The greatest and most articulate of the pioneers of the Nature Cure movement. Dr Henry Lindlahr was the greatest and most articulate of the pioneers of the Nature Cure movement. Originating in Europe in the early twentieth century, Nature Cure laid the foundations for much of complementary medicine and naturopathy as we know it today. Eloquent and passionate about his theories, in this ground-breaking book Lindlahr considers the role of diet, natural remedies and preventative therapies as well as other practical ways to maintain and promote physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing. Philosophy of Natural Therapeutics is in many respects a work that remains as relevant today as when it was written. Well ahead of its time, it highlights the interdependency of humankind, offers methods to prevent disease and lays down the basic natural laws upon which health depends.
