We’re excited to announce Natural Medicine Week 2026 is taking place Monday, 25 – Sunday, 31 May. This annual initiative from the Australian Traditional-Medicine Society (ATMS) celebrates the vital role you, as natural medicine practitioners, play in supporting the health and wellbeing of Australians.
Natural Medicine Week is a great opportunity to come together, share knowledge, promote natural therapies, and raise awareness of the benefits natural medicine brings across a wide range of health conditions.
This year, we’re celebrating in a new way! We’re encouraging members to join a local Parkrun to help celebrate Natural Medicine Week, showcase our profession, and highlight the positive impact of natural therapies in the community. You’ll also be able to contribute blogs, share healthy recipes, and participate in media or government engagement initiatives, with guidance and resources provided to make it easier to get involved.
Learn How You Can Get Involved in Natural Medicine Week
Members are invited to a FREE lunchtime Natural Medicine Week webinar: Get involved and maximise your marketing on Wednesday, 1 April at 12pm AEDT. Join us to learn all about Natural Medicine Week 2026, discover how to get involved, and explore strategies to attract new clients by participating in this national public campaign in May.
ATMS CEO, Annie Gibbins, will share insights on how Natural Medicine Week 2026 is shaping up, highlight exciting new changes, and discuss opportunities for member participation – whether through contributing blogs, sharing healthy recipes, supporting government advocacy, or taking part in a local Park Run.
Members will gain exclusive access to a suite of promotional resources, including posters, flyers, and social media graphics, designed to help you actively participate in Natural Medicine Week while boosting your practice’s visibility.

ATMS is inviting members to get out into their community and show their support for natural medicine by joining their local Parkrun wearing an ATMS Ambassador T-shirt.
As an ambassador, you’ll help raise the profile of natural medicine, connect with local wellness-minded people, and receive a complimentary T-shirt and resources to help spread the word.
