For just $25 a year you can protect your access to health

The Iowa Naturopathic Physicians Association relies on membership to create and maintain legislation that provides cost saving, responsible medicine to Iowans.  We are extremely fiscally responsible and are mainly run using volunteers and donations.  We require public membership from patients and families of patients to provide consistent protection of Iowans rights to Health and Wellness options that save Iowans money while improving your health options and wellness information.  Please become a member today and continue to renew annually as long as you think health is important to you and all Iowans.
