Academy of Natural Health Sciences

My experience at the Academy of Natural Sciences was very enriching . I not only attended a learning institute but a career long advisement facility. Once a graduate, Dr. Frank ensures that his students follow the best steps possible into not only following their dream career, but providing the best care possible for their future clients. Dr. Frank is highly knowledgeable in multiple fields, thereby giving a very wide perspective of what the natural health sciences are all about. Dr. Frank's method of teaching is great; he has been in the industry for many years. He is generous in answering any and all questions with depth and clarity, at any time. Dr. Frank can be easily contact by phone, mail, before and after class. The areas of study are complete, tests and papers are given regularly. The student is therefore, force to keep up with and understanding the material. The Holistic Nutrition course was a very intensive, full on point, up-to-date and valuable information that is sure to prepare the student to the maximum of his/her abilities. The small classes and flexibility, make it a great choice. The institute location is an excellent one. I personally took public transportation to attend all my classes and had no problem with it. The train and bus station are only blocks away from the institution making it a great choice for anyone that commutes. I will highly recommend this school - affordable tuition fee, quality of education, good location, small classes, supportive and knowledgeable instructor.

From the moment I walked in the door to inquire about a career in massage to the day I graduated I was thrilled by my decision to attend the Academy of Natural Health Sciences. I not only attended a learning institute but a career long advisement facility. I have found that no matter when I call inquiring about business advisement, skill enhancement, or trends in the massage world I am always furnished with information.



The school continues to offer courses that are interesting as well as needed to continue my education and allow me to be a more well rounded massage therapist. The most important part of the school for me was the size. I really felt that after attending college with my degree and touring many different massage schools that the individualized small classes would allow me the constant attention of the instructor that I would need to really excel in my massage field. I had my own experience with college and that is fine for book work but with hands on careers you really need to get the personal attention that this school offers. I also appreciated the way Dr. Frank Auriemma would challenge each student to push them to a higher level of thought which gave us again a more personalized education experience.

I researched many different programs before committing to The Academy of Natural Health Science's Clinical Nutrition and Holistic Health Classroom Program, and I am very happy with my choice. Dr. Frank lectures on a wide array of nutrition topics including detox, sports nutrition, herbs, and weight-loss systems, to name a few. What I like the most about his teaching methods is that he lectures on proven information that will work and can be practically applied to all sorts of people with all different health concerns. He does not get caught up in the hype that surrounds the nutrition and supplement industry, yet he is up-to-date on all of the current practices and new nutritional news. In addition, this program allows one to work full-time while attending school and is also very affordable. I am thankful for the education I've received, and I'm confident that Dr. Frank will continue to be helpful and accessible once I have graduated.

I am a current Nutrition student and I'm really enjoying the program at The Academy of Natural Health Sciences. Before attending the program I took the opportunity to meet with Dr. Frank and look through the curriculum binders.I knew what this program had to offer before I committed to attending. I suggest you do the same thing. Here is a little bit about my experience. I appreciate the fact that we have looked at therapeutic topics like heart health, Diabetes ,weight loss ,digestive wellness and cancer and etc. The Academy is a great school and very clean and a well kept place. Dr. Frank is a wonderful teacher. He is very helpful, and prompt in returning emails. I enjoyed his lectures. He's knowledgeable and explains things well. I hope that this information is helpful. I highly recommend this class!

Being a part of Massage Therapy and Bodywork program at ANHS was a truly great experience. I enjoyed learning massage therapy techniques in the school’s pleasant and friendly atmosphere. Dr Frank is a great coach, very knowledgeable and extremely experienced teacher. His lectures were very interesting and easy to understand. The program provides theoretical knowledge, practical skills and ethics essential to become a professional in this field. I would definitely recommend ANHS to anyone who would like to pursue a career in massage therapy.

I am currently enrolled at the Academy of Natural Science finishing up with the Nutrition and Alternative Medicine course. I have to say it was convenient with my busy schedule and economic situation. As an educator of Health & Physical Education and Head Coach of Track & Field I found the course to be very overwhelming, but very fulfilling as well. Dr. Frank is amazing, he provided us with tools to be successful now and later. His open door policy is very helpful. The challenge made me a better teacher and coach. I am so excited and confident about my next adventure as a nutritionist. If you are eager to be challenge then this investment of knowledge, to help yourself and others, is the course for you. I do warn that you leave your cell phone home or just turn it off. Success with the course starts there. Thanks Dr. Frank

I am very pleased with the experience I had at this school. I have just completed the eight month Massage and Bodywork course. Dr. Frank made himself accessible to his students, which made things much easier and not too difficult. Attending Academy of Natural Health Sciences has been the best decision I have ever made for myself and my career. I have learned all necessary techniques to find a job as massage therapist or open my own business. I am very lucky that I found this school. Thank You Dr. Frank.

