Our approach

No treatment without a plan

We start by listening: what is the complaint, how long has it been there, what have you tried and what is medically known? Only then do we decide on the approach together.

01

Intake

We discuss your complaint, your medical background and what you have already tried. That includes when we refer you back to your GP.

02

Treatment plan

You receive a concrete plan: goal, number of sessions, frequency and what you can do in between. No open-ended course.

03

Adjusting course

After three sessions we review together whether things are moving in the right direction. If not, we change the approach or stop.

Frequently asked questions

Practical information

Does acupuncture hurt?

The needles are very thin. Most people feel at most a brief dull sensation, and often fall asleep during treatment.

Is it reimbursed?

That depends on your supplementary insurance. Many insurers reimburse acupuncture only for practitioners who are members of a recognised professional association. We provide an invoice you can submit to your insurer.

How many sessions will I need?

For acute complaints usually two to four, for long-standing complaints six to ten. After the intake you receive a realistic estimate.

Should I inform my GP?

For persistent or unclear complaints we always advise having a doctor look at it first. Acupuncture does not replace medical examination.

Can I cancel an appointment?

You can cancel free of charge up to 24 hours in advance. For later cancellations we unfortunately have to charge the fee.

Unsure whether acupuncture is right for you?

Call or email first. We will tell you honestly whether treatment makes sense — even if the answer is no.
