15+ Years of Service
Embarking on its journey in 2009, the Energy Medicine Professional Association (EMPA) stands as a direct response to the heartfelt desires of professionals like you. It all began when the Healing Touch Professional Association members voiced their number one need - get professional liability insurance specific to the field of Energy Medicine. EMPA brings you a robust insurance infrastructure, freeing you to channel your energy into what truly matters – your clients.
Fueled by the desire to safeguard practices and elevate standards, EMPA's origins trace back to the fortification of insurance provisions for practitioners. This initial milestone marked merely the opening chapter of a grander narrative. Driven by an unyielding commitment to unity and shared growth among diverse energy healing modalities, EMPA expanded its embrace to encompass a vibrant spectrum of practitioners.
Our 15-year legacy shines as a beacon of distinction, championing the mission to cultivate professionalism, ensure practice protection, and impart invaluable education focused on safe practice. Through this ongoing journey, we continue to empower energy healers, holistic practitioners, and coaches, fostering a community where credibility thrives, and aspirations evolve.
