What is Natural Medicine?



The practice of Natural Medicine is the promotion of health, the assessment of emotional, mental and physical state and the resultant Natural Medicine therapeutic techniques to improve emotional and adaptive function.

This includes, but is not limited to, nutritional and dietary therapeutics, botanical/herbal remedies, mechanical therapy (Reflexology, massage, etc.), homeopathy and vibrational medicine.



What is the Association of Doctors of Natural Medicine – Alberta (ADNMA)?



ADNMA was first formed as an association for all Alberta Doctors of Natural Medicine registered with EBNMP. Over the last few years, the Association has expanded to include other levels of membership, including all Wholistic Practitioners, Alternative Practitioners, Complementary Health Practitioners, and Manual Therapy Practitioners (body-workers) – as well as students of natural medicine who are working towards attaining the DNM designation.



Additionally we also have membership available to people and businesses, who provide services to our membership - health industry suppliers.



What is the Examining Board of Natural Medicine Practitioners (EBNMP)?



The EBNMP is a regulating body for all Doctors of Natural Medicine (DNMs), acting as an “umbrella” to unify practitioners globally within the field of Natural Medicine. However, membership is not limited to DNMs, and EBNMP has categories for different levels of practitioners. Members who are not DNMs have the option of staying within their membership designation or working towards DNM level.

Because the EBNMP has different levels of membership, so too, does the ADNMA.

Clinical Herbal Therapist

Specializing in Menopause, Diabetes and Arthritis

Clinical herbal solutions ranging from A-Z in herbal remedies are provided by the clinical herbal therapists from Oh Natural Herbal Therapy. Everyone is looking for optimum health. We wish to assist you with simple, safe and effective alternative methods of healing. Yes, the ancient and established ones that have stood the test of time.

Herbal medicine is the oldest form of healing known and is also a universal common bond between the peoples and cultures of the whole world. Herbalism is not just the knowledge about healing plants, it is the experience and wisdom from the relationship with people and plants.

Herbalism is becoming more relevant today in our modern society as more people are learning about the past. Everything is connected-mental, emotional and spiritual involvement.

Does the body affect the mind, or the other way around?

At Oh Natural Herbal Therapy we only have highly trained health practitioners who have studied and earned the recognised title Clinical Herbal Therapist. In Europe, they have a similar program, but they call themselves, medical herbalists.

In the United States, they have no national college, but they do have an association of herbalists that all have to be approved by, the American Herbalist Guild. Once approved, they can put the initials AHG after their name.

At our oldest college, Dominion Herbal College, the graduates have studied herbal materia medica, therapeutics, pharmacy, pharmacognosy, wildcrafting and cultivation. This includes herbs of Western Europe, (some) Chinese, (some) Ayurvedic herbs combined with some of our own North American ones.

Canadian Clinical Herbal Therapists are also highly trained in other areas such as nutrition, pathology, anatomy, differential diagnosis and biochemistry. Each one has spent 500 hours in a practicum and are capable of doing many physical exams.

We are your resource to better health!
