A Brief History of Autogenics


Autogenic Training, also know as Autogenic Therapy, was originally developed by the German Neuro-Psychiatrist Dr. Johannes Schultz in the 1920’s and it was then introduced to the medical community. Schultz and his protégé, Dr. Wolfgang Luthe, joined forces over the next few decades, further developing Autogenics as a powerful therapeutic technique.


There have been over three thousand clinical studies showing Autogenic Training’s potency in healing disease, treating psychological disorders, managing stress, promoting general well-being and enhancing performance, resilience, decision making, problem solving and creative thinking.


Its applications are far reaching and as a result, Autogenics is taught at hospitals, medical schools and universities around the world and is being eagerly embraced by organizations for their employees and Sports Psychologists in their training of elite sports men and women.


Autogenic Training has been around now for almost 90 years and it has been popular across Europe, Russia and Japan for many decades and is now increasing in popularity in the United States. In Australia, however, there are very few qualified Autogenic Trainers. Most specialists in Autogenic Training were taught by Dr. Schultz or Dr. Luthe in Germany or Canada during the 1960’s until the mid 1990’s and most of the research and literature on Autogenics has been written in European languages, Russian and Japanese. As a result, few Australians have had exposure to this amazing technique.
