Gateways College is dedicated to furthering the acceptance of the practice of the Certified Naturopathic Practitioner. Because of the innate gifts that are involved in this type of healing it is essential that the educational requirements be that of a vocational school rather than a degree program in a university.
Gateways Health, College of Naturopathy & Natural Therapies was founded by Angela Burr-Madsen, a Board Certified Naturopath, a registered Holistic Health Practitioner (HHP) and a Specialized Kinesiologist (SK). The college is designed and structured to train the student in both the art and science of Naturopathy and Natural Therapeutics.
