History
Emma: “One year after beginning to work with naturopathy, I started a 2 year course then did a further 2 years on an apprenticeship. I then worked until 2006 building my experience in practice. I taught courses in London, Bristol, and Glasgow and went on to start the first College of Naturopathic Nutrition in Dublin.
Eventually I decided to come back home and establish the first college in Wales: in 2006 I opened the School of Naturopathic Health Studies, in Cardiff. We are a fully accredited naturopathic nutrition college - Society of Naturopaths.

Emma Jones Phillips
Emma has been working as a naturopath, teacher and healer for 20 years and runs the school of naturopathic Nutrition. She is a consultant and author, as well as a mother of 3 little girls.
Emma started off her working career in teaching but life started to change when she was diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome and total allergy syndrome.
By chance, she attended a naturopathy session with a leading naturopath, and it was a life changing moment as Emma went on to heal her symptoms within a six month period.
After beginning to use naturopathy for healing herself, she trained in naturopathy for 7 years and gained advanced qualifications. She has taught courses in London, Bristol, and Glasgow and went on to start the first College of Naturopathic Nutrition in Dublin.
Emma established the very first and now leading Naturopathic College in Wales.
As well as training and attending retreats with David Wolfe, Emma has co-run raw food events with Kate Magic. She has also had the opportunity to work with professional rugby players, actors and celebrities.
Emma follows the Bakti yoga tradition and has trained in Vedic science. As well as Chinese medicine.
“I believe that all disease can be overcome if we approach it in the right manner. If we can create dis-ease in our body then we can find our way out of it.”

Emma George
Emma has worked in a consultant in business and wellbeing for over a decade, drawing on her unique background of psychology, human resource management, and naturopathy. Emma’s approach is highly professional and underpinned by integrity, and this has always led to the delivery of successful outcomes for her clients.
Emma’s areas of particular specialism include energy and vitality, resilience and stress management. Following a lifelong interest in health and nutrition, she first began her formal training in naturopathic nutrition in 2013 and qualified as a naturopath in 2016.
Emma has long held a belief and strong personal interest in wellbeing, having turned to vegetarianism at the age of 13. Following the birth of her son in her twenties she experienced a range of health complaints – low energy, hair loss, and low mood, and it was this that motivated her to investigate approaches to better levels of health and wellbeing that could not be found in the doctors office. After working 1-2-1 with a holistic nutritionist to successfully overcome the health complaints Emma passionately embarked on her formal naturopathic training.
As a naturopath who has helped men, women, children and families overcome their health challenges and restore their natural levels of energy and wellbeing, Emma is an advocate of healing the body and mind naturally by understanding the root cause of problems and using food, nature and lifestyle interventions to remedy those.
