General FAQ
To become a Certified Detoxification Specialist, you must successfully complete and pass Dr. Morse's online 'Level One: The Path of the Healer' self-study course through the International School of the Healing Arts.
Here's the outline for the Level One course: https://courses.internationalschoolofthehealingarts.com/level-one-outline/
Level One is the recommended place to start for beginners and will equip you with knowledge and understanding of what causes health problems, how to relate those problems to the corresponding body systems, and how to begin supporting the body in detoxifying, regenerating, and healing itself.
It breaks down Dr. Morse's approach to detoxification and regeneration wherein you will learn:
1) what things (foods, chemicals, pollutants, negative mindset and emotions, etc.) are disruptive to good health;
2) how to detoxify the body by supporting your lymphatic system and restoring your main elimination channels (kidneys, bowels and skin) to more optimal functioning;
3) how to use diet, herbs, fasting and other tools to enhance and regenerate organs, glands, and other body systems; and
4) original or what Dr. Morse refers to as True Naturopathy, emphasizing a holistic, natural, and species-specific approach that moves away from the symptom treatment and excessive use of supplements we can observe in health care today.
Dr. Morse's courses are mostly geared towards teaching you how to create effective and individually tailored detoxification protocols, but the knowledge you'll gain can be applied across many alternative health modalities and specialties.
Level One Detoxification Specialist Certification is enough to start practicing and working with clients.
Level Two is strongly recommended if you want to go deeper in helping people with advanced and complex health conditions.
The 'Creating Your Own Business the Healthy Way' course is ideal if you need guidance and ideas from Dr. Morse on starting your business practice.
All our courses offer certification upon successful completion, however they're not “accredited” (nor will they likely ever be).
When you submit to a licensing board, or an accrediting board, you essentially turn over your power and agree to receive their “stamp of approval” (or you must alter your work to meet their criteria).
Dr. Morse has never been interested in submitting his work to an accrediting board anywhere, as his work is pure truth derived from over 50 years of actual clinical experience.He will not compromise on that to meet the approval of someone else’s ideas or perceptions.
Even with naturopathic schools, there is a tendency towards mainstream thinking; treating diseases, treating symptomatically and using chemical isolates.
Dr. Morse does not agree with this, and chooses to keep his work pure rather than diluting it to suit the views of a board or committee (which very often contains members with little or no actual clinical experience!).
There is no time limit, you can take as long as you need.
However, we recommend you make time to study regularly and do so following a plan.
You simply need a device capable of browsing the internet and streaming media content.
You will need speakers or headphones/earpiece as well.
For the exam sections, we recommend using a PC to fill out the relevant forms.
Although Dr. Morse doesn't withhold any information from his YouTube videos, Level One is specifically designed in a systematic manner in order to maximize your learning of Regenerative Detoxification.
There's a time-saving aspect from everything being organized in the right order, and also the certification and legal aspects if you want to become a practitioner.

Level One: The Path of the Healer
Upon successful completion of Level One, you will receive your certification as a Detoxification Specialist.
This is all that you need to become a practitioner (there is no licensure required anywhere to practice as a Detoxification Specialist).
Completing the course via live class or DVD series unfortunately doesn't grant access to the online version of the course. The online school is constantly evolving with updated videos from time-to-time plus supplementary material that Dr. Morse has never done before.
This means we cannot give you direct access since, in effect, it's a different product.
Existing Level One students can get access to the online Level One course at a significantly reduced price via the Alumni Refresher version: https://courses.internationalschoolofthehealingarts.com/level-one-alumni-refresher-course/
NOTE: The Level One DVD course has been discontinued.
The online courses, as well as being current, have been professionally filmed like never before. As much as possible, they also give you the experience of attending a live class.
An added advantage of the online courses, is that Dr. Morse is continually adding new content. He films and records supplementary material as he deems fit.
Once you’ve enrolled in a course, you’ll always retain access and enjoy all future additions to that course at no extra cost.
As things change over time, like for instance the name of some herbal formulas, the online courses will be updated to reflect the new changes.
Live Classes in Florida
At this time Dr. Morse has decided to focus on developing the International School of Healing Arts online platform.
As such, we will no longer be hosting live intensives, all classes are offered as self-paced online study.
Lymphatic Iridology
There are no prerequisites for enrolling in the Lymphatic Iridology online course. You can enroll at any time.
However, the Level One Intensive course does provide the foundational teachings which the Lymphatic Iridology course builds on.
You will still derive great value and practical skills from the course even if it's your first course via our school.
Professors
If you've got the experience and expertise to create and record a course that aligns with our school and Dr. Morse's teachings, we're interested in hearing from you.
Currently, we're looking for ISHA Professors who can create, teach, and record course curricula on the following subjects:
- Botany
- Chiropratics and kinesiology
- Essential oils
- Fitness, health and spirituality
- Flower essences
- Holistic veterinary
- Holistic midwifery
- Homeopathy
- Herbology
- Law and legal course for holistic health practitioners

We're always open to new ideas and suggestions on courses to offer via our school. So if you want to propose something not listed above, please do contact us.
Students
The courses have been designed to be all inclusive and concepts are often repeated from different perspectives.
We recommend you watch the entire course you're taking, including any supplementary material. If you still have a question, feel free to contact us via the student form inside the course.
You have paid for the course(s) and will always have access while the International School of the Healing Arts exists!
We want our students to have all the knowledge they need to pass their exams.
For this reason, if you fail, we strongly encourage you to revisit the course material and find out why you got certain answers incorrect.
Once you're ready, you may re-attempt the exam. Repeat this process as many times as you need in order to cross the 80% minimum passing grade.
Challenge yourself and try to get a 90%+ passing grade.
Certificates are issued digitally after your exam results have been verified.
If you would like a printed copy, please contact us about this.
The cost for this is $50 per physical certificate.
We aim to send printed certificates as soon as possible but do allow 8 weeks for printing, processing and mail, especially if you are outside the U.S.
