Prof. Dr. Andreas Michalsen: Healing with the power of nature
My experience from practice and research – What really helps

Published: November 16, 2020

Since the first edition of this book was published, the world has been shaken by two fundamental events: the climate crisis and the coronavirus crisis. Both global crises are directly related to this book and make it even clearer how naturopathy can be life-saving for humanity and the planet. Naturopathy offers individually tailored healing programs whose effectiveness has long been scientifically proven. It is also used specifically to prevent disease, strengthen the immune system, and stimulate the body's own self-healing powers.

Conventional medicine still excludes naturopathy, even though our society has long since made up its mind: two-thirds of all patients want to be treated with naturopathy.

Many doctors believe these are just home remedies without a scientific basis. "Wrong," says Andreas Michalsen, a professor at the Charité Berlin: "Modern naturopathy is scientifically sound, and it is the only answer to the growing number of chronic illnesses." In the USA, naturopathic medicine receives $250 million in government support annually; in Germany, Andreas Michalsen is one of the pioneers combining traditional healing knowledge and cutting-edge research in innovative ways.
Massive side effects and a lack of trust – drug-based medicine has reached a dead end. Therefore, more and more researchers are interested in the principles of traditional healing methods.

The professor of clinical naturopathy and chief physician at the Immanuel Hospital in Berlin explains why he left the conventional path of medicine and what potential of nature he rediscovers with his patients every day.

With the collaboration of Dr. Petra Thorbrietz. Edited by Friedrich-Karl Sandmann.
