2025: Creating a Registry
The Ministry of Health of the Republic of Bashkortostan has created the first official register of traditional medicine specialists in Russia, which includes seven practicing healers specializing in herbology, bone management, yogatherapy and acupuncture. This became known on January 26, 2025.
According to Kommersant"," permits for traditional medicine have been Bashkortostan issued since 2019, but the unified official register was formed for the first time. There are no similar open lists in other regions of Russia yet.
The first deputy health protection committee State Dumas Badma Bashankayev head noted that the creation of the register is an important step towards controlling the situation in the field of traditional medicine. According to him, not all regions are ready to implement such a project due to the need for a special examination.
President of the National Professional Association of Folk Medicine and Health Practices Vladimir Egorov said that in Russia there are about 100 thousand practicing folk doctors, of which only 300 have official permits from regional authorities.
According to the current legislation, healers without medical education can carry out activities only under the control of a doctor on the basis of contracts with medical organizations. To obtain permission, an application must be submitted indicating a specific method of traditional medicine and a submission from a medical professional organization.
Vice-President of the Society of Evidence-Based Medicine Specialists Vasily Vlasov emphasized the importance of control over the activities of healers by regional health authorities to prevent possible harm to the health of citizens.
In the State Duma, work is underway on a bill on the creation of a federal register of folk healers, which provides for amendments to the law "On the basics of protecting the health of citizens" and other regulatory acts. In the next month, the document will be considered by the relevant committee.[1]
