The Naturopathy Professional Advanced Diploma Course offered by the School of Natural Medicine integrates the study of Naturopathy, Healing Diets, Herbal Medicine and Iridology. Naturopathy is a systemic approach to holistic natural medicine that recognises that the cause and cure of disease lies within the whole person – physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.
All students begin their Diploma Course studies by enrolling in the Naturopathy Online Diploma Course. Immersions are then enrolled in at your own pace as you progress with your studies, and are held at our sunny coastal home in Lake Worth Beach, Florida.
You do not need to enrol on or pay for your Immersion Trainings, until you are ready to do so. Immersion Trainings can be undertaken in any order and each Immersion is offered on alternate years. Once you have completed each Online Certification Course, you will receive professional diplomas (see prospectus) and upon completion of relevant Immersion Trainings, you will then graduate with the Holistic Nutrition Practitioner, Master Herbalist, Master Iridologist and Naturopathy Advanced Diplomas.

In the Naturopathy course you will discover the value of cause and effect, as you learn to use this natural law, along with diet, herbal medicine, essential oils, flower essences and supportive therapies to increase health and vitality, and to achieve balance, harmony and well being.
Naturopathy works with natural laws of living, and the principles of cleansing, rejuvenation and transformation to create effective programmes that integrate diet and lifestyle changes with emotional healing, supportive naturopathic therapies for acute and chronic conditions, cleansing, healing processes, herbal medicine, essential oils, and more.
Your clients will not only achieve relief of symptoms, they will achieve true health, as you educate them in preventative living, longevity and conscious respect in daily life. This course includes the study of diet and nutrition, cleansing and rejuvenation, supportive herbal treatments, Iridology, the full spectrum of naturopathic treatments and lifestyle, consultation skills, building a practice and more.
Students progress at their own pace and are personally mentored throughout their studies. Experiential self healing is a core part of this unique approach to study, which is combined with reading, research, writing, and expansive, creative projects, with a focus on understanding and personal experience, rather than simply rote memorisation – so that each student is empowered to embody and share their own learning, with depth of knowledge, integrity and authenticity.
Upon graduation, students receive the Master Herbalist, Master Iridologist, Naturopathic Nutrition and Naturopathy Advanced Diplomas. When students complete all modules for the Naturopathy Professional Diploma, they also qualify as board certified Alternative Medical Practitioner with the AAMA. The Naturopathy Online Diploma Course is also accredited by the AADP and Complementary Medical Association, and graduates are prequalified for practice insurance through Westminster Insurance.
