Since 2014 the WHO has worked towards integrating traditional, complementary and integrative medical approaches worldwide into healthcare systems. After Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine, the organization now also published training standards for Anthroposophic Medicine that will have global validity.
Scientific studies are available on the efficacy of Anthroposophic Medicine, for example on mistletoe therapy for cancer.
Anthroposophy can add perspectives to the findings of the academic sciences, based on an epistemological foundation, artistic approaches, practical application and ethical considerations. Members of the Goetheanum Leadership present examples of this in a video series.
The film maker Benedikt Schulte presents Anthroposophic Medicine in a series of short films entitled ‘The Art of Healing’. The films provide an insight into the medical practice, inviting experts, researchers, students and patients to share their experiences and casting a light on the history of Anthroposophic Medicine.
Healing and illness are connected with the human soul. Psychological stress, stress, depression and anxiety have proven to have a damaging effect on health. On the other hand, the healing effect of the soul is well known.
The Medical Section at the Goetheanum and the International Federation of An-throposophic Medical Associations have stated that Anthroposophic Medicine is not anti-vaccine and does not support anti-vaccine movements. Rather, it advocates an objective and differentiated view on vaccinations.
