UK & Ireland Network of Practitioners
list of qualified and fully licensed Practitioners
The Equine Touch Certificate training leading to Practitioner status is now approved by Lantra and ensures our practitioners attain a standard of excellence appropriate to national requirements.
All practitioners have completed the ETF (Equine Touch Foundation) Practitioner Training and are fully licensed & insured to practice in the named modality:
ET – Equine Touch
VHT - Vibromuscular Harmonisation Technique
CT – Canine Touch
A qualified Practitioner is a graduate who has completed the Practitioners’ education track with a certified Diploma, having passed all written examinations, practical assessments and maintaining annual CPD by completing a specific number of hours needed to ensure the continued quality of ET/VHT/CT is delivered. They are also a member of the International Equine Touch Association (IETA)
Please check the credentials of anyone claiming to be a Practitioner but is not listed below. They should be able to show you a valid up to date IETA UK & Ireland Membership card, which is issued annually when proof of insurance cover and quality assurance evidence has been submitted.
Only the Practitioners listed on our website may charge a fee for offering professional ET/VHT/CT sessions. Neither ETF nor IETA-UK & Ireland can be held responsible if members of the public do not check credentials. If in doubt, contact the Membership Hub on ieta.ukandireland.membership@gmail.com or mobile 07976 242643.
If you are interested in booking a Practitioner, please locate the one closest to your area and give them a call/email to discuss your requirements in more detail.
