Moxa: Traditional Chinese therapy using dried mugwort. Heat applied to acupuncture points relieves pain and strengthens the immune system. It can be used in the form of a moxa cigar, cones, or a moxibustion box. In addition to the warmth, the scent of the glowing mugwort is also soothing.

What is acupressure
Acupressure in Basel is a branch of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Acupressure massage in Basel combines techniques from the well-known Western classical massage and the pleasant Tuina massage. The massage in Basel is designed based on a comprehensive medical history and the principles of traditional Chinese medicine.
What is the difference to classic massage
In contrast to acupressure in Basel, classical massage generally involves the use of oil, lotion, or a massage cream. This helps to release muscle tension and thus reduce physical discomfort. However, acupressure and TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) do not focus solely on physical complaints and pain; they also address emotional states and consider the overall condition of the patient, making it a holistic approach.
Traditionally, Tuina massage in Basel is performed over a cloth or clothing. With us, you have the choice — either directly on the skin with oil or over a cloth. Of course, this also depends on whether your acupressure treatment includes cupping or Gua Sha, as in these cases lotion or oil is indispensable.
How much does acupressure cost in Basel
The cost of an acupressure treatment in Basel is on average between 120 - 150 CHF per hour.
At Acupressure Massage Basel you can benefit from an interdisciplinary exchange between acupressure therapist, physiotherapy and osteopathy if required.
In addition, all therapy methods such as Tuina, Moxa, cupping, and Gua Sha are included in our rate of CHF 140 per hour and are not charged extra. This means you benefit from the best possible treatment without having to worry about money.
Depending on your supplementary insurance, the treatment can be reimbursed up to 100%. Thanks to our EMR certification for the "acupressure" method, we are automatically included in all supplementary insurance plans that recognize the certificate.
To be on the safe side, we recommend that you clarify the amount of reimbursement with your insurance company in advance.
Which complaints can be treated with acupressure
Muscle tension, headaches , migraines , sleep disorders, menstrual problems, and much more are symptoms that can be treated with acupressure or TCM in Basel. TCM fundamentally assumes that the life energy "Qi" flows through our bodies. In a symptom-free organism, everything is in flow and balance.
Our lifestyle, such as daily work, lack of exercise, but also genetics or emotions, can disrupt these flows, leading to blockages or imbalances. Acupressure massage in Basel aims to rebalance these imbalances and release blockages. This alleviates symptoms and returns the body to its normal physiological state.

TCM Basel
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a holistic medical system that has been practiced for over 2,000 years. It is based on the concept of Qi—life energy—which flows through the body through a network of pathways (meridians). The goal of TCM Basel is to maintain or restore the balance of yin and yang and the free flow of Qi.
The most important methods include acupuncture and acupressure, which specifically stimulate energy points to release blockages, relieve pain and activate the body's self-healing powers.
At our TCM practice in Basel, we combine traditional knowledge with modern diagnostics – for a holistic understanding of health. Discover the effects of acupuncture and acupressure in Basel.
Massage Basel
At first glance, an acupressure treatment can feel similar to a massage — but the difference lies in the depth of the method. Unlike classical massage, acupressure in Basel specifically aims to influence the body’s energy pathways (meridians).
Through techniques such as stroking, kneading, tapping, or gentle joint stretching, the flow of energy (Qi) is activated, blockages are released, and inner balance is strengthened. The treatment is always tailored individually to your body and your current complaints.
Thanks to traditional diagnostic methods like pulse and tongue diagnosis, we can closely observe changes during the session and continuously adjust the treatment — whether through acupressure or targeted massage in Basel.
Treating headaches with acupressure
Headaches and migraines are among the most common complaints of our time – often stress-related, sometimes without a clear cause. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM Basel), with its holistic approach, offers an effective alternative to purely symptomatic treatment. In TCM, headaches are considered an expression of disrupted energy flow in the body. Targeted acupressure and Tuina massage can release blockages and restore the balance of Qi and blood. Acupressure is particularly effective for migraines, tension headaches, and stress-related complaints. In our Basel acupressure practice, we combine in-depth TCM knowledge with modern diagnostics – individually tailored to your needs. Discover natural ways to treat headaches and experience lasting relief without medication. Schedule your appointment in Basel now!
