Individual-therapeutic ambience

For acupuncture sessions, you can choose between two treatment rooms, which differ in their therapeutic colour and temperature effects:

Relaxing and refreshing green

Energizing red

Why classical acupuncture?

If acupuncture points are selected and precisely located according to a Chinese diagnostic methods, studies have shown that the effect is approximately 30% greater than with schematic “cookie cutter approach”. Thanks to the extremely fine needles, the prick is hardly felt, after which – with correct TCM acupuncture – the so-called “de qi feeling” is felt, a dull pressure, a tingling sensation or a feeling of warmth.

Moxibustion

A stick of pressed mugwort, the “moxa cigar”, is used to apply high-energy infrared heat to acupuncture points.

Ear acupuncture

Ear acupuncture probably originated in the Arab world and was taken up and developed by the French doctor Paul Nogier. Ear acupuncture helps with joint pain, giving up smoking, weight loss and relaxation.



Worldwide medicinal herbs

In European herbal medicine, much knowledge has been lost at the stake. In China, medicinal herbs have been used, tested and expanded without interruption for over 2000 years. Wherever possible, I initially work with Western medicinal herbs, so that I can supplement them with Chinese herbal decoctions if necessary. 
If medicinal herbs are to be effective and tolerated well by the patient, herbs must be sourced from certified pharmacist and subject to qualitiy control, and the medical professional must have undergone in depth training in their effective use.

Nutritional counselling

“Which diet is really healthy?” One-sided and short-lived fad diets can be countered firstly by empirical medicine and secondly by large, international, long-term observational studies, known under the keyword EPIC. In my nutritional counselling, I combine Western and Eastern empirical knowledge and the results of large-scale studies to create a treatment plan which is tailor-made for you. Because in the long term, only what is good for you and, above all, what tastes good, will be effective and will convince you!
