Hi, my name is Akiko Etoh Vogel, the owner and founder of this healing center since 2002. I am also a mother, wife, Japanese-American woman, doctor, acupuncturist and energy worker. I began my medical training in conventional Western medicine in Wayne State University (Detroit, Michigan (USA) where I earned my medical degree.
Afterwards, I sought to focus more on the root of healing through natural, holistic and energetic approaches. I pursued further training in East Asian Medicine (formerly known as TCM Traditional Chinese Medicine) at the Seattle Institute of East Asian Medicine. in Seattle, WA) There, I studied various styles of acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, Qi gong and nutrition, earning my Master’s in Acupuncture & East Asian Medicine. Since then, I have trained and been certified in various modalities of acupuncture, east-asian and energy medicine.
I specialize in Japanese-style acupuncture, a gentle and painless approach that is particularly beneficial for children, sensitive individuals, pregnant women, those dealing with emotional or psychosomatic concerns, and people who are afraid of needles. As a master energy worker, I am a Reiki Master, Quantum Touch practitioner, Quick Pulse and Ancestral Clearing practitioner, as well as an Eden Energy Medicine Clinical Practitioner and Heartcircle facilitator. I integrate these energy healing techniques when needed or requested.
My mission is to support healing and wholeness in a natural and gentle way, helping as many people as possible to heal and empower themselves. I am continuously learning and expanding my knowledge, consciousness, and skills.
I speak fluent English, German (both Swiss and High German), and Japanese. With my global background, extensive experience, and holistic training, I am dedicated to guiding you towards harmony of body, mind, and spirit. My approach blends East and West, ancient and modern, and addresses both structural and energetic imbalances in a compassionate, individualized manner.
