Heilpraktiker and physiotherapist in Dillingen, Saarland

Anatomical model of the lumbar spine with nerve roots

My practice is in Dillingen, Saarland, about a 15-minute drive from the French border and 30 minutes from the Luxembourg border. Patients from both countries come to see me regularly.

What is a “Heilpraktiker”?

The Heilpraktiker is a German healthcare profession with no direct equivalent elsewhere. It is an official licence to practise medicine, granted by the public health authority after an examination. I received mine in 2000 from the health office in Saarbrücken.

I am not a doctor and I do not replace yours. I have also been a state-certified physiotherapist since 1994.

What I offer

  • Osteopathy, including paediatric osteopathy for babies and children
  • Chiropractic, including work on the atlas vertebra
  • Craniosacral therapy
  • Physiotherapy, also for athletes
  • Bobath therapy for neurological conditions

Which language?

My working language is German. I speak English well – better than French – so we will understand each other without difficulty.

For a detailed conversation about emotional matters, German is still easier for me. Tell me on the phone what suits you best.

Fees and appointments

A session lasts 45 to 90 minutes, usually an hour, and costs between 80 and 120 euros depending on its length and what is required. I tell you the amount before the first session.

Mine is a private practice. Foreign health insurers generally do not cover these treatments; please check with your insurer before you come.
