Centre for Integrative, Complementary Medicine & TCM (ZIMT)

"Our focus is not on your complaints, but on you as a person with all your needs." Prof. (chin.). Jingtao Dong, Head of TCM, Senior Physician at the Centre for Integrative, Complementary Medicine & TCM (ZIMT)

Integrative medicine sees itself as a combination of conventional and complementary medicine. It is interdisciplinary and focussed on your needs. This is because you as a person - with body, soul and spirit - are at the centre and are actively involved in the treatment. In our Centre for Integrative, Complementary Medicine and TCM (ZIMT), all therapies take place under the supervision of a medical specialist.
