The mission of the Zero Balancing Health Association is to help people experience health, well-being and higher consciousness by facilitating the study, practice and development of Zero Balancing. The Association was founded in 1991 to promote and support the teaching and practice of Zero-Balancing, a hands-on body/mind system designed by Dr Fritz Smith in 1973 to align body energy with the body's physical structure. It represents the integration of Eastern views of energy with Western views of science, and teaches how to use energy as a working tool in relation to body structure. The hallmarks of ZB are the integration of the client's body energy with their body structure; creating clearer, stronger fields of energy in the body/mind; and balancing energy in the densest tissues of the body, the bone and skeletal system.
