Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)
"Our focus is not on your complaints, but on you as a person with all your needs." Prof. (chin.). Jingtao Dong, Head of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is based on 3000 years of medical knowledge. It considers the harmonious interplay of polar forces and offers a wide range of complementary treatments to conventional medicine. TCM is particularly effective for chronic complaints. After a comprehensive consultation and a pulse and tongue diagnosis, our TCM therapists will draw up a personalised treatment plan for you.

Comprehensive diagnosis
In addition to a thorough interview and examination of the person, the diagnosis also includes an assessment of body sounds and odours. The pulse and tongue also provide important information.
Gentle and painless acupuncture thanks to laser needle therapy
The blocked life energy is activated by inserting needles at certain points on the body. In our practice, we also practise acupuncture with laser needles. For patients who are particularly sensitive to pain and for children, treatment is carried out with a red laser beam on the acupuncture points.
