What is Anthroposophical Medicine?

Join Dr Simon van Lieshout for this introductory webinar exploring the principles and practice of Anthroposophical Medicine — an integrative approach that combines conventional medical science with insights into the body, soul, and spirit. Drawing on the work of Rudolf Steiner and over a century of clinical application, Dr van Lieshout will discuss how this holistic framework supports the individualised care of patients and the cultivation of healing relationships between practitioner and patient. This session is ideal for anyone curious about the philosophical and practical foundations of Anthroposophical Medicine and its place within integrative healthcare today.
