Provinces where the practice of naturopathy is regulated

If you are practicing in a province in which the practice of Naturopathy (ND) is regulated (British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario or Nova Scotia), you must be a member of the regulatory body relevant to this province in order to be recognized naturopath. Since 2011, some insurers like Cooperators, Empire Life, Canada Life, Greenshields, Manulife, Medavie Blue Cross, RWAM and Sun Life decided to reimburse only if you are recognized naturopath by the provincial body. In Ontario, for example, you have to be a member of the College of Naturopaths of Ontario (CONO) to be reimbursed. The other insurers however, still reimburse the costs of naturopathy even in regulated provinces.
