  Medicinal plant science, or phytotherapy, plays a central role in naturopathy and is very close to my heart. Nature provides us with a treasure trove of medicinal plants.

I have now specialized in herbal medicine, intestinal health, and leech therapy. After completing my training, I undertook intensive further training in leech therapy with Dr. D. Kähler (Hirumed in Wil). I also completed further training in gynecology and pediatrics, and wrote my thesis on naturopathic treatment for infertility. Another of my areas of expertise is edible wild herbs, and I am happy to lead wild herb and medicinal plant excursions on request. For me, nature itself has the greatest healing power. I see it as a kind of primal mother to us all, which is why I enjoy taking my clients out into the great outdoors on request.

Another area of great interest to me is the human intestinal flora, whose composition and health is of great relevance to virtually all clinical pictures. I am constantly continuing my education in this area and successfully applying this knowledge in my practice. In addition, I experiment a lot in my private life with the fermentation of various foods and thus the production of natural probiotics to maintain or build up the intestinal flora. If you are interested, I am happy to provide further information.

In my treatments, I draw parallels to other holistic medical systems such as Chinese TCM and Indian Ayurveda. For example, I take meridians and individual acupuncture points into account in my work and also use moxa therapy if indicated.

As an experienced yoga teacher, the topics of relaxation and stress management, movement, body awareness, and breathing are very important to me and are incorporated into my work. I am also happy to advise you on questions concerning mindfulness and meditation or recommend exercises from these areas. As part of my yoga teacher training, I also studied the teachings of the chakras intensively, and my knowledge of these important energy centers is also incorporated into my work.

Every treatment begins with a detailed medical history. This forms the basis and, in combination with various diagnostic methods, it becomes clear which direction the therapy should take. I like to allow 60 to 90 minutes for this.

By the way: during their training, naturopaths must complete 600 hours of conventional medical basics such as anatomy, physiology, and pathology (the study of health and disease). So I also have a sound knowledge in this area.
