About Us

Finding Inspiration in Every Turn

The Touch for Health Kinesiology Association (TFHKA) is a 501(c)(6) non-profit, member-driven national organization committed to promoting wellness through Touch for Health, a holistic system of self-care and manual muscle balancing designed to support your overall health and vitality. All the people on the TFHKA Board of Directors, our Committee Team Leaders, and Committee Members volunteer their time, energy, and expertise to support and give back to the TFHKA community.

TFHKA works collaboratively with the International Kinesiology College (IKC), which sets the educational standards for the teaching and practice of TFH worldwide to ensure consistency and excellence. As an approved IKC association, TFHKA provides continuing education for health professionals, supports the teaching of TFH by certified instructors, and has sponsored 50 consecutive years of TFHKA conferences for continued sharing and community building.
