Welcome
The Sound Therapy Association (STA) was formally incorporated in February 2011.
Though only recently established, we have collaborated on a voluntary basis since 2009 to create a professional, membership-based association for sound workers in the UK.
Membership is entirely optional on an annual subscription basis.
Our primary objective is to offer sound therapists and healers a set of clearly defined professional guidelines they agree to adhere to in therapeutic practice, thus enabling the public to have greater confidence in our competence to practice responsibly.
The STA's professional guidelines are based on templates derived from an evolving process of voluntary self-regulation for all complementary therapies in the UK.
We hope, in time, to align ourselves with one of the current voluntary regulatory bodies, if we achieve our goal of becoming a representative organization for sound therapy in the UK.
The STA Professional Standards have been jointly drafted and agreed by the British Academy of Sound Therapy, the College of Sound Healing and the UK School for Inner Sound.
