Barral Institute

Barral Institute is an education, research, and healthcare organization devoted to an integrative, whole-person model of manual therapy shaped by the work of Jean-Pierre Barral. Based in Palm Beach Gardens, the institute focuses on biomechanics, the body’s response to strain and restriction, and hands-on methods that view the body as an interconnected system. Its work bridges research, teaching, and clinical application, with disciplines advanced through its International Teaching Team and grounded in Barral’s longstanding study of osteopathy and related manual therapies.
