Barbara Stöckigt studied human medicine between 1991 and 1997 in Heidelberg and Berlin. Between 2001 and 2003 she worked as a medical doctor in a psychiatric hospital in Berlin. One of her interests is the extent of human consciousness, where it can lead to and how to deal with it. Travels to other continents and getting to know various cultures built up her interest in healing systems worldwide and therefore into medical anthropology. In her doctorate between 2005 and 2009 she combined these interests in the field of transcultural psychiatry leading her in her research to East Africa. Her thesis was upon “Spiritual Healing Concepts of Psychosis in East-Africa – a qualitative study”. Since 2010 she is working as a scientist and lecturer in the Institute for Social Medicine, Epidemiology and Health Economics, Project Division Complementary Medicine, at the Charité – Universitätsmedizin, Berlin, Germany. Since 2013 she is also a Shiatsu therapist.
