Members approach health from a comprehensive perspective, utilizing preventive medical techniques and less­invasive, more natural methods of patient management." The organization focuses specifically on federal legislation and regulations that affect the practitioner's ability to use alternative and complementary therapies and the patient's right to make choices in their healthcare. The AAHF Web site has free full text access to news, legislative alerts, position papers, and back issues of the association newsletter, Director's Reports.
