Acupuncture in Geneva
Chinese medicine is one of the oldest and most renowned health systems in the world, based on a holistic approach that treats the patient as a whole. It integrates not only the body, but also the mind and soul, enabling each treatment to be tailored to individual needs. This means that no two patients are treated in the same way, as each approach is unique.
Chinese medicine emphasizes the importance of regulating the Qi, or vital energy, in the body, as well as improving oxygenation. This process is known as homeostasis, where the therapist encourages the body to self-regulate and heal itself.
This self-regulation can be encouraged by various techniques, such as the insertion of fine needles into precise points called acupuncture points. Other methods, such as massage, moxibustion, Gua Sha and cupping, also enrich the field of action of Chinese medicine.
Natural Medicine
‘You never cure a disease by eliminating it, you replace it with something better.’ Extract from the Huangdi Nei Jing
Natural medicine encompasses a wide range of healing practices that use natural means to prevent and treat disease. Unlike conventional medicine, which often relies on chemical drugs or surgical interventions, natural medicine relies on remedies derived from nature, often with an emphasis on a healthy lifestyle, diet and herbal treatments. Natural medicine also promotes homeostasis, the body’s self-healing process.

I became a therapist over ten years ago, driven by a deep fascination for human beings and the way they live and function. I have always felt the need to help and to make a meaningful contribution. Every encounter with my patients is an opportunity to explore their unique story, and I place great importance on active listening. I am convinced that many illnesses could be avoided if we took more time to listen to each other.