I was going to a conventional nutrition program and felt I was not getting enough information to help me further my career as a nutritionist. I researched for other programs and found the Academy of Natural Health Sciences. I am so grateful that I found this school. It is extremely affordable,especially for the amount of knowledge you walk away with. Dr. Frank weeds out all the confusing and overwhelming information on the internet and gives his students only the most useful information. He is willing to lend his support during and after the program. Any time I had questions outside of class he responded within the same day. Plus, Dr. Frank provides his students with multiple packets of take-home information that you will continually refer to throughout your career in nutrition.

I have been working as a personal trainer for about four years, and working in this field made me realize how important a nutrition background is in helping my clients reach their goals. Working out in the gym should be a part of everyone's program, but true health and success starts with a proper diet and supplement program.

I knew I wanted to go back to school and get a degree or certification in nutrition. However, I didn't want to do some overnight certification program that anyone could take and pass without gaining any real knowledge. But after looking into going back to school for dietetics, I quickly decided that was not the route for me.

I happened up the ANHS, and contacted one of the former students who lived nearby me. We met for coffee, and she convinced me that this was the best bet for my nutrition education. I am happy with the knowledge and material I have taken away from the class, and I would recommend Dr. Frank's nutrition program to anyone who is looking for a thorough course covering the real life material you will need to help your nutrition clients. I have a ton of reference material from my text books, as well as books that I purchased based on Dr. Frank's recommendations. Additionally, you are given all the forms that you will need in your practice.

If you are looking to continue your education or switch fields, I recommend the ANHS.

I researched clinical nutrition schools for 3 months and found only 3 that were considered reputable in the industry. I made my decision to attend Dr. Frank's Academy of Natural Sciences and I am thankful for the education that I received. Other schools seemed way too commercial and to be focused more on generating revenue than the student's journey into a nutrition career. Dr. Frank's Academy of Natural Sciences really gives you a bang for your buck! The tuition is super affordable and you make your payments in installments making it even more affordable.



More importantly, Dr. Frank has over 30 years of experience in the field as a practitioner, educator, and researcher. He is passionate about what he does and holds an array of certifications and degrees in other fields, such as massage and personal training. THIS IS SO SIGNIFICANT to one's education since he brings ALL of this into the classroom. Further, no other program I researched required a thesis/research project at the end of the program in order to receive your certification. This is an authentic education that prepares you to become a certified clinical nutritionist and holistic health practitioner as soon as you leave the school. The texts and material are put together for constant reference and are constructed to support you in your career. A major plus is that Dr. Frank allows you to contact him for assistance and reference while practicing in the field. His doors are always open! This speaks to the person he is and shows that he really cares about his students, their progression into the field, and human health.

Academy of Natural Health Sciences

I have recently finished my class time with Dr. Frank at the Academy of Natural Health Sciences, studying Clinical Nutrition. I am currently finishing my final project in order to receive my certification. I had researched many Nutrition Courses before I began this program at The Academy, and what drew me in to the course were the subjects covered as well as the opportunity to do a final project of my own choosing. But what ultimately convinced me to commit was Dr.Frank’s sincerity over the phone and the Academy’s very fair and reasonable prices.



I do not live in New Jersey. I had no other student to speak with regarding the program. All I had to go on was the website and Dr.Frank. I drove three hours both to and from the Academy throughout my training, and I can tell you that it was not easy. I wouldn’t have done that if I didn’t feel this was the best program for me. Dr. Frank made the course challenging, yet not so much that I would feel overwhelmed or discouraged. I’ve learned even more than I thought I would, and I feel the course has given me a very practical template in which to start my own practice as a Clinical Nutritionist.



And finally, what I really appreciate about this program is that Dr. Frank makes himself very available to his graduates regarding professional support and access to professional supplies. I find this to be exceptional and not at all the norm. Where else could you go to become a Nutritionist and have continuing access and support from a Naturopathic Doctor? Very good value and quality, if you ask me.

The Academy of Natural Health and Science school with Dr. Frank, was the best decision and more than rewarding. I was going through war in my mind if I should change my occupation from pre K Teaching to massage therapist, well I couldn't be any more happier that I did!!!! Dr. Frank is an amazing Teacher, he teaches, leads, and guides his students with excellent skills, in my opinion the best. He makes sure all of his students learns and master the skills and techniques of becoming a massage therapist, and offers a unique combination of different types of massages at an unbeatable price, I did my research and its the most affordable. Dr. Frank, has help my dreams come true. I am now a medical massage therapist. He helped me find Externships to enhance and mobilize what he has taught his students. He teaches from his heart and that is hard to find. He makes learning interesting and fun!!!!

A Special Thanks to Dr. Frank, (tears of joy) Thanks Dr. Frank!!!!!

