Biography
Dr. John Veltheim, D.C., B.Ac., is the founder of the BodyTalk System. A chiropractor, traditional acupuncturist, philosopher, Reiki Master, lecturer, and teacher, the culmination of his life's work was the BodyTalk System. He co-founded both the International BodyTalk Association and the International BodyTalk Foundation, which supports research and provides BodyTalk Access to underserved communities.
Dr. Veltheim's post-graduate studies encompassed various fields, including applied kinesiology, bio-energetic psychology, osteopathy, quantum physics, sports medicine, counseling, and comparative philosophy and theology.
Hailing from Australia, he operated a thriving acupuncture clinic in Brisbane for 15 years and served as the Principal of the Brisbane College of Acupuncture and Natural Therapies for five years.
Originating in the 1990s, the BodyTalk System emerged from Dr. Veltheim's extensive background and the discovery of a simple technique that corrected his own serious, chronic health condition. Dr. Veltheim's own health had been compromised for many years, despite being a leader in both eastern and western healthcare methods. John saw this seemingly simple method he discovered as a breakthrough and a new priority in his life. He proceeded to investigate the techniques and principals involved.
In 1998, Dr. Veltheim moved to Sarasota, Florida to further his practice and research of BodyTalk. Soon he began to teach advanced levels of the BodyTalk System to professionals as well as lay people. When word spread about the successes of this remarkable new healthcare system, he took on the task of training others to teach. Through the years, over 300 instructors have been trained to teach the IBA's courses in over 50 countries and in numerous languages.
Dr. Veltheim contributed significantly to literature, authoring numerous articles on the BodyTalk System and related subjects, some of which were published in the Journal of Alternative Medicine Research. His pioneering work led the journal to dedicate an entire volume to articles about BodyTalk.
A published author in Reiki, acupuncture, and BodyTalk, Dr. Veltheim developed multiple BodyTalk courses and introduced the PaRama BodyTalk program, uniting science and healing at the highest level.
Over the last two decades of his life, Dr. Veltheim traveled the world, teaching and providing sessions in BodyTalk and its related wellness programs to professionals and laypeople alike. He established a network of instructors worldwide to expand the reach of this transformative healthcare system, ensuring it could serve and support as many communities as possible.
Dr. Veltheim passed away on November 22, 2022. The ongoing mission of the IBA and its Instructors is to uphold his vision and perpetuate his legacy.
