My name is Nancy Legato, and I've practiced Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) since 2007 - first in the US, and now (after a pause in order to be recognized as a Heilpraktikerin) here in Bayreuth. Ever since I started to study TCM, I've had one foot in each of two worlds: 

• The classical world of TCM, with its understanding of the human body as an ecosystem, with its own seasons, landscapes, and dynamic interrelationships; and
• The modern world of integrative TCM, which interfaces with western medicine so I can work my patients' western care providers to optimize their healthcare outcomes.

It is a joy for me to be a part of my patients' healthcare teams, applying a holisitic medical tradition and accompanying my patients on their own heathcare journey. My aim is to be a consultant for my patients, understanding their own health goals; offering them tools from the Chinese tradition such as Acupuncture, Herbal Therapy, Chinese Dietetics; integrating classical Chinese medicine knowledge with modern evidence-informed practices; and coordinating as appropriate with my patients' western medical care providers.

I look forward to accompanying you on your own healing journey!
