Kuno van der Post

In 1997 life changed forever when my mother was struck down by a brain haemorrhage. At first we trusted the experts, but as time went by I saw a great disconnect between my understanding of science and health, and what I saw happening in medical practice. Then when standard rehabilitation services failed to help, we decided we could do better. She made an astounding recovery and led a very productive life for many years afterwards.
Taking this forwards, I trained in osteopathy, but eventually came up against many more disconnects - between healing theory and what takes place in healthcare practice of all kinds, medical and alternative. Healers, patients and doctors speak many different languages. We all talk about holism, working with nature, treating the whole person and so on: but there are many vastly conflicting ideas about what that all means.
Once I could see that this confusion was behind many of the problems in healthcare, it meant that a solution might be found in some kind of clear framework we might all be able to recognise. So I published my first book, Missing Links In Healing, in 2024. It is available on Amazon and other online outlets worldwide, and is aimed at a broad audience, but most especially towards the next generation of healers, and patients who are looking for a sense of direction.
In 2015 I moved to Australia, where I now live with my family, writing and seeing patients.
