Empowering Healers, Doulas, and Therapists Through Energy & Education
At The Energy & Bodywork Research Institute (TEBRI), we bridge traditional healing wisdom with modern science to educate the next generation of compassionate, skilled practitioners.
Welcome to TEBRI — The Energy & Bodywork Research Institute, a school of research and professional training in Massage Therapy, Energy Healing, and Doula/Birth Work Studies.
We prepare practitioners to serve individuals and families with compassion, skill, and evidence-informed care. Our programs blend the wisdom of traditional healing with modern scientific research, empowering graduates to make a lasting impact in their communities.
Our Mission & Vision
Mission:
TEBRI is a research-driven school dedicated to the study, practice, and advancement of body-based and holistic healing modalities. Our mission is to educate and empower adult learners while generating research that deepens understanding of embodied care, therapeutic touch, movement, energy practices, and spirituality as essential components of individual and community wellness.
We exist to bridge lived experience, traditional wisdom, and emerging research—bringing credibility, structure, and visibility to holistic practices that have long supported human healing.
Vision:
TEBRI envisions a global ecosystem where education, research, and community care are integrated through MotherBaby Wellness Centers serving as living research and clinical hubs.
These centers will adapt to the needs of their communities and may operate as:
nonprofit (501(c)(3)) organizations,
for-profit wellness clinics, or
integrated services within hospital and clinical settings.
Through these hubs, TEBRI will advance evidence-informed holistic care while improving access to culturally responsive wellness services worldwide.
