The Regulation of Complementary and Alternative Medicine Professions in Ontario, Canada Unregulated CAM professions may increase their likelihood of becoming regulated if they: (1) gain popularity/strong support from patients or the general public, (2) organize themselves sufficiently that they pose a direct threat to one or more scopes of practice desirable by the DSIs and/or (3) are willing to adopt standards in education, training, and ethics that may [initially] reduce their scope of practice or profession's membership or slow their profession's growth.
