If you are a healing
professional, you know clients have an unlimited
number of healers and therapists to choose from online. Why should
they choose you?
We prove to the public that our IHSPA members are here
because they care
about their reputation. Because members openly
state their education and credentials, affiliations, and other vital
information, which is verified by the IHSPA,
a level of trust and confidence is guaranteed for the consumer.
What can the
IHSPA do for me, a professional?
The International
Healing and
Spiritual Professionals Association provides you, the professional,
with a membership opportunity guaranteeing accurate
information to
potential clients regarding you and your practice. Through the IHSPA
website, the public can view your listing in the Professional Member
Directory.
We provide you with a code for our clickable seal to place on your own website, routing browsers to your verification page.
What kind of healing practitioners or therapists do you accept?
We accept any professional that uses a form of complementary and
alternative medicine, coaching, therapy, and more.
Our focus on alternative
therapies
exists because allopathic medicine, and professionals who use more
conventional therapies, already have many professional organizations to
choose from. We do not downplay conventional modalities;
rather,
we wish to provide access for alternative therapists and healers to a
professional membership organization which cares about quality
control.
Examples of complimentary and alternative modalities we accept include Reiki healers, EFT
practitioners,
Energy Psychology practitioners, ordained ministers, metaphysicians,
spiritual healers and practitioners, acupuncturists, acupressurists,
hypnotherapists, herbalists, homeopaths, massage therapists, spiritual
counselors, coaches, and wellness therapists. If
you aren't sure whether or not you're qualified to be part of the
IHSPA, please contact us. As long as your identity and
history
can be validated, you most likely can.
You mention quality
control. What are membership requirements?
Professional members are required to adhere to a code of ethics.
They are also required to submit copies of photo ID and
available
documentation for all listed educational experience (including copies
of certificates or degrees earned). Documentation is not displayed but kept on file in case your identity as a professional is ever questioned. All education is verified
by
the IHSPA by emailing or telephoning the school or instructor before
being listed in the Professional Member Directory.
Professional
members are required to submit, every six months, changes or additions
(if any) to their directory listing and activities as a
therapist/healer/etc. Our professionals are
also required to pay their membership dues on time. All this
is
our IHSPA "quality control" required to keep membership active.
My training was not
accredited. Can I still join?
Yes. The IHSPA realizes most spiritual and healing education
is
not government accredited. As long as you honestly state what
training you have had, and it is verified, accreditation is not
necessary for membership. Keep in mind that accredited
schools
will have the accreditation listed.
