Dr. Kristina Gruber – Allgemeinmedizin und TCM

About Dr. Kristina Gruber – Allgemeinmedizin und TCM

Dr. Kristina Gruber is a specialist in general and family medicine and runs a private practice (Wahlarztordination) at Wassergasse 18 in Baden's pedestrian zone. Dr. Gruber combines conventional medical examination with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and decides case by case whether acupuncture, herbal therapy or dietary recommendations are suitable.

Treatments

• Acupuncture: fine needles at body and ear points, which stay in place for about 20 minutes
• Laser acupuncture with a soft laser, painless and intended for children and anyone who is afraid of needles
• Cosmetic acupuncture to strengthen and tighten the skin
• Chinese herbal therapy and nutritional medicine
• Cholesterol test directly in the practice

What TCM is used for

The practice's list ranges from allergies, asthma, headaches and migraine through musculoskeletal pain, infections and gastrointestinal and ENT complaints to menstrual disorders, the wish to have children, birth preparation from the 36th week of pregnancy, menopausal complaints, sleep disorders and quitting nicotine and alcohol.

Private doctor: what this means for you

• Fees: You pay first yourself; the health insurance usually reimburses 80 per cent of what it would pay a contracted doctor for the same service. Private supplementary insurance for outpatient treatment can cover the rest.
• Appointments: on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays by arrangement by phone, planned so that as far as possible nobody has to wait

Getting there

From Baden station it is about a six-minute walk. If you come by car, you can park in the Bahngasse short-stay parking zone, for example.
