Nutrition & Weightloss

In addition to my nutrition and acupuncture consultations, where I have been supporting my patients in managing their weight and overall well-being for over 20 years, I also offer specialized culinary consultations.

These sessions provide personalized recipes and guidance to help you prepare balanced, original, and delicious dishes that suit your tastes.

This service, unique in Geneva within a medical practice, empowers you to take charge of your diet in a way that aligns with both your body and mind.

Nutrition, diet, overweight: What are the health issues?

For more than 20 years, I have devoted a large part of my consultations to nutrition, weight management, diet, and, more broadly, the care of the body, soul, and mind. This vast and complex subject requires first and foremost a real awareness on the part of the patient.

Like an architect who, depending on the wishes of the client, assesses their feasibility according to the nature of the terrain, the layout, and the available budget, my work consists of determining if my patients' goals are in harmony with their physiological and psychological reality.

From the first consultation, we will evaluate together if you are ready to engage in a process of sustainable and successful weight loss – a vital commitment for your health, for your survival.

As Hippocrates so wisely said: "Let your food be your only medicine." My approach is based on clear and pragmatic principles. You will be the main actor in your transformation.

During our discussions, I will explain how to structure your meals, understand the chemistry of food and the physiological reactions that occur as soon as you ingest a food, a nutrient, or a liquid. You will receive real knowledge immediately usable on proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, their metabolism, their storage, and their elimination (or not).

These fundamental knowledge are essential to ensure the success of your process. After our first appointment, I will tell you with full transparency if your goals are realistic and achievable, or if you need to refine your mental, psychological, or social preparation.

The main obstacles to this "qualification" are often addictions (whether food-related or others), erroneous beliefs – notably on fats, light products, or misleading advertising messages – as well as errors rooted in food education.

I work to deconstruct these beliefs and treat these addictions through Ericksonian hypnosis, a method that gives very encouraging results. When you are ready, and once we have established a relationship of trust, two monthly acupuncture sessions will complement our work to ensure effective follow-up.

The acupuncture protocols aim to stimulate your emunctories, i.e., your body's elimination systems, particularly the hepatic and renal spheres. Any other approach – such as miracle diets or magic powders – is doomed to failure, with a high risk of weight regain.