I am incredibly grateful to have found Dr. Frank and his program at the Academy of Natural Health Sciences. The name says it all. Dr. Frank bases everything he teaches on what has been proven by science. I loved that I had the option to attend class in person. The schedule is very convenient, even for a working mom like myself. The work is intense but if you want to be the best in your field, that's what is necessary. Dr. Frank will be there to support his students every step of the way.

Thank you Dr. Frank for providing me with to tools I need for my amazing new career!

I live for pet nutrition and have been searching for an institution that would provide training and professional certification in this field outside of actual vet schools which accept funding from the major pet food companies and therefore in my opinion to not offer unbiased views. I came across Academy of Natural Health Sciences and thought their course in pet nutrition looked perfect, but their website looked incredibly suspicious and unprofessional, so I used the online contact form to contact them. I noted that I thought the course looked interesting and engaging, but that I was concerned over the website and wanted to ensure that if I received this certification that it would be considered credible and something I could direct customers or vet's to if I provided advice based on this certification. Here is the response I received:



- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Yes, Molly.



We are a valid institution that is both credible and professional.

Our reputation is impeccable.



If you took the time to read what is on our

"juvenile" looking web site, you would have found proof.



Constructive criticism about our programs is

always welcome as we currently provide the best

training out there and we want to continue to do so.



However, to endure criticism about the look of

our web site, and to listen to a know nothing,

neophyte wannabe like yourself ramble about such frivolities

is beyond the pale.



Sorry our site isn't up to the professional aesthetics

a "store owner like yourself" is used to.



Please find yourself a school that has a more grown up

"look" that will give you one tenth the training we would have,

from people who are surely not the experts we are.



Good luck with that.



Dr. Frank Auriemma

Director

Wow. For those of you who saw the recent episode of Kitchen Nightmare's, this response does pale in comparison to Amy's response, but I still wonder if this kind of name calling is appropriate from a professional institution. Literally all I said is that I felt the website looked juvenile and asked if they had some additional information or referrals that could build my confidence. $1400 might not be a lot of money to some people, but it is to me and I needed to ensure it was well spent. Obviously, I will be ensuring it is well spent elsewhere.

I have researched massage schools and pricing, this school Academy of Natural Health Sciences falls into a very affordable alternative to same of of higher priced school. I would higly recommend this school for anyone that chooses to take classes in this field of study. I am very happy about all the knowledge and practice that I learned from Dr. Frank. The class sizes were small enough, that you are able to receive individual attention. Any time you have a question, you know it will be answered quickly. Dr. Frank is awesome teacher. He has a lot of passion in his teaching. I am very fortune to have had the рleasure to study under Dr. Frank, I would highly recommend anyone taking this or anyone his classes. AWESOME School. THANK you Dr.Frank.

The Academy of Natural Health Sciences (ANHS) massage therapy program became my first choice, after interviewing with several other (MT) schools. Aside from offering Medical/Reflexology/Shiatsu & Swedish massage modalities, Dr. Frank is a thorough and meticulous instructor who patiently guides each-and-every student through lecture and practicum with confidence and assurance. Dr. Frank is committed to ensuring the professional success of every student. I look forward to attending continuing education (CEU’s) classes. Dr. Frank~Thank you, for providing an invaluable skill-set to my list of professional accomplishments. ~ Rochelle, BSW/CSW/MPA/LMT

The Academy of Natural Health Sciences is a great place to learn to harness your passion for the holistic arts. Dr. Frank is highly knowledgeable in multiple fields, thereby giving a very wide perspective from which the natural health sciences are based. I strongly recommend anyone with an avid interest in these areas to visit this lovely center located just blocks from the train station in historic Woodbridge, NJ. Come and meet Dr. Frank personally in order to observe exactly the sincere essence inherent in the objectives of his courses. I graciously thank Dr. Frank for all of his assistance regarding academics and for simply making the overall experience a genuinely enjoyable one.

I took the nutrition program on the recommendation of a friend who learned massage from Dr. Frank. By the way, my friend is the best massage therapist I've ever experienced in the state of NJ. I appreciated the thoroughness and scientific basis of Dr. Frank's approach. He clearly knows his stuff and keeps up with all the latest research. He is generous in answering any and all questions with depth and clarity. The areas of study are complete and tests and papers given regularly force you to keep up with and understand the material. The small class size keeps it personal and engaging. And after completing the program you don't feel abandoned, Dr. Frank is there to support you as needed. Thank you Dr. Frank.

I am very pleased with The Academy's Massage & Bodywork Therapy Program. Dr. Frank is one of the most thorough and compassionate people I've had the pleasure of learning from. The course renewed my Spirit and has given me the key to open the door.

Thanks Dr. Frank!
