The National Centre for Naturopathic Medicine is a health centre that views the health of patients through a naturopathic prism, with a core focus on advancement of naturopathic research and education, as well as the naturopathic profession itself. Education, Research and Advocacy are the core pillars of the National Centre for Naturopathic Medicine, with all pillars being of equal importance.
We aim to create and advocate a strong culture of incorporating holistic principles and evidence-based science into all aspects of healthcare education and practice. From investigating pain relief for cancer patients to working with government to develop self-care policy, we will empower patients and improve health by facilitating access to the best of integrative and conventional therapies. It is our mission to contribute meaningful solutions to healthcare needs through naturopathic education, research, and advocacy, in communities throughout Australia and worldwide.
