I love TCM David Kucher (Zürich)

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is an alternative medicine that goes back several millennia of development. However, it became known in Europe only in the middle of the last century, especially through the spread of acupuncture. This technique, in which the thinnest needles are used to influence the state of health, is only one of the 5 pillars of TCM.

The "internal medicine" of TCM - phytotherapy (also herbalism or herbal medicine) - moved much later to our latitudes. Phytotherapy is particularly suitable to effectively treat so-called "inner patterns".

TuiNa (massage) is the aspect of TCM that takes care of the muscular well-being of the body. In addition, dietary changes and mindfulness training are included in almost all treatments.

Which technique is the most suitable for a sick person is decided by the competently trained therapist and the patient together.

Switzerland is a pioneer in the field of TCM, as these treatments are also covered by supplementary insurance, provided they are carried out by a qualified therapist.

What can I treat with TCM In principle, almost all symptoms that do not require an acute medical diagnosis can be treated with TCM.
