The BodyTalk System within the realm of healthy lifestyle and individual health/wellbeing management. SABA is here to provide alternative health care, education and support to the public, including previously disadvantaged communities through awareness programs and campaigns run in schools, community centres and companies.
What is BodyTalk?
BodyTalk is a natural health-care system, which is designed to work with, and support, your bodies’ own natural ability to repair and restore itself. A BodyTalk session is designed to re-establish and re-connect the lines of communication which enable the bodies’ internal mechanisms to function at optimal level.
What is BodyTalk for Animals?
As is the case with human beings, exposure to stress can lead to disease and malfunctioning within an animal’s body. The understanding that animals deserve their own type of BodyTalk inspired the evolution of BodyTalk for Animals.

How can BodyTalk Help me?
BodyTalk sessions are easy, safe and comfortable; they are done with the client fully clothed; there is no need for disrobing. A BodyTalk session usually lasts between 15 and 45 minutes. The length of a session is not indicative of the quality of the session or the results that occur; as even the simplest sessions can be quite profound. The bodymind knows just how many changes and corrections it is ready to initiate in any given session, and will therefore indicate when the session is complete and may even establish a time when you may need to return for a follow-up session.
BodyTalk can be used as a standalone to treat your whole system, or as a complement to modern medicine or other healing modalities:
- Stress
- Allergies
- Headaches
- Arthritis
- Cancer
- Endocrine Disorders
- Addictions
- Chronic & Acute Medical Conditions
- Back Pain
- Viruses
- Depression
- Chronic Fatigue

SPRING CHANGES MORE THAN THE WEATHER.
Longer days, more visitors, open doors, garden activity, different walk times. Spring can change your pet’s environment surprisingly quickly.
Animals cannot explain when a change feels overwhelming, but owners often notice shifts in behaviour, energy or routine. Animal BodyTalk offers a gentle whole-animal approach designed to support the body’s natural ability to adapt and restore balance.
What is the first sign YOUR pet gives when something in their world has changed? Tell us in the comments.

YOUR BODY MAY BE CARRYING A CONVERSATION YOUR MIND HASN’T FINISHED.
“Stress doesn’t always stay in your thoughts.” “Sometimes it shows up physically.” “What if you explored the bigger picture?”
When emotional pressure and physical discomfort seem to travel together, it can be worth looking beyond one isolated symptom. BodyTalk takes a whole-healthcare approach designed to support the body’s natural ability to repair and restore itself.
