Practice & therapist | Axel Siegmann
Overcoming pain
The finest moment in my work is when people feel at home in their bodies again — breathing more easily, moving more freely, finding new energy. That is what I work for, every day.
Health — and a love of sport — have been constants throughout my life. Over more than 30 years, curiosity has led me from university through extensive training and ongoing education to my own practice in Berlin.
My foremost aim is to find the best route to greater health, vitality and freedom of movement.
As a chiropractor and Heilpraktiker (state-licensed alternative practitioner in Germany), I support my patients with individually tailored methods to help them live fully: free from pain, energised and mindful.
Whether you are seeking acute relief or choosing to place your health at the centre, I invite you to treat your appointment as a conscious time out — a restorative pause that brings ease, courage and clarity. I am here for you.

Your concerns, clearly addressed
Here you’ll find the most common areas I treat.
Cervical spine / atlas correction
Gentle mobilisation of the upper cervical vertebrae with precise atlas alignment — easing head–neck alignment and restoring freer movement.
Headaches / migraine
Targets tension in the neck, jaw and shoulders; releases trigger points and supports autonomic regulation. Acupuncture may be added where appropriate.

Jaw joint pain (TMJ/TMD)
Release tension in the jaw and neck muscles, gentle TMJ mobilisation, taping, and simple everyday relief routines.

Mobilise the shoulder joint and scapula, address the rotator cuff and fascia, and make posture and movement more efficient.
Spinal blockages

SI joint (sacroiliac) dysfunction
Realign the pelvis, mobilise the SI joint, and specifically activate gluteal and core muscles. Result: greater stability when standing and walking.

Lumbago (acute low back pain)

Micronutrient consultation & diagnostics
Your body tells you what it needs
Your cells store how you’re doing. Your body communicates constantly – we simply need to listen.
Using non-invasive methods such as the VitaCellScan, we can read indicators of nutrient requirements and potential burdens (e.g. heavy metals) from your own cells – quickly, painlessly and without a blood test. This creates a clear picture: What’s missing? What’s excessive? What does your body need now?
On this basis, we develop a concrete plan to replenish cellular stores: practical nutrition guidance, sensible supplementation, and simple routines that fit your day-to-day life.
If you’re interested in an assessment, feel free to ask about a micronutrient consultation.

Questions & answers
Good to know
Recurring questions about process, costs or methods are explained here in a concise format.
Do I need a referral from my doctor?
No referral is required to book an appointment at Chiropraktik Siegmann. This is a private practice for self-paying clients; those with private or supplementary insurance may be eligible for reimbursement depending on their policy.
Is there a minimum age?
Yes. Children aged 10 and above are warmly welcome in my practice.
How much does a treatment cost?
Fees are based on your individual treatment plan and are charged according to the German fee schedule for Heilpraktiker.
Fees:
Chiropractic (Initial appointment): incl. medical history, examination & treatment: €120–150 (approx. 30–45 mins)
Chiropractic (Follow-up appointment): chiropractic only: €80 (approx. 15-20 mins)
Chiropractic (intensive): extended manual pain therapy: €180 (60 mins)
Depending on your needs, you can book a chiropractic appointment with or without extended pain therapy (Chiropractic Intensive).
Payment: cash or card on site.
How do I pay for my treatment?
You can pay in cash or by card at the practice. Please note: card payments incur a small processing fee.
Will my health insurer cover the treatment?
Private health insurers or supplementary insurance may reimburse costs in part or in full, depending on your tariff. Statutory insurance usually does not cover Heilpraktiker services. Please check directly with your insurer in advance. A detailed invoice (per the Heilpraktiker fee schedule) can be provided for reimbursement claims.
Is Chiropraktik Siegmann accessible (step-free)?
Unfortunately, the practice is not step-free. It is located on the third floor of a period building without a lift. If you are unable to come to the practice, home visits can be arranged by appointment – please get in touch.
How long does a treatment/session take?
Depending on your needs and goals, sessions last 30 minutes or 60 minutes.
How many treatments are usually needed?
It varies by case, but many people see good to very good results with 3 to 6 sessions. After the first appointment you’ll receive a clear recommendation on frequency and spacing (often weekly at first, then at longer intervals).
Is chiropractic a safe treatment method?
Yes – when carried out by qualified practitioners, chiropractic care is generally considered safe. At Axel Siegmann’s practice, every session is preceded by a careful case history and functional checks; possible contraindications are ruled out. Treatment is gentle and clearly explained; short-lived, muscle-soreness-like reactions can occasionally occur. If findings are unclear or risk factors are present, treatment is not performed and medical clarification is recommended – for maximum safety.
Can ligaments be “stretched out” by chiropractic treatment?
When performed correctly: no.
Chiropractic impulses are brief, precise and dosed. They target joint play and neuromuscular regulation – not prolonged stretching of ligaments. The audible “crack” is usually a gas bubble in the joint (cavitation), not over-stretching.
Good to know
- Every session begins with case history and functional checks; contraindications are ruled out.
- With existing instability/hypermobility or an acute ligament injury, manipulation is not performed; gentler options and stabilisation exercises are used instead.
- Over time, the combination of manual therapy plus targeted training tends to increase stability, not weaken ligaments.
In short: In qualified hands, chiropractic care protects and supports healthy joint mechanics rather than “stretching” ligaments.
What does the ‘cracking’ sound mean – is it dangerous?
The loud crack you may hear during an adjustment is usually a gas bubble releasing in the joint (cavitation). It is generally harmless and not bones or ligaments rubbing.
What should I wear to my appointment?
Please wear comfortable, flexible clothing that allows you to move easily. Kindly remove jewellery and watches before treatment.
Are emergency appointments available at weekends?
Yes. I’m available for urgent cases including weekends. Please call my mobile directly on +49 (0)173 4999 490. If severe pain limits your mobility, a home visit can be arranged by appointment.
