Complementary Medical Association

The CMA is a not-for-profit organisation which means that any funds we raise, through membership fees, book and product sales or donations are invested straight back into the organisation. The CMA is great news for professional practitioners, ethical colleges and patients who demand and expect excellence in every aspect of treatment. The CMA was established in early 1995, in response to the overriding lack of public and medical knowledge about the complementary medical profession. The CMA opened its doors to members at the beginning of 1998 and to date, The CMA represents the interests of thousands of practitioners in various categories - including students and 130 college members with additional organisations approaching us regularly. The main mission and objectives of Complementary Medical Association's (The CMA) primary aim is to promote ethical, responsible, professional complementary medicine to the public and the medical profession. It believe that by promoting The CMA and it's Registered Members though the media, they are able to help the public and doctors to realise that complementary and integrative medicine is - when delivered safely and ethically - a viable and highly desirable form of healthcare. In addition, here at The CMA, are totally dedicated to representing "the professional face of complementary medicine" and by promoting research, education and knowledge in the field, we will help to stimulate demand for the medicine of the 21st century and beyond. A great part of this work consists of referring public and conventional medics alike to CMA registered practitioners so that they can be assured that treatment will be delivered by a highly qualified, insured practitioner who adheres to a strict Code of Ethics and disciplinary procedure and call this the "CMA Referrals Scheme".
