‍

Join the Nova Scotia Association of Naturopathic Doctors (NSAND) for NSNC 2026, October 23–25 in Halifax.

‍

This year, our long-running provincial conference enters an exciting new chapter as we gather for the first NSNC since naturopathic medicine became regulated in Nova Scotia. With regulation now in place and an expanded scope of practice approved and moving toward implementation, there’s never been a more exciting time to bring our profession together.

‍

NSNC 2026 brings together three days of clinically relevant education, connection and community — expanding clinical knowledge, strengthening professional connections, and celebrating an exciting time for naturopathic medicine in Nova Scotia.

‍

Open to naturopathic doctors and ND students from Nova Scotia and across Canada, this year's conference features continuing education in fertility, bioHRT, mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS), AI in practice, and interpreting research for clinical practice, along with an extensive tradeshow, meals, and social events.
