American Polarity Therapy Association (APTA)

The American Polarity Therapy Association is the professional home of polarity therapy, the energy-healing system developed by Dr Randolph Stone that combines touch, exercise, nutrition and self-awareness to restore a balanced distribution of the body's energy. APTA welcomes students, practitioners, educators, clients and colleagues, with a stated mission to create an interactive community and expand the awareness of Polarity Therapy worldwide.

The association runs the field's professional machinery: certification for practitioners (with first-time applicant guidance and published ethics), a school directory of training programs, a member directory and membership benefits, a polarity library, and news. It convenes the field at an annual conference, with the 2026 conference recapped on its site and prior conferences archived.

APTA frames the practice plainly: polarity therapy is a truly holistic practice that meets people where they are, facilitates personal transformation, and lets clients look at what they carry as pain, stress and disease. The organization publishes the origins of the practice and Stone's system alongside a practitioner finder so the public can experience the work directly. The institution's stated mission: To create an interactive community and expand the awareness of Polarity Therapy worldwide.
