Do you feel that something is not quite right in your body right now?

Perhaps this feeling manifests itself as restlessness, pain, or simply a vague sense of unease. Maybe it's just a subtle hint—but your body is sending you a message.

Acupressure can be a gentle way to reconnect. Without pressure. Without feeling overwhelmed.

At my practice in Basel, I will guide you mindfully along this journey. Using a personalized 4-step approach based on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)—including qigong, acupressure, and Tuina massage— I will help you regain your balance through calmness, mindfulness, and a clear structure.

What is acupressure—and how does it work?

Acupressure is a method from Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that involves applying gentle, targeted pressure to specific points along the meridians (energy pathways).

The goal is to regulate the natural flow of energy (qi), release blockages, and harmonize the entire system. Unlike acupuncture, acupressure does not use needles at all—it relies exclusively on the hands.

Typical applications include:

  • general malaise and tension

  • emotional exhaustion or inner turmoil

  • Pain (acute or chronic)

  • Support during recovery periods

  • stress-related symptoms

Acupressure treatment on the back - deep relaxation in a calm atmosphere.
Gentle acupressure with open palms to harmonize the energy flow in the back area.
Acupressure with the forearm on the palm of the hand - for deep relaxation and energetic activation.
Targeted point treatment on the back of the hand - to regulate internal organs and Qi flow.
Strong, targeted pressure on the shoulders - to release muscular tension and relieve stress.
Flowing movement with rhythmic pressure - acupressure in harmony with the breath.
Mobilization technique on the hand - to loosen blockages in joints and meridians.

Effects & Benefits of Acupressure

What would your daily life be like if your body felt balanced and calm again?

When you feel comfortable in your body again—without that constant pulling, pressure, or discomfort.
When your nervous system calms down, you can think more clearly, wake up feeling more refreshed—and feel more at one with yourself again.

Acupressure gently guides you on this journey back to your natural rhythm. It helps you release tension, restore balance in your body, and deeply regulate yourself—physically, emotionally, and energetically.

Typical effects:

  • Relief from pain, tension, and chronic discomfort

  • Deep relaxation & regulation of the nervous system

  • Promoting inner stability and resilience

  • Improved body awareness & more energy in everyday life

  • Support during periods of exhaustion, stress, or recovery

  • Simple exercises for self-application – learn what your body really needs

Testimonials from people who have experienced my Tuina and acupressure treatments in Basel .

  • " I regularly go to Lae for acupressure massages and appreciate her professional yet attentive and empathetic manner. Laetitia specifically addresses my individual issues and adapts each treatment accordingly. After just a few months, my PMS symptoms were effectively alleviated and my skin problems visibly improved. I can therefore highly recommend treatment with Lae. Each treatment releases physical blockages and I feel deeply relaxed afterwards. I will continue to come for massages and thank Laetitia for her valuable support! "

    Helene T.

  • " Since my first visit to LAE, there have been positive changes that I never expected. Initially I came for severe back pain, but I found much more. Not only is my back showing improvement with each session, but I've seen progress in areas I wasn't looking to address directly: My energy is consistent throughout the day, I have less sugar cravings, and I can sleep deeply. Laetitia's therapy is not limited to symptom relief; it seeks to understand and heal from the root cause. If you are looking for real solutions, I can highly recommend her."

    Iván Z.

  • "Wow, a woman with both feet firmly on the ground, clear and radiant. She totally grounded me, released tension and brought my strength back to the tiles. I always enjoy going back to her. Thank you for the wonderful experience."

    Antje P.

  • "I regularly go to Laetitia for Tuina treatment and I love it! Laetitia has a very pleasant way of conducting the treatment, I feel very comfortable and can relax immediately. She was also able to help me with my complaints. I like the fact that she takes many different aspects into account, such as nutrition. I'm already looking forward to my next treatment!"

