Dénie Andreeva
Feldenkrais Method Therapist
ASCA & RME accredited
Passionate about movement from a young age, Dénie Andreeva’s professional career led her to discover the Feldenkrais Method. After obtaining her diploma as a professional pianist and driven by her desire to transmit, she joined the Conservatoire Populaire de Musique Danse et Théâtre de Genève to teach piano. It was in this context that she experimented with the Feldenkrais Method, which was presented during a continuing education course as a means of improving artistic performance, preventing the risk of injury and treating pain. These few hours of initiation were enough for her to feel the profound benefits of this practice on the body and the mind, to grasp its therapeutic scope and to decide to undertake the training that she will complete with the therapist course. She regularly deepens her skills on specific subjects such as – among others – sleep and motor development of the baby.
Considering the Feldenkrais Method and its principles based on movement, biomechanics, neuroplasticity and psychology as a true health education, she accompanies patients of all ages in a process of improvement, autonomy in health and self-awareness. Through group or individual sessions or themed workshops, each person accesses, enriches and strengthens their own resources.
Imbued with the holistic nature of the Feldenkrais Method, which takes into account the totality of the person, she feels in total adequacy with the vision of the MAZ Clinic and joined the team in November 2022.

Vanessa Novel
Hypnotherapist – ASCA member
Lymphatic drainage therapist
Driven by a lifelong passion for human psychology, emotions and energies, Vanessa Novel began her training in holistic well-being at the age of 18 with Reiki, alongside her studies in aesthetics (specializing in wellness, massage and spa). Over the years, she has enriched her expertise with ongoing training in massages, then in Lympho Energie ® drainage, a practice combining lymphatic drainage with Chinese energy.
From 2012, she broadened her field of expertise by training in Kinesiology, Hypnosis, Access Bars, RITMO (EMDR) and Maeusthesia (relevance psychotherapy). Keen to adapt to the evolving needs of her patients, she offers a personalized psycho-emotional and energetic support approach, using these different therapeutic tools to best meet their specific needs.
Strongly convinced of the importance of holistic care for each individual, Vanessa Novel joined the MAZ Clinic team in 2024, with whom she shares these values.
Vanessa is currently training in professional and life coaching, with a view to complementing her therapeutic accompaniment by putting resources and potential into action, with the aim of fostering autonomy, confidence and self-fulfilment.

The MAZ Clinic vision
Treating the cause
beyond the symptoms
We assess your health based on the principle of homeostasis, a self-regulating process by which biological systems maintain stability while adjusting to changing external conditions. Through homeostasis we can achieve the perfect harmony that we need to unleash our full potential.
The many physical, emotional and biochemical stresses that we encounter daily can alter this balance.
To overcome any homeostatic imbalance, we adopt a holistic approach to health which analyzes the body as a whole and treats ailments that are causing pain and discomfort to the body, restoring its innate ability to adapt and heal itself.
Beyond relieving your current pain, we encourage you to look inward, listen to yourself, and become fully aware of your body.

The three pillars of health
Our practice aims to relieve stress
and create harmony between the three determinants of health:
the structural, the biochemical and the emotional.
The structural
The structural pillar concerns everything that affects the skeleton: ligaments, muscles, nervous system, etc. Poor posture, trauma and falls are some of the most common problems that make a patient prone to subluxations and pain.
Our multidisciplinary team of chiropractors, osteopaths, physiotherapists and masseurs are here to help relieve physical distress caused by either injury or degenerative disease of the body.
The biochemical
The emotional
The story
of the MAZ Clinic
The MAZ Clinic opened its doors to patients for the first time in March 2020.
It was born from an idea, a dream, and the passion and perseverance of its founder who wanted to provide solutions to the pains and injuries that our bodies encounter throughout life.
Marc-Antoine Zurkirch has always had a particular attraction for sport in all its forms. As a child, he began to express his talent and determination through soccer, where he went on to join an Italian club.
However, his numerous sports-related injuries revealed to him the limits and consequences of isolated medical care.
It was his meeting with a chiropractor that brought out in him a fascination for the human body and its holistic approach.
From this moment, his vision to be a future doctor started to bloom.
Armed with his experience and guided by his passions, Marc-Antoine went on to study Chiropractic, graduating with a federal postgraduate degree in Bern in 2018. His discipline and passion for his profession would push Dr. Zurkirch to create the MAZ Clinic two years later, the fruit of an idea that has been germinating for several years in the eyes of its founder and which continues to blossom to bring you the highest standard of care.
