CONGRESS REVIEWS

Dear Tomas,
It was really a pleasure and a honour to be part of the Congress.
It’s hard to imagine how much work and efforts you and your team has done to make the Congress happen so smoothly and with such a famous supporting programme. Everyone there was so kind and attentive!
Your institute is also very special place, and I assume the „cave“ is unique in the world. I hope that I can enjoy it in the future again.
I hope you are also satisfied with the Congress and that it, and your work, has a positive impact on the future of TCIM.
Warm greetings and all the best!
Ralf

Dear Sir,
I arrived to India safely on 20th September. I am really thankful to you and the entire team of ITCIM. This was a turning point to my academic career. The hospitality and honour which I gained from you can not be forgotten. Your spirituality and humanity impressed me a lot. I have learned a lot from you and will try to be accordingly. The opportunity to interact with the learned speakers of many countries for the upliftment of people of the whole universe through TCIM will definitely be under your leadership. I will be always in touch with you to learn a lot more.
I express my sincere thanks to Dr. Bhasvati Bhattacharya for introducing me to such a noble person of the era. I am also thankful to Mr. Madan for sharing a room with me and discussing many issues of medical science. I would also express my sincere regards to Madam Ludmila for her lovely caring attitude for me like an elder sister.
I pray to God for your healthy and happy life. Your blessings are always the need of the poor sufferings. I apologize for my mistakes which I had made if any.
At last my sincere thanks and regard to you all.
Thanking You.
With Regards,
Prof. Dr. K. K. Pandey

Greetings,
it was a uniquely positive event for me.
Outstanding commitment of all - organizers and speakers. Significant outreach to the professional and general public. An accompanying program with great overlap!
A MUCH NEEDED EVENT AT THIS TIME!!!
Sometimes, all it takes to make big changes is a small group with a clear vision without ulterior motives.
Keep the unity in multiplicity and diversity, and mutual respect.
Many disciplines contribute to maintaining health! Continue sharing and strengthening each other in our joint endeavours.
OUR GOAL IS CLEAR, JUST PERSEVERE.
BE SEEN AND HEARD MORE - connecting to the media and politicians.
Everyone in their field should emphasize quality and own competence.
I AM SO GLAD TO BE PART OF SUCH A UNIQUE TEAM!
Hana Váňová


Isabelle Wachsmuth, MSc, MPH Isabelle Wachsmuth, MSc, MPH - Switzerland
Project Manager in World Health Organization, World Headquarters, Geneva

Dear Tomas,
I would like to thank you so deeply about the visit of your sanctuary of healing. What I have felt it is above any words.
I would like to share through my paintings what I have felt during our exceptional visit to your art temple of healing.
It is the return to unity immediately when I had entered in this art space you have created.
I felt as well immediately the fractal nature of our self-expression when you are reaching universal joy and peacefulness. I was privileged to feel early in my childhood at the age of 7 years old.
Thank you for these moments of eternity together... forever in my heart and my soul is singing this beauty you are offering to the world.
With my best and infinite vibes of universal and cosmic love.
Isabelle


Prof. Dr. rer. nat. Katharina C. Wirnitzer - Austria
Sports scientist and senior lecturer for sports science and sports didactics

Dear Tomas, dear WHC Presidium, dear Marketa, Ludmila, Martin – representing all you wonderful volunteers at WHC!
Heartily thanks to …
• this wonderful and top-level conference with all-over high-science or high-experience talks that will help us guide the way
• your wonderful, attentive and supportive team of volunteers, it was a pleasure to meet “old” friends and make new ones, to meet your daughter and wife, to meet Marketa and her daughter Magdalena, Ludmila, Martin and more – their kindness and love made us feel like returning to our own family/home, indeed
• the two-fold support of my PhD candidates with this kind of Young Researcher Award – it really helps them with motivation and cope a bit for their cost, money is always little when one is studying 😊
• setting up a Memorandum of Understanding, looking forward to your final draft on that I could participate with input and share some thoughts with Bashwati, Amarjeet and Isabella
I was so touched with tears of hope in my eyes especially due to some Sunday talks, including yours! So I could return loaded with extra energy to my business as usual.
Pls convey my deep thanks and congratulations also to the Presidium members, I enjoyed much talking to most/some of them, although it was not enough time to connect with all – I hope to be able next time in 2025.
All the very best,
With love, Katharina

At the World Health Congress, I had the opportunity to present the method of Rebirthing- Satori breathing, which is a solution for our time's acute and chronic stress. I am delighted with the perfect organization and grateful for all the exciting meetings, including a personal meeting with Tomas. I thank my wife for her elegant accompaniment.

