(1)

The NHAA was incorporated in 1920 and is the oldest complementary medicine association in Australia. The NHAA has a long record of working behind the scenes for the interests of herbal medicine. At the "big picture" level, protecting and advancing the profession is important for the entire country and allows the public greater access to a viable and effective treatment option. This creates greater

demand for the high standard of health care service provided by our practicing members. This work requires constant vigilance and long hours of effort by the Board of Directors. Involvement in various committees and discussion groups, and production of submission papers and media releases are among the many activities of the Board. We have an engaged and passionate membership base, with three active local chapters in Melbourne (), Sydney () and Qld ().

Our Story

The NHAA was incorporated in 1920 and is the oldest complementary medicine association in Australia. The NHAA has a long record of working behind the scenes for the interests of herbal medicine. At the "big picture" level, protecting and advancing the profession is important for the entire country and allows the public greater access to a viable and effective treatment option. This creates greater demand for the high standard of health care service provided by our practicing members. This work requires constant vigilance and long hours of effort by the Board of Directors. Involvement in various committees and discussion groups, and production of submission papers and media releases are among the many activities of the Board.

We have an engaged and passionate membership base, with three active local chapters in Melbourne (@vicherbs), Sydney (@sydherbs) and Qld (@seqherbs).
