Gabriel Schüers - medical Massage Therapist

Growing up in a family of bodyworkers and therapists, I have always been fascinated by the complexity of the human body and its energy system. This curiosity led me on a long journey to explore the body’s potential and its self-healing abilities.

In 2006, I completed my training as a medical and therapeutic massage therapist and then spent several years gaining experience in different fields: first in a rehabilitation center, later in a spa, before eventually starting my own practice. In the following years, I traveled extensively abroad to study with various teachers and schools, deepening my knowledge of bodywork. I was particularly moved by the art of Thai massage, craniosacral and visceral osteopathy, Chi Nei Tsang (Chinese organ massage), yoga therapy, and breathwork.

As an open and curious person, I value respectful and meaningful exchange with my clients. I accompany them on their journey toward optimal health and well-being, supporting them in achieving lasting change.

Why choose holistic medical massage?

The spirit of our time

Due to demanding lifestyles, constant connectivity, and busy schedules, more and more people are experiencing chronic stress, tension, and physical discomfort. This highlights the growing need for holistic bodywork that goes beyond treating the physical body to truly address all needs in today’s world.

Holistic medical massage stands for:

Personalized bodywork

Tailored bodywork is the key to effective treatment. It allows us to address your needs specifically, taking into account your medical history, individual circumstances, and health goals.

Experience that makes a difference

Whether you are seeking treatment to enhance your well-being, recovering from a recent injury, or looking to alleviate chronic pain, my nearly 20 years of experience in bodywork and health allow me to support your individual needs in the best possible way.

Training body awareness

Our body awareness is like a language—the ability to tune into sensations and perceptions. This strengthens everyday resilience, enhances emotional regulation, and supports self-healing. My role is to help you cultivate this language.

More than just a quick fix

My goal is not only to help you relieve stress and tension but also to guide you on your path toward vitality, lightness, and joy. Together, we work to create lasting and positive changes in your body.

Slowing down the system

My work not only helps relieve physical tension but also stimulates your autonomic nervous system. This can lead to an increased sense of balance, well-being, and inner calm.

Ancient knowledge meets modern techniques

In my work, I combine knowledge from various cultures and traditions, integrating medical massage, holistic healing methods, and energetic approaches.

What my clients have experienced

David A.

Congratulations if you’ve made it this far. I had been searching for someone like Gabriel for years—a therapist who sees the whole picture. Someone who doesn’t need many words, asks the right questions, listens with their hands, and notices even the smallest details. With his wide range of talents and years of trained methods, every single session with Gabriel is a gift and perfect for even the most ordinary day. In no time, Gabriel has become the best friend my body could have. My life has visibly improved. Unreservedly recommended!

Brandy B.

Gabriel is an outstanding massage therapist with a truly impressive range of techniques (e.g., Thai massage, craniosacral, etc.). He listens attentively to the body and quickly adapts to what you need in the moment. As a practitioner, he is incredibly empathetic and creates a safe space for whatever may arise. I always felt very well cared for in each session, and my body felt noticeably better afterward. I can only praise him highly—truly a gem in Zurich.

Laura H.

After my first session with Gabriel, I was amazed at the changes in my body. I had grown accustomed to constant headaches and weekend discomfort that had almost become the norm, often forcing me to take sick days. But after just a few sessions, I began to feel significant improvements. The treatments gave me the sense that my entire structure was being cared for, and each massage brought more relief. Soon, my headaches diminished, my body felt lighter, and I regained the freedom to enjoy my hobbies again. I can only recommend experiencing Gabriel’s approach to bodywork—it is truly unique.

Gabriel is an outstanding massage therapist with exceptional skill and extensive experience. If you’re looking for someone who blends various techniques and considers not only the body but also the soul, you’ve come to the right place. His intuitive approach, combined with solid expertise, creates a truly holistic healing experience. Whether it’s physical tension, emotional stress, or simply the desire for more grounding—you feel safe and well cared for with Gabriel.

Kerstin M.

I have been receiving treatments from Gabriel for about six months. His approach to bodywork is truly a transformative journey that has deeply moved me. In his massages, he creates a space where I feel safe. His exceptional sensitivity to individual needs allows me to connect with my innermost feelings. Through targeted breathing exercises and specifically applied manual therapy, we were able to release both physical blockages and emotional burdens that I had carried for years. Each session was different, yet always liberating and filled with new sensations. The therapy has helped me become more grounded, feel better connected, and find greater ease in everyday life. I can highly recommend his work to anyone seeking high-quality bodywork and deep relaxation.

Jack Z.

Absolutely amazing experience—I can warmly recommend Gabriel! He is not only an outstanding massage therapist but also ensures from the very beginning that you feel comfortable and well cared for. He is highly attentive, works with great sensitivity, and tailors the treatment precisely to individual needs. His “magical hands” have truly helped me with my back issues—I will definitely book again!

Regular G.

Gabriel draws from a vast range of methods and experience to offer his clients exactly the right treatment techniques, based on what they share when they arrive and the needs they express. He works in a highly sensitive, warm, present, attentive, and extremely professional manner, focused yet relaxed, in dialogue with his clients. I am fascinated by all that happens in my body during the massage and equally impressed by the long-term effects. I leave the practice feeling grounded, aligned, encouraged, and relaxed—and I still feel the same way the next day. Thank you so much, dear Gabriel!

Darina S.

Since I began receiving regular treatments from Gabriel, I have experienced significant changes. I feel more alive overall, sleep better, handle life’s challenges with greater ease, and have a newfound clarity in problem-solving. Gabriel has a special gift for being fully present with his clients. I am filled with gratitude—he has helped me regain what I had lost some time ago. Thank you so much.
