About Us

Integrative medicine, supported by our community.

Steiner Health is a 501(c)3 nonprofit based on the principle of community supported anthroposophic medicine. We both rely on and serve our community of patients, donors, and volunteers. We founded a first of its kind, sliding scale patient organization. We work on projects concerning health and education in southeast Michigan, and we price our programs to be as accessible as possible.

“We start with a biography to understand the context of the illness. Then we use all the tools, nutrition, complementary therapies, plant based medicine and conventional medicine if necessary.”

It has been a total joy to be able to be here for two weeks. Everyone is so kind, pleasant, and nonjudgmental. You make us feel totally excepted no matter what we do or say. I have felt like I was in a cocoon of love. The whole program is wonderful.

What is Anthroposophic Medicine?

Working with Nature for Your Health

Anthroposophic medicine is a form of medical practice developed by Rudolf Steiner that combines spiritual insight with practical diagnosis and healing to address the body as a whole. Conventional and complementary practices are integrated with homeopathics, plant medicines, and natural remedies to create holistic treatments. Over time, other therapeutic disciplines such as art, music, massage, and movement therapy have developed within the broader anthroposophic practice.
