Die Natur heilt: Die Entdeckung der Psychosomatik

Meer over het boek

Georg Groddeck, a pioneering figure in psychosomatic medicine, explored the interplay between psychological and physical health, particularly through his own experiences with illness. His 1917 work emphasized the need for psychoanalytic approaches in treating organic diseases, merging natural therapies with psychoanalytic and hypnotic techniques. Groddeck's methods, including baths, massages, and dietary regimens, continue to be utilized today, despite some of his more radical theories being reconsidered. Unlike Freud, he focused primarily on chronic illnesses, establishing himself as a unique voice in psychoanalysis.
