We offer the following diploma programs conveying the following credentials, within supervised hands-on programs offering required clinical internships:
Naturopathy Diploma Program
Title: Naturopath
To apply for admission, request an admissions application.
1) NATUROPATH DIPLOMA
Our core program, a 3 year experiential on site diploma program with supervised clinical internship. Areas of study, focus and practice include applied natural therapeutics, dietary assessment, world nutrition theory, herbal medicine, hydrotherapy, bodywork therapies, energy medicine, communications development, examination of case histories, parasitology, microbial balancing, vibrational therapeutics (flower essences, homeopathics), business development, and Supervised Clinical Internship.
Note that while there is some bodywork training in the first year of the naturopathy program, it is not a massage therapy program. Prospective students who have completed a massage therapy training in the past may find they are reintroduced to massage and bodywork concepts, during a limited amount of hours in the first year program- however these concepts are introduced and interpreted within the context of Naturopathic practice. We ask all students to approach our program with the "empty cup" mindset, open to fresh learning.
