Natural healing involves moving from a state of non-health into health using only natural means.
Fasting to cleanse the body, using massage therapy to ease aching muscles, and taking herbal formulas to soothe an
irritated throat are good examples. Homeopathy, herbology, iridology, bioenergetic methods, and nutrition are
non-invasive methods of health practice which are designed to stimulate and maintain the body's intrinsic
self-healing processes.
Are based on the principle that healing will occur naturally in the human body if it is given what
it truly needs, that is fresh air, sunlight, proper diet, pure water, exercise and rest. Programs range from the
philosophy to the practical application of natural health modalities. Several degree programs are tailored to provide
the necessary skills and knowledge to become a naturopath, a natural health consultant or to integrate natural health
methods into an existing healthcare practice. Concentrations in herbology, iridology, or nutrition and lifestyles may
be added to your studies. Students who enjoy the discovery, interpretation, and publication of new findings, natural
health trends, and other related topics of interest may find these types of programs a perfect match.
Focuses on what, when and why we choose to ingest substances into, or restrict substances from, our
bodies; from vitamins and mineral supplements to organic foods and pure water. Electives that focus on practitioners'
skills are available at the doctoral level for those who wish to become nutrition consultants. Concentrations in
herbology, nutrition and lifestyles or iridology may be added to your degree.

organizational structures. Two-thirds of all private health services establishments are offices of physicians or
dentists. Although hospitals constitute less than 2 percent of all private health services establishments, they
employ nearly 40 percent of all workers. When government hospitals are included, the proportion rises to 45 percent
of the workers in the industry.
The health services industry provided more than 11 million wage and salary
jobs in 2000. Almost one-half of all salaried health services jobs were in hospitals; another one-third were in
