HEALING
Chinese Medicine & Holistic Therapies in Berlin-Mitte
Welcome to my clinic!
Here, I offer Chinese medicine, energy work, and holistic therapies to support your health, vitality, and inner balance. People come to me for acute issues, chronic challenges, personal growth or in transition. I work individually, holistically, and mindfully, creating a space where body, mind and soul can harmonize and emotions can regulate.
Chinese Medicine & Acupuncture
Chinese medicine forms the foundation of my work, guided by Daoist philosophy and inner cultivation. I work with classical acupuncture as well as non-invasive techniques, such as Teishin and acupressure stimulation, complemented by Gua Sha, cupping, and moxibustion, to support the natural flow of energy on a physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual level.
A focus is on enhancing your vitality so that your system can regenerate and maintain balance. Treatments help you navigate your situation, expand your possibilities, and strengthen your inner resilience.

Acute pain

Chronic or complex conditions

Musculoskeletal complaints

Hormonal imbalances and fertility support

Digestive issues and allergies

Desire for increased vitality and inner balance
Qi Emission – In Becoming What Is Needed
Qi emission is a presence rooted in Qigong and Neidan traditions, cultivated over years of personal practice. Following the principles of the 8 Qi (八气), I align intuitively with the client’s energetic presence, allowing qi to naturally flow and express the qualities needed. Qi flows in a dynamic yin-yang balance, moving between active and receptive qualities as needed.
The 8 Qi (八气) – Guiding Principles
-
开 kāi - open / 合 hé - close – release blockages, stabilize and gather qi
-
聚 jù - gather / 散 sàn - disperse – concentrate qi, spread qi to release tension
-
升 shēng - raise / 降 jiàng - lower – lift qi for clarity and presence, ground and calm
-
出 chū - emanate / 入 rù - enter – direct qi outward, restore balance to the center
This treatment can help you to:
-
Release deep physical and emotional tension
-
Restore balance and harmony in your energy
-
Cultivate clarity, presence, and centeredness
-
Support regeneration, vitality, and overall well-being
Intuitive Flow
Intuitive Flow is a somatic, process-oriented approach that integrates body, breath, energy, and awareness. The work follows your inner impulses and unfolds as a personally guided process, weaving conversation, posture, subtle movement, and systemic awareness as they arise.
You are actively involved in shaping your experience, creating space for self-expression, embodied insight, and attunement, allowing personal and relational themes to emerge and integrate naturally.
Intuitive Flow can support you if you wish to:
-
Gain inner clarity and emotional integration
-
Work through old patterns or challenging experiences
-
Explore and untangle family or relational dynamics
-
See the next steps on your personal path
-
Strengthen vitality and self-reliance
-
Experience holistic development – physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual

Testimonials:
I’ve been seeing Franz for treatments for many years. His distinct, well-educated and highly skilled practice of traditional Chinese medicine is applied with a natural ease, precision and lightness, resulting in world class treatments of superb quality. His broad and complex training allows him to approach health issues holistically and to create a space for fundamental change. On top of this, he has a kind, calm and open-hearted personality and genuinely cares for the health and balance of his clients. Over the years, he has become a true pillar of my well-being.
I am deeply impressed by the results of my therapeutic sessions with Franz Kratochwil. This year, I decided to engage in deeper work, because each session reveals a new layer of my understanding of myself and my circumstances, allowing me to take the next step toward my mental, physical, and material health. Franz's exceptional professionalism is impressive; his methods are relaxed and pleasant, allowing me to penetrate layers of consciousness that are difficult to reach on my own. Deep energy work and precise knowledge of Chinese medicine allow me to enhance the effects and see clear results in real life. I recommend him to everyone.
You go through life doing your best, and sometimes you land in some kind of horribly untenable spot.
Franz has fished me out of a few of them over the last years. He is the sweetest wizard I have met and a true witness to healing. I am deeply grateful.
Franz is incredibly empathetic, calm, and deeply present in his work with me. I especially appreciate how thorough he is and how he is able to work through even very challenging topics on all levels, helping the body return to a state of healing. After a session with Franz, I feel strengthened, much clearer in my thoughts and emotions, and far more at ease in my body. His sense of humor, lightness, and attentive listening make me feel safe and truly well cared for.
