Our Story

In 2013, Hugh Quennec, at the time president of several professional sports teams in Switzerland, was introduced to a holistic approach to human performance and health. Holistic in evaluating humans as physical, intellectual, social, emotional and spiritual beings and holistic in a variety of disciplines to assess and develop all of these areas.

The disciplines included traditional Chinese medicine, energetic medicine, herbal medicine, nutrition, gut biome, epigenetics, and psychology, to which his curiosity led him to discover functional optometry and neuroscience among
others. Together these help identify root causes of performance and health challenges as well as opportunities for personal and professional development in areas not commonly assessed and acted on. He witnessed the benefits of a holistic approach on the highest performing athletes in the world as well as with himself and his family.

Helvetia Human Performance Group was founded to provide holistic products and services and help inform and educate people on the many tools that are available to motivated people seeking to be the best possible version of themselves, regardless of their starting point.
