Ayurveda in my life

Hi, I am Tabea Wittmer and I am a Naturopath of Ayurveda Medicine in Lucerne. It is my pleasure to let you in on my journey to Ayurveda.

Already as a small child I learnt that, depending on the situation and the ailment one had to decide whether conventional medicine or natural remedies were the ideal way to a swift recovery.

I noticed that sometimes natural remedies and forms of therapy were simply best able to activate my self-healing powers.

In my mid-twenties I led a life marked by high levels of stress, instability and frequent travelling.

Consequently I developed a disease which may not be dangerous, but according to conventional western medicine is considered incurable and chronic. An illness that severly impaired my quality of life, and in addition, I was told, I would forever have to live with the pain and discomfort.

I had already got to know the science of Ayurveda 10 years earlier, when I came across a book about it. I was hooked from the very first minute, it was so simple yet so complex and it just made sense to me.

The diagnosis in mind, I was simply hoping to relieve my body and mind, and to walk through life again with strength and energy. I decided on an Ayurvedic therapy called Pancakarma and went in without any specific expectations.

To my great surprise, as a result of these versatile treatments, I returned home without the pain or impairment.

Exhilarated by this positive experience, I decided to integrate Ayurveda into my everyday life through nutrition, daily routine and massages, so that I could help myself if necessary. 

Searching for Naturopaths of Ayurveda Medicine in Lucerne I repeatedly came across the training courses offered by the Heilpraktikerschule Luzern.

After a while I followed my calling and decided to become a Naturopath of Ayurveda Medicine myself. Over the course  of my studies, I was able to accompany many patients whose wellbeing improved so significantly with Ayurveda that I pursued my goal with even more conviction. 

It is my great pleasure that after comprehensive and intensive studies I am now working as a certified Naturopath of Ayurveda Medicine since summer 2022, recognised by health insurances.