  • " Laetitia has the right energy, just made for it! I felt comfortable right from the start. I would particularly like to emphasize the positive feeling after the treatment, which lasted for a long time. Very pleasant. Thank you! "

    Samuel L.

  • " Laeticia is a caring and incredibly empathetic person. She always takes enough time to talk to you before the treatments. The massage itself is a mixture of a feel-good massage and pressing trigger points. This combination triggers a lot in the body and in the days that follow you can really feel how the body works. Thank you dear Laeti for always allowing me to go home deeply relaxed after your treatments:) "

    Jessica P.

  • "It was a great surprise to discover Tuina massage and it was a pure relaxation experience. I straightened up and really felt much straighter. With my feet firmly planted in the ground, I walked home. I felt like I had stepped into another world with a lot of lightness. Thank you so much, Laetitia, for introducing me to this massage. I'm already looking forward to experiencing this moment of happiness again."

    Jeannette

  • " Laetitia does a wonderful job. I had never heard of Tunia Massage before and found it incredibly relaxing and pleasant. After the treatment I felt like I was walking on air, I was absolutely mentally relaxed. Amazing! The tension in my neck, which has been bothering me for months, is much more bearable since the appointment and I sleep much better. I will definitely come back because it did me so much good. I would absolutely recommend it! "

    Anja R.

  • " I went to Laetitia for a session because I had been suffering from a sore throat for three weeks and my painful period was coming up (I suffer from endometriosis). After the 90 minute session my voice was much clearer and two days after the therapy my periods stopped and I had no sore throat or stomach pain. I thank her again and highly recommend her! She is very attentive, warm and has hands like fairy fingers."

    Anonymous

  • "I've been going to Laetitia's acupressure tuina massage regularly for a few months now. I hadn't heard of this method before and I have to admit that I was rather skeptical. But I was thrilled from the very first appointment! Laetitia is very professional and takes the time to respond to your individual needs. I can highly recommend her treatment for headaches and migraines, both of which have almost completely disappeared for me. The treatment had a relaxing and stress-relieving effect on me from the very first appointment. I would love to come back!"

    Sarah C.

  • "With Laetitia, I feel safe and in good hands. Even the empathetic initial consultation creates trust, the grounding exercise brings me fully into the moment, and your soothing massage has a deep and lasting effect. I can feel how good it all does me - physically and emotionally - I feel connected. I would love to come back and I'm already looking forward to our next appointment! 🤩"

    Daniel Siegenthaler

  • "I regularly come to Laeti for general relaxation after a sometimes very intense working day, to clear my head and sometimes also to relieve certain body tensions. Laeti's exceptionally empathetic, competent and situational approach never ceases to amaze me, so I always book the next session straight away. I can therefore recommend anyone to try acupressure with Laeti at any time!"

    Stephan Flückiger

  • "I have been seeing Laetitia for about 4 months and am very happy with the results of the treatment. I was struggling with general listlessness and lack of energy/motivation and was simply blocked. These things have improved exponentially and I will certainly continue treatment. I also feel incredibly comfortable and in good hands with Laetitia."

    Aurora D'Agostino

  • "Laetitia managed to ground me and focus on me within minutes with her calm charisma. The massage was very pleasant and I was deeply relaxed during and afterwards. I was able to sleep extremely well afterwards and the relaxation continued to have an effect for days afterwards. Can absolutely recommend the treatment 😊"

    Julia Tausch

  • "The Tuina massage treatment I received from Laetitia gives me a feeling of deep relaxation and soothing calm. I love the Qi Gong exercises at the beginning as well as the feeling of lightness immediately after the massage. Laetitia is a very positive person with a calm, infectious charisma. Together we developed a treatment plan to treat my pain and numbness in my forearms and tension in my upper back - I am convinced that this plan had a positive effect and my symptoms were significantly reduced. I am a regular client and enjoy the feeling of my body finding its balance again. Thank you, dear Laetitia, for your warmth, positivity, warmth and knowledge."
