Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

I am a registered TCM naturopath with a foreign diploma recognized by the Swiss Red Cross (SRC) (registration number: NHP-TCMHFP20187).

Many Swiss supplementary insurances reimburse my treatments, provided you have an appropriate complementary insurance plan.

My main treatment focus:

  • TCM acupuncture – gentle, precise, and almost painless
  • TCM orthopedics – for back, joint, and movement-related pain
  • TCM manual techniques (chiropractic-style) – hands-on correction based on TCM principles
  • TCM Tuina massage – to regulate energy flow and blood circulation

I treat patients directly in German or English – without a translator – for clear, trustworthy communication.
