The practice
Eurythmy therapy works through the principle that specific movement patterns resonate with and influence particular organ systems and physiological processes. The vowel-based movements are understood to address inner organ function, while consonant-based movements engage the musculoskeletal and metabolic systems. The therapeutic movements are designed to re-establish rhythmic balance between the body's nerve-sense, rhythmic, and metabolic-limb systems — the three-fold organismic model central to anthroposophic medicine.
