Auriculotherapy & INTEGRATIVE MEDICINE
In Auriculotherapy (or Auricular Acupuncture), specific points on the ear are stimulated to treat a wide range of conditions. This can be done with needles but also with other techniques such as cryotherapy.
Integrative Medicine stands for integrating or combining complementary and classical treatment methods. This creates a wider range of therapeutic options. The most suitable treatment is proposed for each problem and for each individual patient.
In addition to Auriculotherapy, proposed treatments can include Acupuncture, Neural Therapy, Orthomolecular medicine, Phytotherapy and Homeopathy.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you be my GP?
In my practice I mainly treat chronic complaints and only work by appointment. I do not replace your general practitioner, but work closely with specialists and GPs.
Can I claim back the cost of a consultation from my health insurance?
Yes, but only partially. Certain health insurances offer extended coverage for complementary medicine. Contact your health insurance provider.
Can you do a blood test?
Certainly. A blood test may be necessary for an accurate diagnosis, as might a referral for further examinations.
How long does a consultation take?
A consultation takes about half an hour and is only by appointment.
Do I need to bring something to the consultation?
Bring as much information along as you can: list of medication, results of previous examinations,… You can also email them to me.
Do you prescribe conventional medication?
Yes, I also prescribe conventional medication if necessary, although I prefer to start with alternative medication like homeopathy, phytotherapy and nutritional supplements. A combination is equally possible.
