 Greetings:
Welcome to Northwestern Health Sciences University. Whether
you choose to explore just a few or all of the thousands of
pages on our website, you will soon discover a common thread
— the pioneering spirit and international reputation
of our University.
For 65 years, Northwestern has been an international leader
in natural health care education, patient care and scientific
research. Established in 1941 as Northwestern College of Chiropractic,
our University includes programs in chiropractic, acupuncture,
Oriental medicine, massage therapy, human biology, and integrative
health and wellness. Northwestern now has more students than
all other natural health care educational institutions combined
in Minnesota.
With nearly 1,000 students on our beautiful 23-acre campus
in Bloomington, Minnesota, we are positioned to provide our
students with the learning resources they need to successfully
prepare for the natural health care field they have chosen.
We have pioneered many of the clinical training programs
used in natural health care education — including groundbreaking
integrative care models — and provide more natural
health care services than any other organization in Minnesota.
For more than a decade, Northwestern has been a national
leader in health care research focusing on natural approaches
to wellness, with more than $9 million in federal funding
since 1999.
Although our institution's history is rich in "firsts"
in natural health care education, it is the people of Northwestern
who are our most valuable asset. Our University is known for
its "Community of Caring" because our faculty, staff,
students and alumni form a unique family that is bound by
a collective mission — to passionately promote and provide
the very best natural health care services around the world.
I invite you to navigate through our website and discover
for yourself the threads that we have woven together to form
the "Community of Caring" that is Northwestern Health
Sciences University. It is unique in higher education.
Warmest regards,
Mark Zeigler, DC
President, Northwestern Health Sciences University