MUDr. Ludmila Bendová - Czech Republic
Doctor, lecturer and founder of systematic education of therapists in traditional Chinese medicine

Dear Mr. Pfeiffer,
thank you so much for such appreciation - I rather regret that I didn't also contribute a presentation - but we had a lecturer from Israel here at the same time, and somehow, my space-time got condensed - in any case, you are a miracle!

Maria Leoni Georgopoulou, Greece

MUDr. Věra Kleplová - Czech Republic
Specialist in physiotherapy, balneology and medical rehabilitation

Good evening,
congratulations on the excellent organization, environment, and willingness of everyone at the World Health Congress. I was surprised that there were also lectures on autism and cerebral palsy. These are topics of "classical" medicine. It might have been good if the eminent "classics" had come to listen.
I'd be interested in a bell concert. Somehow, I can't find it.
All the best in the days to come,
MUDr. Věra Kleplová

Respected professor Tomáš & ITCIM team,
a very grateful thanks to all of you.
But special heartfelt thanks to professor Tomáš. It was a beautiful congress so well organised in every way. Felt the Prague hospitality in such a unique way... felt at home. The whole campus was live with old memories & new history. The Town hall visit...the cruise all added wonder and joy. Have been very pleased to be in the Congress with a heavy heart leaving Prague...such a memorable city.
Respects and regards,

MUDr. Jitka Vedralová, Czech Republic

Dear Mr. Pfeiffer, Dear Organizers,
The pleasure was all mine; I must thank you very much for the opportunity to participate online in such a spectacular event as your Congress!
Besides the undeniable and significant expertise, I was especially impressed by the heartwarming attitude of all the speakers; they were amazing ... Their 15 minutes were undoubtedly gallows and stressful, but they made the Congress flow in quick succession and were very lively and entertaining, although I could have listened to each of them two times longer at least:) I spent a complete Sunday with your broadcast :)
I would be delighted if you could keep me informed of similar interesting activities by your institution, and thank you for the recording; I will definitely get back to it. I have already recommended it to my circle of friends. I am involved in Chinese medicine and am considering practicing it professionally; hence, I take the liberty to add my resounding YES to your efforts to bring Western and Eastern medicine together.
Wishing you every success,
Jitka Vedralová


Mgr. Dana Sofie Fabíková, Czech Republic

I want to thank you for an excellent Congress. I had the privilege to be there in person, and I was impressed by everything that was said there; fantastic ideas, interesting personalities, great refreshments, and everyone was nice. Your presentation on Biotronics was unique...
Thank you for your patience and kindness. It must have been incredibly challenging to organize, and the final slide that mapped all the action at the Congress absolutely moved me, not to mention the steamboat.
Hence, my heartfelt thanks to you and the whole team, and I wish you all the best and room for regeneration.
Dana Sofie Fabíková


Thank you for an exceptional and fulfilling experience associated with the 3rd World Health Congress. I participated as an online listener (I couldn't take my eyes off the screen both days), and I would like to thank you for everything. For the energy you put into the project, the excellent organization, and the love with which you guide people.
Thank you so very much.
Renáta Chlupáčová


Greetings,
Thank you for the opportunity to watch the Congress online. I consider what you all managed to create together a miracle. The presentations, the people, and the whole atmosphere were excellent. I felt like I was in another world while watching, making me feel physically and mentally stronger. Thank you! Wishing you all the best.
Wieserová


The pleasure was ours,
wonderful IT was. Thank you!
And you get some rest!!!
With Love and Gratitude
