QANM is Quebec’s provincial association of naturopaths — rigorously trained, board-examined, and united in advancing the recognition of naturopathic medicine in Quebec.
We are the provincial chapter of the Canadian Association of Naturopathss (CAND) and an affiliate of the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians (AANP).
A Quebec where regulated naturopathic medicine is trusted, accessible, and integrated into patient-centred healthcare.
QANM advances naturopathic medicine in Quebec by representing and supporting qualified naturopathss, promoting high standards of evidence-informed and patient-centred care, and advocating for regulation that protects the public and expands access to trusted professionals. We lead with integrity and collaboration, responding to the growing interest in naturopathic medicine and the evolving healthcare needs of Quebecers.
Founded in 1994, the Quebec Association of Naturopathic Medicine, brings together naturopathss, trained and examined as primary care doctors when graduating from their respective schools, into Quebec to provide complimentary health services in a not-yet regulated province. The QANM exclusively represents naturopaths, who have graduated from CNME accredited naturopathic medical schools and passed the NPLEX or CONO licensing exams.
The QANM currently operates as a pseudo-regulatory board until the Quebec Government chooses to approve our file. We are currently working with the Office des professions du Quebec (OPQ) to create formal policy and regulation for naturopathic medicine and naturopaths, in Quebec, who deliver safe, effective and personalised care, for the lasting benefit of the public.
Advancing the reception of naturopathic medicine as a distinct profession in Quebec.
Providing the professional services, representation, and resources that QANM Naturopaths need to practice safe and competent naturopathic medicine.
Ensuring Quebecers can identify and access qualified Naturopaths who deliver safe, personalized care, with informed consent throughout all interventions and recommendations. Standardized record keeping and legal right to access files.
