Our practice in Unterägeri offers you a variety of services related to acupuncture and complementary medicine.
Super-fine needles stimulate specific points that lie on energy lines, or so-called meridians, to loosen muscle knots (trigger points) as well as to activate blockages.
In laser therapy, red light is directed painlessly into the body via optical fibers. These are gently applied to the skin and then radiate precisely into the area to be treated.
To get a holistic health picture of you, we use traditional methods such as analyzing the tongue, feeling the radial pulse rate and palpating pressure points. Modern methods such as blood pressure measurement and electronic assessment of the meridians may also be used.
This needle-free form of therapy utilizes gentle electrical stimulation by way of electrodes or probes to balance the body and meridians. The integration of color therapy into the treatment magnifies the balancing effect.
Regarded as 'special food', herbs can be taken as teas, tinctures, powders, capsules or tablets. They are very effective in nourishing, strengthening and regulating body processes, including the immune system.
Techniques such as Tuina massage and acupressure are used to relax muscles, break up scar tissue and to positively influence the flow of energy in the body via the meridian system.
A so-called cupping glass creates a suction so that the skin and superficial muscle layers are drawn into the glass to increase the flow of stagnated blood and lymph. It is used to reduce stiffness and pain and to relieve symptoms such as asthma, arthritis, bronchitis, and abdominal pain.
A stick of compacted Chinese herb is warmed up and placed over or on the body. The aim is to strengthen the blood, stimulate the flow of energy, reduce pain and maintain overall health, including the immune system.
The electrolysis foot bath de-acidifies and purifies the body of harmful substances. This purely physical method is deeply and gently effective at the same time, is extremely well-tolerated and can be easily combined with other forms of therapy.
Gels containing herbs and natural ingredients are gently micro-massaged into the affected skin and tissues by way of vital waves which vibrate up to 900,000 cycles per second. This therapy has a pain-reducing effect and stimulates local blood circulation.
Our biggest compliment is happy patients who want to share their satisfaction with others.
