Psycho-Bio-Acupressure
Psycho-Bio-Acupressure (PBA) is a gentle and transformative therapy developed by French physician Dr. Pierre-Noël Delatte. Rooted in acupressure principles, PBA addresses disruptive emotional states by applying pressure to specific points on the body. This method effectively releases emotional blockages, promoting emotional freedom and well-being. Suitable for pregnant women, newborns, children, and adults, PBA is a safe and gentle technique that fosters a healthy balance of mind, body, and spirit.
Dr. Pierre-Noël Delatte and Development of PBA
Who Was Dr. Pierre-Noël Delatte?
Dr. Pierre-Noël Delatte, M.D., was an extraordinary French doctor who created Psycho-Bio-Acupressure® (PBA) after more than 20 years of research. He graduated from the University of Medicine in Bordeaux as one of the youngest doctors in France at the age of 22. His passion for helping people led him through a career that included military medicine in Guyane and New Caledonia, and later private practice in Nouméa, Tahiti, and Réunion.
While living in New Caledonia, Dr. Delatte devoted over 15 years to exploring energy medicine, which led to the development of PBA. His work was revolutionary in helping people release emotional blockages and heal from the negative impacts of trauma. In addition to being a dedicated physician, Dr. Delatte was a skilled organist and private pilot, finding peace flying over the New Caledonian lagoon or playing music at the church in Nouméa.
Sadly, Dr. Delatte passed away on August 5, 2012, but his incredible legacy lives on through his team at the Delatte Institute of Psycho-Bio-Acupressure, which continues to teach PBA around the world.
“My father, Doctor Pierre-Noël Delatte, passed away unexpectedly on the 5th of August 2012. He had dedicated the past 20 years of his life to developing and sharing a technique that helped thousands of people around the world. His biggest desire and mission on this Earth was to help people. He loved humanity and spent his life improving the lives of as many individuals as possible. He believed strongly in preventative health care rather than curative methods and this led to the development of Psycho-Bio-Acupressure (PBA). Through PBA, he was able to help people liberate themselves from the negative impacts of traumatic experiences. He dreamed of a world with enough PBA practitioners and educators so that everyone would have access to this healing method. He lived his life with great faith and humanity in everything that he did. He has left a great legacy on this Earth and will continue to help people through his books and the excellent team that he formed at Delatte Institute of Psycho-Bio-Acupressure. We loved him and thank him for creating and sharing this wonderful method and new way of life.”

Dr. Delatte’s dream was to bring PBA to Australia, and while he wasn’t able to fulfill this wish in his lifetime, his method is now practiced worldwide, continuing to help people heal emotionally and physically.
