Naturopathic Treatment of Autoimmune Diseases

Online Course

Our Naturopathic Treatment of Autoimmune Diseases course is designed for students who want to explore autoimmune and inflammatory conditions through both a medical and holistic natural medicine perspective. Combining foundational theory with practical naturopathic strategies, this course helps students understand the deeper imbalances that may contribute to chronic inflammatory and immune-related disorders, while examining natural approaches that may support healing and improved well-being.

Delivered fully online, the course includes comprehensive lesson content, downloadable study materials, assignments, and a final examination.

Course Overview

This in-depth online course contains 19 lessons and explores the naturopathic treatment of four commonly recognised autoimmune and inflammatory conditions:

• Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

• Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (Lupus)

Throughout the program, students will examine each condition from both a conventional and holistic perspective, with attention given to possible underlying contributors such as food intolerances, psychological and emotional stress, systemic inflammation, dysbiosis, Candida overgrowth, SIBO, nutrient deficiencies, and other naturopathic considerations.

The course also explores a range of natural medicine strategies that may be used to support the body, including dietary therapy, anti-inflammatory protocols, supplements, and broader naturopathic approaches aimed at restoring balance and addressing root causes.
