Dear Supporters,

I’m thrilled to share that our petition to license naturopathic doctors in Ohio has gained 47 supporters and some generous donations—thank you for standing with us!

For those who may be new to this cause, naturopathic medicine is a distinct system of healthcare with a rich history dating back to the late 19th century. It emphasizes treating the whole person—body, mind, and spirit—rather than just addressing symptoms. Naturopathic doctors focus on prevention, natural therapies, and patient-centered care, combining modern science with traditional healing practices.

I also believe that naturopathic doctors work best as part of a collaborative healthcare team, complementing conventional medicine to provide comprehensive, well-rounded care. Licensing naturopathic doctors ensures that Ohioans have access to safe, professional, and regulated holistic healthcare while promoting cooperation across all medical disciplines.

Your support brings us closer to creating a system where everyone can benefit from whole-body wellness. Please continue to share the petition and help us grow this movement. Every signature and donation helps bring us one step closer to this important goal!

With gratitude,
