What Makes Clayton College of Natural Health Different from Other Naturopathic Schools?
Susie Hale: Clayton College of Natural Health (CCNH) teaches traditional naturopathy. This is the philosophy and approach to health based on the belief that the body has its own innate healing abilities if provided the proper environment, internally and externally. Traditional naturopathic doctors focus on educating clients on lifestyle choices that impact health. They may counsel people in right diet, herbs, vitamins, supplements, and exercises. Or they may recommend internal practices such as meditation to reduce stress. The goal is to achieve a state of homeostasis, to allow the body to return to its normal state and heal itself. Traditional naturopathy focuses on bridging the gap between building health and preventing disease. It’s not about disease or problems; it’s about encouraging health and wellness for the whole person.
