Humanity and health, 2nd episode: «Therapeutic Intuition: Bridging between guidelines and the art of medicine»

What else is there, when all the knowledge that is given from
protocols and guidelines doesn’t fit? What helps a doctor or
therapist meet the needs of an individual patient? How can we
come to a diagnosis and therapy that goes beyond numbers and
facts, beyond the laboratory findings and diagnostic testing that
sometimes still don’t add up to a clear image? Prof. Dr. Erik
Baars (MD, epidemiologist, senior healthcare researcher at the
Louis Bolk Institute and professor of Anthroposophic Medicine at
the University of Applied Sciences Leiden, NL) has evaluated and
documented scientific findings on “therapeutic intuition”. He
describes situations in which this  seemingly unconscious
knowledge suddenly arises in the midst of clinical practice, and
also what we can do to develop greater capacity for an intuitive
treatment approach and why this topic touches the core of
Anthroposophy.
