ANME - Association for Natural Medicine in Europe

T&CM Register

Each method has its own methodology, its own approach, strengths and weaknesses. An important characteristic is the attention to stimulus and stimulus response.

Whats about T&CM

The terminology Traditional and Complementary Medicine (T&CM) has superseded what was previously referred to as, “non-conventional medicine.” T&CM includes all terms from traditional or natural medicine or naturopathy and also includes homeopathy.

Research and Studies

Presently there are many studies on the positive use of T&CM! Here you will find individual studies and also references to extensive databases. The T&CM community and ANME through its work continually engages in developing a fitting and realistic design for T&CM-studies.

Cultural Heritage - UNESCO

Acupuncture and moxibustion have been recognized worldwide as an intangible cultural heritage by UNSECO in Paris. In Germany, the Kneipp procedures have received this classification from the national branch of UNESCO. Currently ANME has sent in our application to the international UNESCO-Advisory Board.

T&CM Professions

Who can treat whom and how? Monopolies are constantly being set up, which decide whether the profession is legal or illegal. The implementation of the precautionary principle at the beginning of the 21st century demands every practitioner abide by accurate documentation.

Education

State-regulation or not — this is resounding question across Europe. Quality assurance, safety, effectiveness and efficiency should be guaranteed by training. So far, only health insurance companies and universities have defined what this actually means, but not professional and professional societies.
