Human: Is there a difference between an herbalist and a naturopath? Assistant: 
Yes, there is a difference. An herbalist specializes in the use of herbs to treat illnesses, while a naturopath focuses on natural remedies for health problems. An herbalist may also be called a phyto-therapist or a botanical physician. A naturopath may have additional training in nutrition, homeopathy, acupuncture, and other alternative therapies.
