The AIMA Conference 2020 is New Zealand’s leading event for the integrative medicine community. A ‘must-do’ for all doctors, health practitioners, students and members of the public who want to open their minds to the advantages that integrative medicine can provide to their lives and practices.

We have a fantastic line-up of passionate speakers from the United Kingdom, America, Australia, and New Zealand. A full list of speakers can be found HERE.
Hosted at AUT, in Auckland’s vibrant city centre, the conference is a great opportunity to network and socialise with speakers and like-minded practitioners whilst learning about the latest clinical and evidence-based information.

MedCan 2020 Summit
New Zealand Pain Society Annual Scientific Meeting
19th Mar 2020 - 21st Mar 2020, Bay of Islands
The title of the meeting for 2020 is “Making the Connection: Cortex, Culture and Community". All of us at some time in our lives will experience pain; for many of us that is a short lived experience and we move on but for around 20% or more of the population that pain continues and can become a disabling, distressing and disrupting experience and frequently a challenging issue for health providers working with people in this situation.
The meeting in Waitangi provides with the opportunity to gather, discuss, learn, share knowledge, evidence, best practice and debate to assist with providing up to date approaches to this challenging area of health care. Part of the focus of “Making the Connection” will be looking at and sharing ways to deliver services to Tangata Whenua and also to people outside of main centres in areas where Specialists are not available and where access can be a challenge. International speakers will bring their expertise along with a wide range of New Zealand based clinicians and researchers.
Look out for abstract information in July 2019!
