What Is Oligotherapy?
Oligotherapy (Trace Element Therapy) is a powerful yet gentle therapeutic approach that uses ionised and dynamised trace elements to activate physiological functions and restore balance at a cellular level.
Used across Europe for over a century by naturopaths and doctors, this system goes beyond traditional mineral supplementation. It uses only those elements scientifically proven to be functional in the body, in their purest, most bioavailable form—free from fillers, unnecessary binders or megadoses.
Why Practitioners Love It:
A cleaner alternative to conventional supplements – easier for the body to absorb and free of additives
Practitioner-only access to formulas–your clients will need to come to you to access them, building trust and your business.
Stronger clinical outcomes – improve your results with complex or sensitive clients using evidence-based protocols
Work without relying on testing – you’ll learn to determine client needs through constitutional profiling and case taking
Micro-doses, macro impact – Oligotherapy uses trace amounts that are often impossible to achieve through regular supplementation and can be used alongside pharmaceutical medications
What You’ll Learn
Through this two-part in-person training, you’ll gain everything you need to begin using Oligotherapy in practice immediately and safely, including:
Understanding the therapeutic role of key trace elements like Zinc, Copper, Manganese, Lithium, and Selenium
How to identify your clients’ constitutional “terrain” or diathesis and match it to the correct complex
How to select formulas without relying on functional tests
How to build synergistic protocols for lasting, gentle results in even chronic or complex cases
