Treatment philosophy at nayandei

When mind, body and soul function in harmony with each other, this is the result of perfect health and natural life-enhancing intelligence

.

In my practice in Kleinbasel, I combine proven traditional healing knowledge from China with Western openness. At nayandei, you will receive serious and competent health-promoting and preventive treatments according to the complementary medical methods of Traditional Chinese Medicine TCM.

In my work as a TCM therapist, I preserve the integrity of your individual being and balance your Qi energy and Xue blood using the classical methods of Chinese medicine. Put simply, every illness is based on a disharmonious pattern of yin and yang that needs to be corrected.

A detailed questionnaire, pulse and tongue diagnosis are used to make a differentiated diagnosis according to the concept of Chinese medicine. This provides information about your illness and constitution and determines the selection of suitable therapy applications for you. The TCM methods support your body's self-healing processes. In my practice

• Acupuncture (ear, electro, cranial acupuncture),
• Chinese medicines,
• Tui Na massage,
• Cupping,
• Gua Sha

to the application. I use these methods to support you on your path to health. Depending on the clinical picture, I combine different methods to positively influence the course of treatment.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a Qi balancing therapy in which specific organ systems are stimulated or calmed. After a detailed diagnosis, fine needles are placed on selected acupuncture points on the surface of the body, where they unfold their effect. On average, 4 to 12 acupuncture points are stimulated.

Ear acupuncture

This method is a special form of body acupuncture. All body zones can be found in the ear as reflex zones. As with body acupuncture, individual zones are activated by the finest needles. Permanent needles can be used to support your system in addition to the treatments, e.g. hay fever

Chinese medicinal therapy

Chinese medicines are individually formulated for each patient according to their energetic imbalance. These are boiled and taken in the form of a decoction. Dosage forms such as granules, capsules, ointments or drops are available to simplify ingestion.

Moxibustion

This method involves heating selected acupuncture points or meridians with glowing mugwort (Chinese: Ai Ye, Latin: Artemisia vulgaris). Mugwort can be shaped into different forms, which enables different applications, such as needle moxa, rice grain moxa or indirect moxa on a ginger slice.

Tui Na therapy

This method is one of the oldest TCM therapy methods. Tui Na combines highly effective massage techniques, acupressure and chiropractic techniques. Various grip techniques such as Tui - pushing, Na - grasping, are used. The aim is to harmonize the life forces by regulating the flow of Qi and Xue. Special oils or massage cloths are used during the massage.

Cupping & Gua Sha

So-called cupping glasses are heated by a small flame, creating a vacuum. The glasses are placed on the desired acupuncture points and stick to the skin.
In Gua Sha, a porcelain spoon or similar is scraped over an area of skin several times until a clear discoloration becomes visible.
