The National Institute of Whole Health formally DBA
New England School of Whole Health Education Registered Trademarks, Trademarks, Service Marks and Copyrights

Since 1977, the National Institute of Whole Health, then known as the New England School of Whole Health Education, has worked and continues to work diligently and passionately to establish Whole Health Education®, the Whole Health Educator™ and Whole Person Health™ as a viable presence in the health care field. In these efforts, the school has created numerous service marks, copyrights and proprietary materials. This intellectual property and its proper and legal use are critical to: 1) establishing our program as a distinctly and uniquely identifiable service; 2) maintaining the integrity of our program; and 3) enabling the services of a certified Whole Health Educator™ to be reimbursable through third party insurers.

The school vigorously monitors the use of its proprietary materials, copyrights and service marks to ensure it conforms to the guidelines and to protect the school’s rights. In addition, NIWH owns hundreds of domain names related to Whole Health and its applicable phrasing. If you have any questions regarding the schools proprietary materials, please contact NIWH at 888-354-HEAL (4325).
