Anthroposophic Medicine

Anthroposophic medicine is an integrative medical system that extends conventional practice with a deeper understanding of the human being as a fourfold organism of physical body, etheric life forces, soul, and spirit. Originating in the work of Rudolf Steiner and Dr. Ita Wegman, this approach was first systematized in their 1925 text Extending Practical Medicine and has since grown into a worldwide practice recognized by the Swiss government since 1999.

This collection of approximately 200 titles includes foundational works such as Victor Bott’s Anthroposophical Medicine, Michaela Glöckler’s clinical guides, and studies by Walther Bühler, Armin Husemann, and Ralph Marinelli on the heart, circulation, and organ systems. Titles on mistletoe therapy in oncology, the threefold human organism, and the relationship between illness and biography are well represented. Subcategories for Clinical Medicine & Therapies and Medicinal Plants & Remedies provide focused pathways.

Whether you are a medical professional, a student of integrative health, or a patient seeking to understand your treatment, these titles form the deepest English-language library on anthroposophic medicine.
