Practice for Traditional Chinese Medicine
Welcome to daoQi - Your Personal TCM Practice in Oerlikon
As an experienced therapist in Traditional Chinese Medicine, I support you with stress-related symptoms (such as sleep disturbances, inner restlessness, or exhaustion) as well as with pain and tension in the musculoskeletal system.
At my practice in Oerlikon, I also accompany you on your journey to gentle weight loss with TCM – helping to naturally stimulate your metabolism, regulate cravings, and enhance your overall sense of well-being.
My Services
Acupuncture
Targeted needle stimulation of specific acupuncture points for effective pain relief, sustainable stress reduction and targeted treatment of allergies. This millennia-old method harmonises your Qi flow and activates the self-healing powers of your body.
Herbal Medicine
Individually compiled herbal recipes based on a precise TCM diagnosis, which are precisely tailored to your personal complaints, constitution and life situation. The healing power of traditional Chinese herbs supports your body holistically and sustainably.
Tuina
Traditional Chinese massage techniques for deep muscle relaxation and the release of blockages. This manual therapy promotes blood circulation, stimulates the flow of energy in the meridians and supports the regeneration of tissue and the nervous system.
What is Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)?
Yin & Yang
The fundamental concept of complementary opposites, whose harmonious balance forms the basis for physical and mental health.
Qi - Life Energy
The essential life force that circulates through meridians, regulates all bodily functions, and whose flow is crucial for vitality and well-being.
Meridian System
A network of energy pathways along which acupuncture points lie and through which Qi flows harmoniously through the entire organism.

Especially for pain and tension in the musculoskeletal system, stress-related or psychosomatic symptoms, exhaustion, allergies, women’s health issues, or for gentle weight loss through metabolic regulation, it can provide valuable support.
Prices & Appointment Arrangement
I am accepted by all health insurance companies through the supplementary insurance. I recommend that you clarify the cost coverage of the health insurance company before the first treatment.
About Me
My path to Traditional Chinese Medicine began with a five-year study at the Academy for TCM and Asian Medicine in Winterthur. After graduating, I gained valuable practical experience in Vietnam before being able to support the psychiatric clinic "Schlössli" in Oetwil am See in 2009. I was then an important part of the complementary offering at the Oerlikon Medical Centre for 9 years. Now I offer my services in the historic ABB building directly at Oerlikon station.
As a certified member of the TCM Professional Association Switzerland, I specialise in acupuncture, Tuina massage and herbal medicine.

What does "daoQi" mean - explained simply
The term "daoQi" is made up of two Chinese words:
  • Dao (道) means: the way, the direction, the natural flow of life
  • Qi (氣) means: life energy, breath, inner drive
Together, daoqi means:
The way of life energy
Or: how energy naturally flows in the body and connects with the environment.
In Chinese medicine, they speak of daoQi when the treatment - for example through acupuncture - restores the natural flow of energy in the body.
In short:
daoQi is the moment when body and energy come into harmony.
