Whether your interest is in a particular skill or in certification, the School of Natural Healing has courses to fit your needs.
The School of Natural Healing was founded in 1953 by Dr. John R. Christopher. For over 50 years the School of Natural Healing has been the means for thousands of students to begin and further their herbal knowledge and wisdom.
Few things are as rewarding and satisfying as being able to care for your own health and your family's health. And there is no safer avenue than herbal and natural healing. Yet many people become overwhelmed at the prospect of herbal study towards becoming their own healer.
The School of Natural Healing's Master Herbalist Program will show you that you can take care of your own health, and that it is not as difficult as you may think. In as little as an hour a day, you could become a qualified healer and teacher in less than 2 years - all in the comfort of your own home.

Our courses are designed to teach herbalism from the ground up - beginning with foundational understandings of natural methodologies, and progressing through the many aspects of herbal healing, including herb identification, horticulture, medicinal usages, methods of preparation, and more. Students who complete the Master Herbalist program are prepared to take care of both themselves and their families, and to share their knowledge and wisdom in the service of educating others.
Our School curriculum and philosophy is built upon the understanding and practice of four fundamental principles.
1. Preventive Nutrition
2. Eradicating the Cause of Disease
3. Healing the Body through Natural Methods
4. Education
