About Me

Born in 1956, I am a lively, living testament to the benefits of lifelong learning in the intersecting fields of bodywork and nutrition for health.

After first graduating in German Literature and Slavic Languages from the Free University Berlin, I completed certified training in physiotherapy. I then gained further expertise, in particular in treatment of back and shoulders, working as a physiotherapist at the Charité-Virchow clinics in Berlin (1995–2001).

Already in the 1980s I began exploring the influence of nutrition and
“alternative” bodywork on human health.

In January 2003 I opened my own natural health practice in Berlin-Kreuzberg

In 2006 I completed my training as a certified Shiatsu therapist under the auspices of the European Shiatsu Institute (ESI) Berlin
