Anthroposophic Medicines
Weleda was founded in Switzerland to supply medicines to doctors who wished to put into practice the anthroposophic theories and naturopathic approach of Rudolf Steiner and his pioneering colleague Dr Ita Wegman. Anthroposophy extends conventional thinking, taking into account the spiritual nature of the world. It has many practical applications in society today: biodynamic agriculture, ethical banking, Steiner education, and anthroposophic medicine.
A large number of Weleda medicines are anthroposophic. Conventional medicine primarily addresses the physical aspects of illness, destroying disease or suppressing symptoms. Anthroposophic medicine tackles illness slightly differently. Approaching ill health holistically, the focus of anthroposophic medicine is to stimulate our own natural ability to heal, restoring the balance of bodily functions and strengthening our immune system or life force. It complements conventional medicine and the two are often used side by side.
Doctors have to be fully qualified before further training to be an anthroposophic doctor.
