Centre for Integrative, Complementary Medicine & TCM (ZIMT)

In anthroposophic nursing, various external applications are used in the care of our patients. These include wraps, compresses, rhythmic embrocations according to Wegman / Hauschka and partial baths. They have been part of the repertoire of remedies in various cultures for centuries and are not only a central component of anthroposophic care, but also of Kneipp therapies. Experience a comprehensive care experience based on proven methods.

The anthroposophical understanding of nature and man enables us to utilise the healing powers of minerals or plants as specifically as possible. This results in the so-called "external applications" in anthroposophic care.
