Seattle, Washington (PRWEB) May 19, 2008 -- Natural Healers (www.NaturalHealers.com), the Internet’s top destination for natural health degrees and career information, has announced its most popular and most requested programs in 2007 and 2008. Not surprisingly, these fields of interest are consistent with the growing number of people turning to alternative treatments to stay healthy, especially as complementary and alternative medicine is being used more frequently alongside conventional medicine.

The top five programs that were most frequently requested on Natural Healers in 2007 and January through April of 2008 are:
1. Massage Therapy
2. Personal Training
3. Chiropractic Medicine
4. Acupuncture
5. Nutrition (http://www.naturalhealers.com/qa/nutrition.shtm)
6. In its third straight year, massage therapy has maintained its most popular status due to the combination of growing job opportunities and the benefits of the job, including a flexible work schedule, a chance to be your own boss and an attractive salary. According to Forbes Magazine, “About nine million more people talked about massage therapy with a health-care provider than they did five years ago, and more insurance companies are starting to step up as medical research continues confirming the health benefits of massage.” With massage therapy being accepted by more insurance companies, the massage therapy job market is expected to see 20 percent growth through 2016, as cited by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Other top requested fields such as personal training, chiropractic medicine and acupuncture represent the burgeoning career interest in today’s holistic health and wellness market.

As the top Web resource, Natural Healers provides users with in-depth information about careers and studies in over 80 areas of natural and alternative health. Students can get the facts on any specialty study by reading interviews with holistic health students, licensed therapists, and natural health teachers in the Holistic Health Career Center (http://www.naturalhealers.com/questions.htm).

“Natural Healers is committed to offering the most complete career information in natural health to our users. Ultimately we want to help as many students as possible connect with the best schools that meet their career goals and busy lifestyles,” says Product Manager Herman Chiang.
