I am interested in alternative and herbal remedies. What kinds of careers would be good for me?

I am deeply interested in herbal remedies and alternative medicine. Is there any kind of job market for this to consider pursuing an education towards it?
It’s not a scam Charles. Quit being brainwashed and go take your RX’s

It really depends on your preferences (good at science, good at writing, good at math, good with business, etc).

Yes, there is some demand for people skilled in natural therapies. Actually, it is one of the fastest growing fields of business as people seek other alternatives to "Traditional" medicine

1 – Massage and Bodywork – Including Aromatherapy, Reiki, Craniosacral Therapy, Reflexology, Rolfing, Polarity Therapy, Massage
2 – Osteopathic Medicine
3 – Chiropractic Medicine
4 – Naturopathic Medicine
5 – Ayurvedic Medicine
6 – Allopathic (Western/Traditional) Medicine with a focus and intent on encouraging a change towards natural alternatives – If you can’t beat em’, Join em’. Then BEAT THEM!
7 – Nutritionist
8 – Psychotherapy
9 – Therapeutic Hypnotist
10 – Nursing (again with the focus and intent on natural medicine)

Again, all of these ideas seem to be on the upswing. People are looking for other approaches.

Of course, there is also nothing wrong with being in business and supporting these people, or being a business consultant to people trying to run natural businesses.

Talk to people in the field. I love talking with like-minded and interested people about what I do and helping them find their path.

Good luck.
