    The Historical Background of the German Law Regulating Health Practitioners

    The Historical Background of the German Law Regulating Health Practitioners Master Thesis to obtain the Master of Science in Osteopathy at the Donau Universität Krems submitted at the Wiener Schule für Osteopathie by Tillmann Einenkel Munich, December 2007 Tutor: Mag. Katharina Musil Translation by Dale Whinnett 1 Preface Respect and humility in the face of natural systems are not archaic virtues but should constitute an integral part of modern medicine. We need to avoid placing such high value on technical achievements that we fail to acknowledge the opportunities nature offers and its inherent powers of healing. It is important that we accept that human beings are and will remain part of nature. We have no influence over the fact that we are born or that we will die, but we do control one aspect. We are responsible for what we make out of our lives. This alone is sufficient reason to profit from our forefathers’ wealth of experience and to learn from their mistakes. In the course of my research I read numerous historic documents on the subject of medicine and health. Judging from the dates of the documents one might assume that the information they contain is equally antiquated. Far from it! The knowledge they contain is as significant today as it was hundreds of years ago when they were created. Modern medicine should not be viewed from a current scientific perspective alone, but should also take into account neuen alten Heilmethoden (new forms of complementary medicine). The wealth of experience gathered over centuries of empirical natural medicine cannot be replaced by modern scientific medicine.

    The Legacy of Sebastian Kneipp: Linking Wellness, Naturopathic, and Allopathic Medicine

    THE JOURNAL OF ALTERNATIVE AND COMPLEMENTARY MEDICINE Volume 20, Number 7, 2014, pp. 521–526 Paradigms ª Mary Ann Liebert, Inc. DOI: 10.1089/acm.2013.0423 The Legacy of Sebastian Kneipp: Linking Wellness, Naturopathic, and Allopathic Medicine Cornelia Locher, PhD,1 and Christof Pforr, PhD2 Abstract Sebastian Kneipp (1821–1897) is seen as a vital link between the European nature cure movement of the 19th century and American naturopathy. He promoted a holistic treatment concept founded on five pillars: hydro- and phytotherapy, exercise, balanced nutrition, and regulative therapy. Kneipp attempted to bridge the gap with allopathic medicine, and many modern treatments that are based on his methods indeed blend wellness elements with naturopathic medicine and biomedicine. Because Kneipp’s approach to health and healing today are mainly covered in German literature, this paper aims to provide a broader international audience with insights into his life and his treatment methods and to highlight the profound influence Kneipp has had to this day on natural and preventive medicine. The paper emphasizes in particular the continued popularity of Kneipp’s holistic approach to health and well-being, which is evident in the many national and international Kneipp Associations, the globally operating Kneipp Werke, postgraduate qualifications in his treatment methods, and the existence of more than 60 accredited Kneipp spas and health resorts in Germany alone. Introduction in hundreds of accredited Kneipp spas and health resorts across Europe. In Germany,
