5-pillar Philosophy

Apart from water and medicinal herbs, Sebastian Kneipp made active use of other elements related to human health. The result of his work was his 5-pillar philosophy. It becomes a holistic approach to healthy living through the use and interaction of five pillars, which are water, plants, exercise, nutrition and balance.
