What is the procedure for my first appointment?

 

• We talk about current and past ailments, illnesses and medication intake, as well as diet and lifestyle
• There will be enough time to answer general questions about TCM or conventional medicine and to discuss existing findings together
• I look at your tongue and feel the pulse according to the examination technique of TCM
• If necessary for the initial findings, I do a clinical examination
• In between, I will explain my first impressions to you and translate the terms of TCM for you so that you can better understand what factors are currently throwing you out of balance
• If necessary for holistic diagnostics, I arrange for further findings to be carried out
• Finally, I will create an individual therapy plan for you - I will explain the main forms of therapy, acupuncture and herbal therapy. If necessary, conventional medical therapy is of course also used

 

Of course, I also give advice on a suitable diet so that your symptoms improve as quickly as possible

 

What do I have to consider before/after my (first) appointment?

 

When you enter the courtyard through the entrance gate, continue straight ahead. The practice is located in the middle of the courtyard on the right-hand side. Just enter and sign up. If the registration is not occupied, you are welcome to take a seat in the waiting area and have a drink.

 

In order to be able to carry out tongue diagnostics well, you should not clean the tongue with a tongue scraper in the morning. Please also do not take strongly colouring drinks or lozenges (e.g. coffee, red wine, etc.).

 

If acupuncture is planned, please wear loose clothing, as constricting garments reduce the effect of acupuncture.

 

You should not come to the treatment without breakfast, otherwise there may be problems with the circulation.

 

After the treatment, you usually feel very relaxed, maybe even a little tired. You are welcome to have a glass of tea before you set off again.

 

If you come by car, please allow enough time to find a parking space or garage space.

 

Die Rechnung kann bar, mit Bankomat oder per Netbanking bezahlt werden.

 

Nach der Akupunktur sollten Sie ausreichend trinken und sich nicht übermäßig anstrengen. Eventuell haben Sie das Bedürfnis sich auszuruhen - das sollten Sie dann auch tun. Aber selbstverständlich können Sie auch wieder zurück in die Arbeit gehen oder Sport machen.
