The origin of our herbal teas
Since the start of his practice in a cabinet in Switzerland, the Lingling Shi therapist has continued to work to make her knowledge of Chinese medicine useful to everyone and especially the local population.In 2017, she created the Biomed MTC office and can thus bring the best of the practice of acupuncture to patients.

Why is it important to take care of your health today?
Faced with the current situation that has been stuck for a long time, we are constantly wondering why not share our knowledge and experience?
Why are some of us much more sensitive to a type of pathologies when others are more resistant? For Chinese medicine, it depends on the physical terrain, the climate and the eating habits. We cannot influence the climate, but we can change certain eating habits and thereby improve our health.
In the cabinet, we also deal withphytotherapy, but the act remains on prescription and in cases of medium to advance pathologies. Prevention, on the other hand, is necessary in the current health context and lowers medical costs over the long term.
In all cultures, Mayans, Greek and Indo-European, it is based on the use of local products.In that spirit, the Lingling Shi therapist has developed a range of herbal teasMake domestic and wild herbs carefully selected depending on the climate, physical land and local food.
This range of five herbal teas is available in the office but also onOur website.
