Every Client Is Different & Your Education Should Prepare You for That
Every client brings a different story, and the same concern can look different from one person to the next. Students learn how food, lifestyle, behaviour, environment and health history interact across body systems, so they can see what is happening for each client and know where to begin.
No science background is required. The science is taught from the ground up, in plain language, and students practise it on client cases from the first course.
The NutraPhoria Integrative Health Institute is a Canadian online school for holistic nutrition, health coaching and integrative health. Students join from Canada, the U.S. and more than 30 countries, and graduate able to ask better questions, organize complex health information and build individualized food and lifestyle recommendations within their scope of practice.
