Holistic health with the Academy of Naturopathy (AKN)

Tigogreen founder Tanja Hohenester conducted an insightful interview with two experts from the Academy of Naturopathy (AKN): Anna Hartmann and Aylin Moser. Both experts shared their extensive expertise and enthusiasm for holistic health, particularly in relation to gynecology. In this article, we summarize the key findings from the interview.

Holistic approaches to health

Anna Hartmann is a nutritionist and Education Development Manager at the Academy of Naturopathy. With her deep roots in nutritional science and her love of naturopathy, she brings a unique perspective to her work. In the interview, Anna emphasized the importance of a holistic approach to health. In her view, simply "eating healthy" is not enough. Exercise, stress management, and general mental well-being are equally important. This comprehensive approach is central to the philosophy of the AKN. The Academy of Naturopathy has been successful for almost 20 years. The first training program was developed and launched around 25 years ago. Since then, the AKN has specialized in developing and offering online training programs, allowing students flexibility and independence. These online training programs are a particularly valuable option for women seeking a career change after the family phase.

Holistic gynecology and healthcare

Aylin Moser is a naturopathic practitioner and expert in holistic women's health. She completed her training as a nutritionist at the AKN in 2014 and has maintained close ties to the academy ever since. Her passion for gynecology led her back to the AKN in 2022, where she now works as a lecturer. In an interview, Aylin emphasized that women are biologically different from men and therefore must be treated differently in healthcare. Her work aims to widely disseminate this specific knowledge and empower women to take control of their own health. Aylin is also very active on social media, where she shares her insights and tips on women's health. She sees it as her mission to spread holistic knowledge and education to the world, thus building a bridge between conventional medicine and naturopathy.
