Naturarztpraxis Ehrsam Philipp (Bubendorf)

A warm welcome!

My name is Philipp Ehrsam. I am a cantonally licensed naturopath for Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) with more than 20 years of practical experience and specialized in gynecology and fertility therapy.

I am happy to advise and treat you on the following topics, among others:

Desire to have children

**The treatment options for an involuntarily childless couple with TCM range from supporting a natural pregnancy and birth to accompanying artificial reproduction techniques.

The likelihood of pregnancy increases when classical reproductive medicine and specialized TCM therapies are combined. In addition to interdisciplinary cooperation, respectful interaction and clear, understandable communication are also prerequisites for the success and well-being of the couple.
