About
For a first acquaintance, the exact recording of your complaints and a thorough examination, I take a full hour. Only in this way is it possible to make a holistic diagnosis according to the rules of Traditional Chinese Medicine and to design a personal treatment plan for you. TCM treatment methods do not have to replace Western conventional medicine, but complement it in a meaningful way. Together we will then discuss and plan the course of your treatment and the time perspective.
I mainly use classical body acupuncture (needle acupuncture), often also in combination with superficial, painless permanent needles - a great alternative especially for the treatment of sensitive persons or children. If an increase in effect is desired, electro-acupuncture (EAP) can be used - here a light stimulation current is applied, similar to a TENS unit. If necessary, ear acupuncture or neural therapy (infiltration of trigger points with local anesthetics), massage techniques such as Tuina or acupressure, cupping treatment or targeted heat application (moxabustion, infrared lamp, grain pillow) can also be considered. As in Western orthodox medicine, TCM also uses effective medicines - in the form of medicinal herb mixtures (phytotherapy). Nutritional counseling according to the recommendations of TCM and taking into account individual life circumstances and habits is often useful to achieve the desired treatment goal.
Overweight and obesity is a complex disturbance of the hormonal balance between leptin and ghrelin as a result of wrong eating habits, stress, lack of sleep and exercise. Breaking this cycle is almost impossible without professional help. By stimulating the metabolism, regulating the leptin-ghrelin control circuit and its psychologically balancing effect, acupuncture can support you effectively and without side effects in permanently reducing your weight as part of a balanced, accompanying change in diet. The latest studies are promising! Find out more about my holistic, innovative AcuSlim program!
are the most common reason why patients choose acupuncture and TCM. Pain reduces the quality of life, disturbs sleep, and the permanent use of painkillers is not infrequently associated with undesirable side effects. For acute pain, acupuncture often provides rapid improvement, but for chronic pain, 10 -15 acupuncture treatments or more may be necessary.
Peripheral polyneuropathies usually develop without an identifiable cause (idiopathic PNP), or they are a consequence of diabetes (diabetic PNP) or chemotherapy (CIPNP). Those affected suffer considerably from pain, restlessness (restless legs), burning sensations, and sensory disturbances in the feet and legs (or even hands), balance is impaired by the sensory disturbances, walking is laborious, and often the complaints do not allow undisturbed sleep. Medications that act on the nervous system often help only unsatisfactorily and can have significant side effects (fatigue, impaired driving ability). Studies show that acupuncture treatments can relieve discomfort and improve nerve conduction velocities in many PNP patients.
Acupuncture and TCM
- are free of side effects and sustainable, treat causes, not only symptoms
- are self-effective, provide help for self-help and are a valuable supplement to Western conventional medicine
- balance the body's own regulatory circuits and activate self-healing mechanisms
- should be applied individually, reliably and regularly for this purpose
