 ET 10/97: Anthroposophic medicine: letting your body work for you
Anthroposophic medicine is an extension of conventional Western medicine developed in the 1920s by Dr. Rudolf Steiner, an Austrian scientist, educator, artist and philosopher, in conjunction with European physicians (Steiner also founded Waldorf education).
In anthroposophic medicine, health results not from the absence of illness, as in conventional medicine, but from a good balance between the head (which has a cooling, contracting, forming energy) and the body's lower region, which includes most of the internal organs and has a warming, expanding, dissolving energy.
In European countries there are thousands of such practitioners, plus several hospitals in Germany and Switzerland devoted exclusively to anthroposophic medicine.

 What is Anthroposophic Medicine? And Why is Suzanne Sommers Promoting it on "Larry King Live?"
But in anthroposophical medicine, if the body is ultimately wise, then cholesterol is viewed as a waxy band-aid issued forth by the liver in response to arterial injury for a failing pump.
If anthroposophical medicine — with its unconventional bent and reliance on inner wisdom manages to match a plant with a cancer cure, then we should offer it a place at the table of healing arts and sciences, and reconfirm the original mission of the 40-year-old “war” on cancer.
Anthroposophic medicine had finally showed up with the proper documents, a prerequisite for gaining recognition or respect within the larger medical community.

 Waldorf Critics Archive 0207 (July, 2002)
Anthroposophical Medicine is an extension of regular, academically based medicine which integrates allopathic medicine and considered by some members of our faculty to be Anthroposophical world conceptions.[sic] Anthroposophy is a way of conducting research and enhancing one's abilities to penetrate the phenomenon of nature and the human being.
Anthroposophical Medicine, based on lectures Steiner gave to doctors among his devotees, depends on a world-view that, despite public claims to the contrary, is explicitly hostile to modern science.
Anthroposophic medicines are officially acknowledged as medicines in the whole of Europe, although the cult itself is not known in all of the 15 countries.

A detailed insight into these laws and principles forms the basis of anthroposophic medicine.
The essence of the anthroposophic approach is that it consistently applies the threefoldness of the human being in body, soul and spirit.

 OTA Report:Herbal Treatments
Although Iscador treatment is given along with other interventions in Anthroposophic medicine, proponents claim that Iscador itself has anticancer properties: it is believed to increase the length and quality of life, stabilize disease, cause regression of tumors, and improve the general condition of the patient (534).
At present, mistletoe is given to patients either as the central component of a complex, broader treatment regimen in the practice of Anthroposophic medicine mainly in Europe (277) or as a single agent partially or completely removed from the overall context of Anthroposophic care (e.g., in the United Kingdom and other countries).
Anthroposophic literature refers to his reportedly extraordinary mental capabilities ("higher faculties of perception," extrasensory perception, or inner knowledge) as the key element underlying his novel proposal to use mistletoe therapeutically in cancer (277).

 Anthroposophic Medicine (AM)
Anthroposophic medicine is represented in many countries all over the world through the national anthroposophic doctors’ associations, which are represented by the International Federation of Anthroposophical Medical Associations (IVAA).
Anthroposophic medicine was founded in the early 1920’s by the medical doctor Ita Wegman (1876-1943) and her colleagues in close collaboration with Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925).
As anthroposophic medicine is practised only by qualified medical doctors, the ordinary medical training at University medical schools is the pre-condition for extending the basic medical knowledge by training in anthroposophic medicine.

 Anthroposophic Medicine - The Logical Way to Approach Essential Oils in a Spiritual Fashion
Anthroposophic medicine is an esoteric explanation of how the four bodies interplay with the three-fold functional processes.
Steiner breaks Anthroposophy into a four-fold process of earth, water, air, and fire, which all relate to a different aspect of the makeup of human beings: earth represents the physical body; water, the etheric; air, the astral; and fire the ego, (or spiritual body).
So when laws are passed that control and limit our use of vitamins, minerals and herbs, we simply have to state our knowledge in esoteric and Anthroposophic terminology so that we are free to teach the spiritual wisdom of essential oils.

 UMIM: Anthroposophic Medicine Consultation
As such, anthroposophic medicine integrates theories and practices of modern medicine with alternative, nature-based treatments and a spiritual-scientific understanding of the human being.
Whereas conventional medicine focuses on "fixing" the part of the physical body that is "broken," anthroposophic medicine prescribes treatment for the whole being through conventional methods in combination with holistic methods.
Man is intrinsically connected to nature's mineral, plant and animal kingdoms through physical and spiritual forces and anthroposophic medicine must therefore consider natural elements during times of treatment.

My answer is no. I believe that RSC is illegally procuring public school funds because they are a sectarian insitution and the Waldorf pedagogy is designed specifically to enhance the spiritual evolution/growth of children's souls per Anthroposophical religious belief.
