Traditional Chinese Medicine

The philosophy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, TCM for short, is based on a holistic way of thinking and considers the human organism as a unit. Health means maintaining one's inner harmony. TCM can be used for various conditions such as pain, sleep disorders, digestive problems and stress. The goal is to restore the balance of body, mind and environment and to activate the body's self-healing powers.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the life energy "Qi" is the root of all energy. Harmony and balance are only possible with an even, constant flow of Qi. TCM can heal many chronic and acute diseases, alleviate the associated symptoms, ease pain and enhance wellbeing.

* The manual therapy of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is called Tui Na, and cannot be compared with the classic Western massage. Tui Na is an important part of Traditional Chinese Medicine. For people with a fear of needles or children, Tui-Na massage is a good alternative to acupuncture. By touching, massaging, pressing, rubbing and warming certain points, working over a large area along the pathways and mobilising the joints, the therapist influences the flow of energy (Qi) in order to harmonise yin and yang and restore the basic functions in the body.
