Why Holistic Naturopathy in San Diego?
San Diego's wellness market has two distinct pillars: the military and veteran community (the metro hosts the largest Navy presence in the U.S., and Veterans Affairs San Diego runs significant integrative-medicine programs), and the tourism and hospitality industry, which produces a steady pipeline of service-worker career-changers.

The military-veteran pipeline brings unusual depth to trauma-informed practice work.
What you'll be training in.
For a deeper introduction to Holistic Naturopathy as a practice tradition, see the full program page.
Naturopathy is a tradition of wellness practice grounded in the principle that the body, given proper conditions — food, rest, movement, environment — has substantial capacity for self-regulation. Naturopathic practice supports those conditions through individualized lifestyle, dietary, and herbal recommendations, alongside conversational support around stress, sleep, and the broader life context.
In the United States, naturopathy lives at a specific regulatory edge. Twenty-two states plus DC license "Naturopathic Doctors" (ND) — a four-year, post-graduate medical credential through accredited schools (Bastyr, NUNM, NUHS, SCNM). NDs in those states can diagnose, prescribe certain substances, and operate as licensed primary-care practitioners. Three states (Florida, South Carolina, Tennessee) specifically prohibit non-licensed naturopathy practice. The remaining states allow non-licensed naturopathic practitioners to operate within a non-medical wellness scope.
