Service area

I treat exclusively on home visits, so you do not have to travel anywhere. I work around Landau in der Pfalz, along the Southern Wine Route and in the neighbouring district of Germersheim.

Where I travel regularly

  • Offenbach an der Queich
  • Landau in der Pfalz
  • Annweiler am Trifels
  • Bad Bergzabern
  • Edenkoben
  • Herxheim bei Landau
  • Germersheim
  • Bellheim
  • Rülzheim
  • Insheim
  • Essingen
  • Hochstadt (Pfalz)
  • Speyer
  • Neustadt an der Weinstraße
  • Kandel
  • Bornheim

I am based in Offenbach an der Queich and reach most of these towns in under 30 minutes by car. That is why I can usually offer an appointment within one to two weeks.

Four directions from Offenbach an der Queich

The area is not a circle drawn on a map – it has four directions that grew over time. That also explains why some towns lie further out than others and still belong to it.

  • The core area around Landau. Landau in der Pfalz, Essingen, Insheim, Hochstadt and Bornheim are right on the doorstep. Journeys here are shortest and appointments are the easiest to arrange at short notice.
  • West and south, into the Southern Wine Route. Annweiler am Trifels and Bad Bergzabern along with the villages in between – the longest drive in scenic terms, but a connected stretch that works well within a single day.
  • North along the Wine Route. Edenkoben and Neustadt an der Weinstraße. I travel there less often, which is why I particularly like to group appointments in this direction.
  • East into the Germersheim district. Herxheim bei Landau, Bellheim, Rülzheim, Germersheim and Kandel, and Speyer at the outer edge. Flat country and quick connections – which is why the area reaches further here than elsewhere.

Further afield – just ask

The following places are a little further out. Whether I can arrange an appointment depends on how it fits into my route. Just ask – I will tell you honestly whether it works.

Zeiskam · Lingenfeld · Knittelsheim · Schwegenheim · Rohrbach · Ilbesheim · Albersweiler · Maikammer

How I plan my routes

I do not criss-cross the Palatinate in a single day; I group appointments by direction. That has two consequences which affect you directly.

First, every treatment keeps the full time we agreed. When only a few minutes of driving lie between two appointments, I do not have to cut anything short to stay on schedule – one reason why I deliberately do not extend the area further.

Second, for places at the edge it depends on whether your appointment fits into an existing route. That is why they are listed as “on request” rather than as a firm commitment. If you have some flexibility on the day or time, there is almost always a solution.

Where I visit you

  • At home. The standard case – and therapeutically the most sensible place, because we practise exactly where you have to manage everyday life.
  • In a care home or senior residence. By arrangement with the facility, at a lower call-out fee.
  • In short-term care. Particularly after a hospital stay, that period is often decisive.

Common questions about the service area

Is there an extra charge for travel?

Yes, a home visit fee applies per appointment. It covers travel and travel time and does not depend on how far away you live. The exact amounts are listed on the costs page, so you know what a session costs in total before the first appointment.

Why do you work in exactly this area?

Because it lets me schedule appointments so that there is enough time for each treatment. A larger area would mainly mean more driving – at the expense of the appointments I can offer. If you live slightly outside it, do ask anyway: it can often be combined with an existing route.

What if I move home from short-term care?

Treatment can take place in either setting – I visit you in short-term or residential care just as I do later at home. The move is in fact a good moment for it: only at home does it become clear which tasks and routes are genuinely difficult, and that is exactly what we then work on.

Your town is not listed?

Call me anyway. If I cannot serve your area, I will tell you straight away – and, where possible, point you to someone closer to you.
