Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council
CNHC's key function is to protect the public by means of regulating qualified complementary healthcare practitioners through a UK-wide register. The CNHC website lists the complementary therapies currently eligible for CNHC registration, which are: Massage Therapy, Nutritional Therapy, Aromatherapy, Reflexology, Shiatsu, Alexander Technique teaching, Yoga Therapy, Bowen Therapy, Sports & Remedial Therapy. Some other disciplines are currently working towards CNHC regulation, and these are listed on the CNHC website. The CNHC check qualifications of complementary health practitioners in these disciplines, who can only be registered if they have the appropriate training and qualifications. Once registered, their names will be added to the CNHC Register of Practitioners. This means that the general public, and those who commission the services of complementary healthcare practitioners, will be able to choose with confidence by looking for the CNHC quality mark.
