Nathuropatic UNI 11491

Context

Naturopathy is a discipline that deals with the treatment and promotion of the state of well-being of the person. The task of the professional Naturopath resides in fact in favoring the individual conditions for the unfolding of the processes of rebalancing the “mind-body” system and stimulating self-healing in it.

Therefore, naturopathy can be generally identified as the general practice of natural health care; it seeks out, identifies and treats the fundamental cause of discomfort, treats the whole person using an individualized approach and teaches the principles of a healthy lifestyle and primary prevention. Naturopathy is part of the set of welfare systems and disciplines, exercised by non-medical practitioners.

The UNI 11491: 2013 standard – Pofessional figure of the Naturopath

To outline the characteristics of the Naturopath, the UNI – Italian Organization for Standardization in 2013 issued, in consultation with the leading experts in the field, the UNI 11491 standard – Professional Figure of the Naturopath, which regulates the skills, knowledge and competence that the Naturopaths should have to exercise their profession.

The profile of the professional Naturopath, as outlined by the standard UNI 11491, is a key figure to contribute to improving the quality of life of people in its entirety, investigates and acts directly on the causes that compromise the natural balance of the individual.
