A charitable organisation formed in 1984 as the British Association for Autogenic Therapy and Training, the British Autogenic Society — as they have been known since 1999 — is the professional and regulatory body for Autogenic Therapists and practitioners in the UK.
The BAS is working to establish Autogenic Therapy, or AT, as a widely-used form of treatment in the UK – available on recommendation from doctors, health centres, primary care centres and schools.
Their primary activities are:
• Setting the educational and qualification standards for practitioners
• Providing professional training in Autogenic Therapy
• Raising the profile of AT so that practitioners benefit from increased awareness
• Maintaining and promoting the benefits of membership, including networking opportunities and the circulation of relevant information through the BAS newsletter
• Maintaining the links and continuous dialogue with other professional organisations and the medical establishment
• Supporting our members, friends and associates to undertake quality research on AT
