Naturopath jobs

Naturopaths treat patients by helping them to access their own body's natural healing forces. Naturopaths believe that the body is naturally in a state of balance or homeostasis, but this balance can be disrupted by a number of different causes, including:

  • Chemical: absorbed from food, drink, atmosphere or surroundings
  • Mechanical: physical tension, posture or spinal problems can cause problems
  • Psychological: tension, shock, anxiety, stress

After thoroughly testing a patient, naturopaths may use any one of a variety of treatments to help restore their healthy balance. Possibilities include:
  • Diet and supplementary advice
  • Detoxification
  • Hydrotherapy
  • Physical adjustment
  • Relaxation techniques
  • Herbal treatment
  • Homeopathic medicine

In addition to any treatments they may prescribe, naturopaths are also dedicated to educating and advising their patients - if they have a clearer idea of how their patterns of rest, exercise, nutrition and hygiene affect their health, they can take better care of themselves in the future.

Most practitioners are self-employed, working either in their own practice, or as part of a complementary medicine clinic alongside a variety of other types of therapists. Business tends to grow by recommendation and word of mouth, so happy clients will be your best route to success. There are some jobs avaialble - for more details you should contact one of the following organizations:
  • British Naturopathic Association (BNA)
  • General Council and Register of Naturopathy (GCRN)
  • British Naturopathic Association (BNA)
