History and Philosophy of Naturopathic Medicine Curriculum

Naturopathic medicine has a rich history in Europe, specifically in Germany. Its roots are deep in the nature cure tradition, which used natural agents such as water, sunlight, fresh air, nutrition, rest, and exercise to promote optimal health and cure many conditions in patients. In Germany in the 1800s, many of the nature cure doctors had no formal medical training.
