Alex Bechinger

I come from a family where therapeutic work has always been part of everyday life. Patients regularly came to our home, and my grandfather, who practiced as a healer in Colombia, inspired a tradition my mother continued.

After training as a registered nurse (HF), I increasingly moved toward hands-on therapeutic work. I later qualified in craniosacral therapy and earned a degree in Chinese medicine. Years of experience across hospitals, elder care, end-of-life care, and leadership roles in healthcare deepened my commitment to focus fully on therapy, work that I find deeply fulfilling.

I continue to train extensively, first in nutrition and for several years now in classical Chinese medicine. I am currently completing a program in functional medicine at IFM in the United States. A key focus of my practice is supporting people with autoimmune conditions, combining Chinese medicine approaches with advanced diagnostic testing and individualized lifestyle and nutrition strategies. Alongside my clinical work, I teach at the London College of Acupuncture and will soon also teach in Switzerland.
