Consultations by State

Understanding Your Care Options by State

At Directional Vitality, we believe everyone deserves access to reliable health education and individualized support, regardless of where they live.

Healthcare regulations vary across the United States, including the licensing and scope of practice for Naturopathic Doctors (NDs). These differences help determine which professional services may be available in your state.

Our goal is to help you understand these distinctions so you can make informed decisions about your health and the services available to you.

Explore the information below to learn more about naturopathic licensure and health and wellness consulting in your state.

States Without ND Licensure

The states listed below do not currently license naturopathic physicians. However, this does not necessarily prevent residents from accessing health and wellness education and consulting services.

Directional Vitality may provide individualized health education, wellness guidance, and lifestyle recommendations in these states, subject to applicable laws and professional limitations.

The types of recommendations and services available may vary depending on your state's regulations. Our consultants work within these boundaries while helping you better understand your health and make informed decisions.

States With ND Licensure

The states listed below license or regulate naturopathic physicians, although licensing requirements and permitted activities vary by state.

Directional Vitality offers health and wellness education and consulting where permitted, with services and individualized recommendations tailored to applicable state regulations and each consultant's professional qualifications.

Naturopathic physician licensure in a state does not automatically authorize all consultants to practice medicine. Our services remain within each consultant's authorized scope, with an emphasis on education, prevention, and informed health decisions.
