International Annual Conference of the Medical Section at the Goetheanum

Right up to the last days of his life, Rudolf Steiner worked with Ita Wegman on the completion of the book Extending Practical Medi- cine. Therapeutic working groups around the world study this book with great intensity. With ground-breaking new perspectives on medicine and in particular the descriptions of the human life organisation, the etheric body, the contents give us a new foundation for a system

of medicine of the future that wishes to support healing powers in such a way that they can also become forces of the future for people and their development. No other modern medical system describes the forces and effects in our organ- ism in such a differentiated way. This year’s annual conference is dedicated to a deeper understanding and further development of this medical system.
