Anthroposophic medicine
Anthroposophic medicine (or anthroposophical medicine) is a form of alternative medicine.〔 Devised in the 1920s by Rudolf Steiner (1861–1925) in conjunction with Ita Wegman (1876–1943), anthroposophical medicine is based on occult notions and draws on Steiner's spiritual philosophy, which he called anthroposophy. Practitioners employ a variety of treatment techniques based upon anthroposophic precepts, including massage, exercise, counselling, and substances.〔
Many drug preparations used in anthroposophic medicine are ultra-diluted substances, similar to those used in homeopathy. Homeopathic remedies themselves are generally considered harmless, except when used as a substitute for a scientifically proven and effective cure.〔 In Europe, people with cancer are sometimes prescribed remedies made from specially-harvested mistletoe by anthroposophic physicians and others, but research has found no evidence of clinical benefit.〔〔 Some anthroposophic doctors oppose childhood vaccination, and this has led to preventable outbreaks of disease.〔 Professor of complementary medicine Edzard Ernst and other critics have characterized anthroposophic medicine as having no basis in science,〔 pseudoscientific,〔 and quackery.〔
Anthroposophic medicine departs from fundamental biological principles in several respects. For example, it claims that the heart does not pump blood but that blood propels itself along.〔 Anthroposophic medicine also proposes that a patient's past lives may influence their illness〔 and that the course of an illness is subject to karmic destiny.〔
