The College
The College is open to anyone wishing to learn about food and nutrition and how it impacts our wellbeing.
The College provides a unique reference point for all levels of students, ranging from short, home-study courses for personal education, family and friends, to attendance/correspondence courses with certification and insurance to Practitioner level.
Conventional medicine falls short of providing all the answers to everyday illness and an ever-increasing number of people are seeking out complementary therapies.
Fuelled by everyday concerns about diet and nutrition, the area of health and fitness has become one of today’s fastest-growing industries. People are now more concerned with their health and wellbeing than at any other time in history and this has brought about a greater appreciation of complementary therapies. This in turn has created not only a need, but also a demand for professionally trained individuals.
Nature
The College of Naturopathic Nutrition – Nutrition training and courses in Woking
Nature’s has always had answers to the ills of Man: it is we who have forgotten how to use the lessons that nature has taught us in the past. Hippocrates, one of history’s greatest healers, learned centuries ago that Nature is the most powerful healer of all, saying, “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.” It was the students and disciples of Hippocrates who first viewed and treated disease as disturbances caused by the on-going effect of natural phenomena such as the food we eat, the air we breathe and the water we drink. Practitioners from the Hippocrates school referred to their treatment as Vis medicatrix naturae, the healing power of nature. They firmly believed in the body’s power of regeneration and ability to heal itself naturally.
There is a pervading thread that runs through all the courses. This intractable thread concerns the empowerment of the individual to take responsibility for their own wellbeing using only what Nature has provided in its true natural state and as Nature intended.
The courses offer students safe, theoretical and practical training. Upon successful completion of the course, students will find themselves equipped with the necessary knowledge, expertise and confidence to safely use their knowledge for family and personal use, or within the community with the higher qualifications. A competent graduate will be able to make a successful diagnosis and determine whether or not intervention is required and how best to help the body’s natural healing and regeneration process. The ultimate achievement is, of course, self empowerment the good health of one’s self, family and clients.
