Introduction to Insight Focused NeuroTherapy (IFnT) | Level 1

Enhance your hands-on practice with Insight-Focused Neurotherapy (IFnT), a neuroscience-informed framework for osteopaths, body-based practitioners, and physical therapists. Explore how patterns embed in the body, shift entrenched neural and somatic patterns, and use insight-led techniques to support lasting, meaningful change. Join our 2-day workshop to expand your clinical scope and elevate outcomes.

Imagine your hands-on practice enhanced by understanding the patterns underlying tension, movement, and chronic holding. Insight-Focused Neurotherapy (IFnT) provides osteopaths, body-based practitioners, and physical therapists with a neuroscience-informed framework for achieving this. IFnT complements physical techniques by helping clients shift entrenched patterns at both neural and somatic levels.

Join our Introduction to IFnT workshop, an immersive 2-day training designed to explore what presents in the body, why it persists, and how insight-led processes support lasting, sustainable change.

2026 dates:

Queenstown: February 12–13

Auckland: March 6–7

Developed by Pauline Skeates, IFnT integrates research with practical, client-centred approaches, including:

  • Mind-Body Insights & Somatic Awareness: explore interoception, felt sense, and bottom-up functioning to understand how emotional and cognitive patterns embed in the body.
  • Neuroscience: guide clients toward adaptive neural re-patterning.
  • Polyvagal-informed regulation: support the nervous system, calm the vagus, and enhance safety before and after manual work.
  • Clean Language & Focused Attention: facilitate client-led discovery that amplifies therapeutic outcomes.
  • Emergent Insights: Cultivate Coherence, Awareness, and Meaningful Change.

IFnT is more than a technique; it’s a holistic framework for working with the whole person. Expand your scope, elevate clinical outcomes, and transform your practice.
