Medical Philosophy

 

At the center of her medical work is respectful treatment of people and nature.

Her approach is based on the conviction that healing arises through the activation of the body's own regulatory and regenerative processes.

Movement plays a central role here — both at the level of the joints and musculoskeletal system, and at the level of cell metabolism and biological energy processes.

Her medical guiding principle is:

Healing begins where stagnation turns back into movement.
