Compresses and poultices are extremely versatile and can be used to
treat a wide range of conditions. This practical handbook was
written for nurses and practitioners at the Ita Wegman Clinic in
Arlesheim, Switzerland, a centre of expertise for anthroposophical
nursing. The book covers all aspects of compresses and poultices,
including descriptions of the substances used and their healing
properties, and is based on many years' professional experience.
Rhythmic Einreibung is a therapy of rhythmic body oiling. Its
techniques were developed by Dr Margarethe Hauschka, based on
suggestions by Dr Ita Wegman, the founder of the clinic in
Switzerland which now bears her name. Dr Wegman trained in Swedish
massage. Rhythmic Einreibung is a development of this which
emphasises rhythmic elements and qualities which create lightness
rather than pressure. The strokes work with the surface of the
skin, rather than kneading the body as in traditional massage.
Featuring many practical exercises which help build up ability,
this book is suitable for both beginners, and for those seeking to
deepen their understanding of the techniques.
