Doctor of Philosophy in Traditional Naturopathy

Clayton College of Natural Health features the Doctor of Philosophy in Traditional Naturopathy, which focuses on the use of those factors that are essential to traditional naturopathy like whole foods, pure water, fresh air, sunshine, exercise and rest.

Also it includes the history and theories behind traditional naturopathy and the importance of detoxification to maintain health. In addition, it includes three general elective courses and a fourth elective that must focus on either herbology or one of the sciences.

As with the other Clayton College Ph.D. programs, preparatory to the dissertation are courses in research design and current natural health research. All Ph.D. candidates complete a dissertation. Many graduates of this degree practice as natural health consultants.

Although not required for the completion of this course, students may elect to complete their courses and a practicum designed to assist them in building their skills as practitioners.

Many graduates of Clayton College have written books concerning aspects of natural health. CCNH offers support for students who want to improve their writing skills.

After completing this program students can enter into either the M.S. in Natural Health or into the M.A. in Holistic Wellness.
