to the website of my office for Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in Greifswalder Str. in  Berlin Prenzlauer Berg (please see → “Contact” for details).

I use an effective combination of TCM therapies to address chronic and acute pain and a variety of ailments. You are unique and so will be your treatment and healing process. Depending on your diagnosis you will be treated with a combination of acupuncture, tuina (medicinal massage), cupping and/or guasha. Herbal therapy and nutrition based on the principles of the Five Elements are a pillar of traditional Chinese medicine are included to a smaller or greater extent into the therapy. Meditation acupuncture or awareness acupuncture is a method by which I induce a meditative, deep relaxation state while you are treated by acupuncture. Patients treated by the combination of these methods usually get well faster than when using each therapy separately. If you select →  “indications” on the menu of this webpage, you can consult a list of symptoms and illnesses for which TCM has been applied successfully. For more information about the TCM therapies I offer in my office and their prices, please consult the menu point → “Therapies & Prices”.
