Dr. med. Heinz Lüscher

As a conventional physician I was initially sceptical about complementary medicine. But in 2007 everything changed, when I discovered the astonishing healing effects of grape seed extract — vital substance medicine has fascinated me ever since.

My path to vital substance medicine

My name is Dr. med. Heinz Lüscher. I am the head of the growing network around vitalstoffmedizin.ch. As a conventional physician, I did not take complementary medicine seriously for a long time.

In 2007, a friend asked me whether I could take over the representation of a Canadian natural product. I declined by return of post, but later read the documents anyway. To my amazement, I learned about the surprising healing effects of grape seed extract.

After that, my interest was ignited and I have been studying books, studies and essays on these topics almost daily ever since. Thus I became an autodidact in vital substance medicine, without neglecting conventional medicine. In April 2020, I merged my practice with the integrative health centre Wise Medicine in Winterthur.

My goals

Patient empowerment

As a patient, you can contribute decisively to your recovery if you are well informed about your options and can make self-determined decisions on that basis. That is why it is important to me to give you sufficient information, especially at the first consultation. A thorough anamnesis (a conversation to record your medical history) helps me do this.

Holistic treatment

Essentially, successful treatment is based on the following points:

  • A healthy diet and individual supplementation with the necessary micronutrients
  • Moderate exercise
  • Mental balance

I will be happy to advise you individually on these points and draw up a treatment plan together with you. The Wise Medicine practice offers a wide range of modern diagnostics and holistic treatment options for this.

Professional expertise

I combine conventional and complementary medicine in whatever way serves you best. We are an interdisciplinary team, we complement and support each other, and continuous further training is a matter of course for us.
