There are currently no state regulations or licensure laws governing the practice of Ayurvedic medicine in the United States. Certification is available through accredited schools where students are instructed in Ayurvedic healing and taught how to practice Ayurvedic medicine in a way consistent with laws that restrict the public from practicing medicine without a license. There is a growing movement among Ayurveda practitioners and professional associations encouraging state and federal recognition and regulation, which would provide a licensing structure and expand the practice of this already popular system of medicine.
