Welcome to the Institute for Complementary and Natural Medicine Website

The Institute for Complementary and Natural Medicine (ICNM) provides the public with information on all aspects of the safe and best practice of Complementary Medicine through its practitioners, courses and research.

One of the most important functions of the ICNM is administering the British Register of Complementary Practitioners (BRCP), one of the longest-running registers of its kind in the country. It is a multi-disciplinary register of professional Practitioners and Therapists who have provided evidence of their individual competence to practice.

Why come to the ICNM?

• Practitioners are trained to at least a minimum National Occupational Standards ( NOS)

• Each member is individually vetted by a panel of ICNM Advisors

• Personal service- members have access to individuals who can advise on a range of issues from training to practice development
