Eurythmy therapy
Eurythmy therapy is a movement therapy from anthroposophic medicine. It has been derived from eurythmy.
A person receiving eurythmy therapy moves under the guidance of a eurythmy therapist, who will have been trained two years beyond the four-year fundamental course in eurythmy. The movements may be adapted to the condition of the person being treated; for example, they may be done while either sitting or even lying down.[1] Therapeutic eurythmy is claimed to bring about a "re-integration of body, soul, and spirit."[2][3]
A 2008 review in BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine said that eurythmy was a "potentially relevant add-on" to a therapeutic program,[4] but though the studies reviewed reported improvement in symptoms, limitations in the underlying data and in the review methods means these conclusions "warrant cautious interpretation".[5][3]
