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

Many teens appreciate that BodyTalk is:
✔ Gentle
✔ Non-invasive
✔ Relaxing
✔ Done fully clothed

Happy Birthday Emma. Wishing you a wonderful day 🎊
Emma Williams is a dedicated BodyTalk Practitioner and holistic healer based in Tokai, Cape Town, whose journey into natural healthcare began with a deeply personal experience. In 2004, after seeking help for her young son’s chronic ear infections, she witnessed the remarkable impact of BodyTalk when his recurring infections resolved completely. Inspired by these results, Emma explored the BodyTalk System for her own health challenges, finding significant improvements in her emotional wellbeing, digestive health, and hormonal balance. These transformative experiences sparked a passion for understanding the body's innate ability to heal and led her to become a certified BodyTalk Practitioner in 2008.
Committed to continual learning, Emma has expanded her expertise through training in Muscle Activation, Family Constellations, TRE (Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises), Fascia Release Therapy, and Gestalt Counselling. By integrating these complementary modalities, she offers a compassionate, whole-person approach that addresses the underlying causes of physical, emotional, and mental imbalances rather than simply managing symptoms. Emma believes that each person holds an incredible capacity for healing within themselves, and her role is to help clients reconnect with that inner wisdom. Through thoughtful guidance, deep listening, and the BodyTalk System, she supports individuals in creating lasting balance, resilience, and meaningful transformation in their lives.
