Anthroposophic Medicine – A Human-Centered Approach to Health, Harmony, Lifelong Learning & Healing

Dr. A. Schaeffer-Pautz, M.D., practices Anthroposophic Medicine, an integrative medical system recognized by the World Health Organization. Developed in the early 1900s by Rudolf Steiner, it extends conventional medicine through a holistic wholesome understanding of the physical body, soul, and spirit, seeking to restore balance and vitality in the human being.

Anthroposophic Medicine uses individualized treatments that may include herbal and homeopathic remedies, lifestyle and spiritual counseling, artistic therapies, rhythmic massage, hydrotherapy, and therapeutic eurythmy—a unique movement therapy bridging body and spirit.

At Persephone Healing Arts Center, Dr. Pautz combines her board certification in Internal and Integrative Medicine with decades of study in anthroposophy, eurythmy, and integrative holistic therapies. Her care is deeply personalized, addressing the roots of illness while guiding each patient toward greater self-awareness, balance, and well-being.
