Missy Miss asked:
i want to pursue a career in alternative medicine such as the use of herbs and oils but i do not know what kind of post high school education is needed. What type of major do you have to have in college to pursue a career in alternative medicine, or what kind of education is needed.

I rather suspect that since it’s not real medicine, you can hang your shingle out without any education.
But, if you want to work in a pharmacy, you’ll need the education and licensing to become either a pharmacist or a pharmacy technician.
Great choice!
I know several health professionals (both traditional and alternative) that are part of PreventionProof.com You might want to ask them. I’m sure there’s a contact or e-mail address on their site. Good luck.

There are a lot of paths open to you depending on where you want to go. i studied Diploma courses and then had them recognized into a bachelor’s Degree. If it is herbs and so on you wish to work with then I’d suggest you contact your governing association (American herbalist Association etc) and see what their minimum requirement is and who they recommend to train with.
This may not be recognized as “real medicine” yet it is one of the most widely used and ancient forms of healing known to humankind! oneday it will be seen in proper context so be well informed and taught is my advice.
best of luck in your career, and welcome to the club!
