Your practitioner
I am Pascal Simon, a certified acupuncturist with over 15 years of experience in Traditional Chinese Medicine. I trained at the Latin American School of TCM in Santiago, Chile (Tuina in 2006, acupuncture in 2011), and have taught Qigong since 2022. I combine acupuncture, Tuina massage and Qigong in a whole-person approach. Every session begins with listening: understanding what you are going through comes first. Sessions are held in English, French or Spanish.
Qigong
Drawing the Bow: Focus and Balance in Qigong Practice
Qigong is a gentle, yet powerful practice that integrates physical postures, breathing techniques, and focused intention to enhance overall health and well-being. As a beginner-friendly form of exercise, it helps improve balance, flexibility, and vitality, while also reducing stress and promoting relaxation. With regular practice, many people feel more energized, more flexible and steadier, with a lasting sense of calm.
Embrace the Silence: The Stillness of Wuji Standing Meditation
Incorporating meditation into Qigong practice offers a unique pathway to mental clarity and emotional tranquility. By synchronizing slow movements with mindful breathing, practitioners develop a deeper connection between mind and body. This meditative aspect of Qigong fosters a profound sense of peace and centeredness, a gentle way to slow down, quiet the mind and feel more grounded.

Acupuncture
Equilibrium of the San Bao: A Journey Between Earth and Sky
In the philosophy of San Bao, or "Three Treasures," a harmonious balance is sought between the Essence (Jing), Energy (Qi), and Spirit (Shen), much like the delicate equilibrium observed in nature. As the moon graces the horizon above the majestic three summits, it symbolizes the interconnectedness of humanity with the earth below and the sky above. This tranquil scene serves as a gentle reminder of our place within the natural world, inspiring a deep appreciation and respect for the intricate tapestry that holds the universe together.
People often come to see me for stress and fatigue, sleep difficulties, muscle tension (back, neck, shoulders), digestive discomfort, or support through times of change, including alongside medical care during cancer treatment.

Frequently asked questions
Does it hurt?

Not at all. Sessions are held in English. The booking page is in French, but you can simply call or email me.
Is it covered by insurance?
Not by French state health insurance, but many mutuelles cover part of the cost. Check with yours.
