The term naturopathy triggers different associations. It brings to mind people such as herbalist Künzle, naturopath Dr. A. Vogel or hydrotherapist Sebastian Kneipp and Hildegard von Bingen as well as Far Eastern healing methods such as Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) or Ayurvedic medicine. If you are interested in naturopathy and want to make it your main profession, you should always qualify yourself with a sound training in conventional and experiential medicine to provide the necessary basis for serious work.
In addition to sound specialist knowledge, a successful career in naturopathy also requires an aptitude for healing and analysis and a love of working with people and their health problems.
