The Association For Meridian & Energy Therapies - A Learned Society

The Association For Meridian & Energy Therapies is a learned society devoted to the study of energy work in all its forms. It was founded in the United Kingdom in 1998 by Silvia Hartmann & Chrissie Hardisty and was one of the first organisations established in the world for the study of modern energy work. The term 'modern energy work' describes the overarching concept that holds together a number of observable intrapersonal and interpersonal phenomena which occur naturally and may be changed and influenced through techniques and strategies described under the energy inclusive paradigm.

General Information about The AMT

The Association For Meridian Energy Therapies The AMT was formed in 1998 as the first non-profit umbrella organisation for the emergent field of Meridian Energy Therapies.

Membership is open to those who have taken the Certification Trainings and Associate Membership to anyone who has an interest in the wider field of Meridian Energy Therapies in both theory and practise.

The Association For Meridian Energy Therapies

1. The AMT was formed specifically to safeguard this extraordinary and emergent field from it's inception. This includes keeping the definition of Meridian Energy Therapies wide open to include not only the currently developed and developing approaches, but to encompass future developments with structural ease, thus fostering an attitude of continuing growth, exploration and innovation.
2. The AMT is the certifying body for the Certification Trainings in comprehensive Meridian Energy Therapies. With a fully structured, encompassing training programme which includes the Practitioner level, the Advanced Practitioner level, the Master level and the Trainer's level, the AMT Certification Trainings are designed to familiarise with, and help develop towards excellence, the new practitioners of this revolutionary field.
3. Born of the understanding that the New Meridian Energy Therapies are at every level applicable to and useful for ALL members of all societies or regions of this World, from simplified self help versions to the specialist and intricate high end work of professional therapists, The AMT offers resources to anyone wishing to explore and gain benefits from using the New Meridian Energy Therapies.
4. A very important aspect of The AMT is the work of publicising the benefits and learnings inherent in this emergent field to both existing therapists as well as to the general public on a global basis. The AMT's library portal is the central resource to this end, containing multi-lingual instruction documents in many different formats.
5. The AMT Portal is both a catalyst and a meeting place for all the many and constantly evolving, new and different approaches to Meridian Energy Therapies and Energy Psychology. Continuously updated with new materials and the latest results and work in process in the field, with international practitioner listings across the range of the METs, cross-contextural trainings and conference announcements, it provides a focal point where cross fertilisation for the entire community takes place.
6. The AMT sponsors the European Energy Therapies conference which is one of the most outstanding platforms for world wide exchange of learnings, advances and new discoveries in this exciting new field.

Code of Conduct

This code is designed to encourage responsibility and integrity in the practice of therapies. It may form the basis for discussion in the event of a complaint against a member.

• All practising members must have full up to date indemnity, malpractice and public liability insurance cover.

• Members must not prescribe drugs or advise a client to discontinue medication unless specifically qualified to do so.
• Members should conduct themselves in an honourable and moral manner at all times.
• The client’s ideals and beliefs must be respected at all times and the practitioner should not attempt to impose his/her beliefs on the client.
• If a member wishes to publish, in any form, a case history or part of a case history, the client’s written authority must be obtained if it is not possible to maintain anonymity. Members are encouraged to fully take part in the future development of Meridian Therapies and to this end are encouraged to report their research findings in a methodical and accurate way. Speculative theories must be clearly described and defined as such.
• The client’s welfare is of the utmost importance at all times. If this cannot be maintained, the member should terminate the therapy. Holiday arrangements or any other situation which could disrupt treatment should be advised to the client as early as possible.
• A clear statement of fees should be made before the commencement of treatment.
