Question
Hi Kay,

I have recently decided that I want to study Naturopathy and have been doing a lot of research online, including viewing this forum.

After looking at various schools, KCNH and New Eden School of Natural Health interest me the most. Firstly because they both offer degree programs and I also like the curriculum content - I actually like Eden's the most.

Which school do you think is better and will I be able to practice worldwide? I am currently living in Japan but am from South Africa and plan on moving back one day.

Thanks very much, your input is greatly appreciated.

Answer
Hi Samantha-I do not know the laws in depth when in comes to practicing natural medicine in other countries. That you must find out on your own.
New Eden is a new school. The curriculum does seem good, but because it is so new, I have no feedback or testimonies. When you pick a school, just be sure to get all your questions answered.
