HOW IT ALL BEGAN...

The infirmary in Momella... (click to read more)

...the centerpiece of Africa Amini Alama, was opened in May 2010. It was intended to serve the Maasai and Meru from the surrounding area, a catchment area of over 8,000 people Over 20,000 patients were treated each year. They received comprehensive medical care. In addition to the two Austrian doctors Christine Wallner and Cornelia Wallner-Frisee, the infirmary was run by a team of African doctors. Even afer becoming a health center, thanks to the wide range of services and the support of the local authorities, many patients came from far and wide to receive not only conventional medical examinations and care, but above all the treatments that we offer at the naturopathic center, which was officially registered in 2014. Afer the legal agreements expired, the hospital was handed over to the state in 2020. In addition to the HIV and tuberculosis outpatient clinic, this is now particularly important for acute care in emergencies and for the care of mothers giving birth. We continue to support women with free mother and child packages.

...combines conventional medical screening and diagnostics with naturopathic therapies. The clinic consists of a laboratory, an ultrasound unit, a gynecology unit, an ophthalmology unit, a wound care unit and a dental unit. We care for people seeking help not only from the immediate vicinity, but also from remote areas. Medical education and training seminars in the clinic, in schools and in the village communities create health awareness among people - young and old. Afer conventional medical clarification, African herbal medicine, homeopathy, vital field therapy, scenar, acupuncture, medical massages, as well as specially prepared mixtures and remedies have an equal place in the naturopathic clinic. If necessary, therapeutic-healing interventions are used to address the deeper causes of the illness. Thanks to physiotherapy, pain patients in particular receive support and help. This integrative type of treatment is widely accepted by the local population. We obtain local medicinal plants from our permaculture project for the treatment of our patients and create awareness for the pesticide-free cultivation of food.
