"What's wrong with me?" - when diagnoses are not enough
An education forum for myoreflex- and other therapists curated by Dr. med. Kurt Mosetter. With Christl Brucher, Daniel Denzel (tbc), Kerstin Kussmaul (PhD) and Shaofan Zhu
"What's wrong with me?" - when diagnoses are not enough
Many therapists regularly face the challenge of working with people whose symptoms cannot be clearly classified according to a classic diagnostic scheme – and ask themselves: “What is actually going on here?” This forum offers a space to deepen sound knowledge, cultivate collegial exchange, and sharpen treatment approaches.
We invite Myoreflex and other interested therapists to explore these complex topics:
Psychoemotional and depressive clinical pictures
Chronic fatigue syndromes, metabolic or immune regulation disorders, post-infection syndromes (e.g., post-COVID, post-Epstein-Barr)
Diffuse, seemingly “inexplicable” pain phenomena in muscles, fascia, nerves, and the brain
Typical symptoms that are particularly challenging in everyday therapy—with a focus on resilience, the vagus nerve, and salutogenic approaches
This forum provides theoretical background and systemically reflected, practically applicable ideas for your daily practice.
Artis Umbria creates a relaxed, family atmosphere in the quiet expanse of Umbria. The surrounding nature provides peace and clarity, allowing us to concentrate on learning and living together. Accommodation and meals are provided on site and included in the price.
Maximum number of participants: 20
Start: October 16, 2026, 2 p.m., end: October 18, 2026, 6:30 p.m.
Additional overnight stays are possible by arrangement.

Kurt (born 1964), medical doctor and alternative practitioner, studied human medicine at the Albert-Ludwigs-University in Freiburg im Breisgau and specialized in the physics of the neuromuscular system and applied neurobiochemistry. He is the developer of Myoreflex therapy®, neuromuscular trauma therapy (the integrated KiD® movement program) and the Glycoplan® and, together with his brother, the founder of the Vesalius Training Institute. Kurt is the director of the Center for Interdisciplinary Therapies (ZiT) with locations in Constance and Gutach. More information at www.mosetter.de
Christl is an educator and worked with Günter Haffelder at the Institute for Communication and Brain Research in Stuttgart for 39 years.
In addition to developing the measurement method, her main area of work was conducting research projects on a wide range of topics and issues.
Since Günter Haffelder's death, she has continued this work in a team with his long-standing colleagues in the Neuroscience and Art e.V. association, which he founded for this purpose during his lifetime.
Her focus here is on documenting and publishing past research projects, presenting a wide variety of topics in lectures and at conferences, and organizing her own seminar days and training courses. The networking of many doctors and therapists in the Neuroscience and Art association constantly gives rise to new exciting research questions and projects.
Working together in these teams and meeting and exchanging ideas with people is important to her.

Kerstin is a dance researcher, teacher and mentor specializing in somatics and improvisation. Her artistic doctoral research at the University of Auckland, New Zealand explored myofascia in movement. Her most recent work, the matter of fascia, emerged from this research and can be viewed at www.fasciamatters.info. Prior to this she explored creative processes in contact improvisation using embodied cognition.
Kerstin leads the Embodied Myoreflex Practitioner training - in collaboration with Dr Mosetter (Konstanz) and ImPulsTanz – of which the second cycle begins at the end of 2024. Part of the training takes place at Artis Umbria, which she is building as an ecosomatic place for movement and ease (artisumbria.com). She founded IDOCDE with the associated symposium, which today operates as the Lace Symposium at ImPulsTanz. She is mentor for the ImPacT program at ImPulsTanz.
