About Ursula Abel Merz
Originally from the United States, I completed my TCM and psychosomatic education in Denver, Colorado. In 2003 I moved to Germany and worked in a Naturopath practice which combined eastern and western modalities and treated many different cases in combination with western medicine. A truly fantastic and educational experience. 12 years ago when I moved to Ennetbürgen, Switzerland I was required to complete a 3-year program in western medicine at the Heilpraktikerschule in Luzern.
​
I have intermittently been in private practice since 2002. Most recently I have been recognized by the Swiss Red Cross as a Naturopathic practitioner with Advanced Federal Diploma of Professional Education and Training in discipline Traditional Chinese Medicine.
​
Being outside and enjoying the mountains and lakes with my family fulfil me while yoga, meditation and music balance me.
