Classical homeopathy

Classical homeopathy as a holistic, gentle and low side effect treatment is gaining popularity worldwide. The selection of over 1,200 products especially from plants and mineral allows a very individual prescription taken either as globules or drops. Dr. Samuel Hahnemann (1755 - 1843),a german physician and doctor coined the phrase "Similia similibus curentur" (let likes be cured by likes) – the similarity principle as the fundamental idea of homeopathy.

Microbiological therapy

The intestinal microflora forms a protective shield and adopts an important role to keep up a functional infection defense. The most common diseases in medical practice include chronic infection of the respiratory tract, digestive problems, food allergies, and eczema.

CEASE therapy

A special therapeutic approach of modern homeopathy in the treatment of behavioral problems, developed by the Dutch physician Dr. Tinus Smits (1946-2010). Contrary to classical homeopathy (“let likes be cured by likes”) homeopathic remedies are selected according to Isotherapy (“the cause is the cure”).

Kinesio taping

The kinesiology taping was developed by Dr. Kenzo Kase in Japan in the 70s. Main benefit is pain relief through improved blood circulation and lymph drainage without any drugs and thus particularly well suited for applications in pregnancy and in children.

Aromatherapy

Scents and smells are closely associated with our emotions and memories. Especially babys and children benefit from the gentle effects of essential oils and help comfort children through the common ups and downs of childhood.

Phytotherapy

Phytotherapy (herbal medicine) as one of the oldest remedies is practiced for thousands of years worldwide. Especially in paediatrics we use various applications such as teas, ointments and compresses.
