Dr. Anneleen Six is a rare bridge-builder between two medical worlds that are often kept apart. As both a practicing physician and a specialized medical acupuncturist, she has spent years exploring the same fundamental question: why do people become ill, and more importantly, what helps them stay healthy?

Driven by a deep fascination with the root causes of health and disease, Anneleen combines the diagnostic rigor of Western Medicine with the holistic wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Her work focuses not only on treating symptoms, but on understanding the underlying patterns that shape physical, emotional and mental wellbeing.

Based in Hasselt, she works with patients of all ages and has pursued extensive training in both Europe and Asia, with a particular interest in the classical Chinese traditions of Yuan Qi and Jing Fang. Her approach integrates lifestyle, nutrition, sleep, stress, emotions and energy, always viewing the patient as a unique individual rather than a collection of symptoms.

Beyond her clinical practice, Anneleen is a sought-after speaker on integrative medicine, prevention and healthy ageing. She is also co-founder of Muchin Lifestyle Medicine and co-author of the book Leven in je Element, which explores how Eastern wisdom and Western science can work together to help people live healthier, more balanced lives.

Her philosophy is simple yet powerful: health is not merely the absence of disease, but the ability to live in harmony with your body's natural rhythms. By bringing together the best of East and West, she invites people to move beyond symptom management and towards a deeper understanding of vitality, resilience and wellbeing.
