About the subject
What is herbalism?
Herbalism is humanity's oldest medicine — the knowledge of which plants support the body, how to prepare them, and how to use them safely. It's enjoying a serious revival, from home apothecaries to professional botanical product lines.
These certifications take you from foundational materia medica through wildcrafting and formulation to modern specialisms like medicinal mushrooms and CBD — with safety, dosage awareness and respect for both tradition and evidence throughout.
By the end of this path you can
- Know the key medicinal herbs and their actions
- Prepare tinctures, teas, balms and botanical products
- Forage and identify plants safely and sustainably
- Understand safety, interactions and when to refer
01 Which course should I start with?
The Herbalism Certification Course is the foundation — most students start there. Makers can jump into Herbal Product Making; foragers into the Foraging Practitioner course.
02 Can I sell products after certifying?
The product-making courses teach formulation and good practice. Selling herbal products is regulated differently in each country, so check your local requirements — the courses help you understand what to look for.
03 Is this medical training?
No — herbalism here is taught as complementary wellbeing practice. You'll learn safe use, contraindications and when a client's issue belongs with a doctor.
04 Are the certifications accredited?
Yes — Naturalistico courses are accredited by internationally recognised bodies including IPHM, CMA, CPD Excellence, NCCAP and ICAHP.
05 Are the courses self-paced?
Fully. Everything is online with lifetime access — study on your schedule, from anywhere.
