Exhaustion & stress

Understanding causes and finding holi­stic solu­tions
Stress and exhaus­tion are complex condi­tions that arise from the inter­play of physio­lo­gical, psycho­lo­gical and envi­ron­mental factors. At our center, we work to iden­tify the under­lying causes and develop indi­vi­du­ally tail­ored, holi­stic approa­ches to promote health and well-​being.

SYMPTOMS

Exhaustion and tiredness

For pati­ents suffe­ring from persis­tent exhaus­tion, ever­yday life becomes a chall­enge. Our aim is to break through the perma­nent exhaus­tion and help pati­ents feel more vital and full of life again.

Sleep disorders

Sleep disor­ders often have a major impact on quality of life. The inabi­lity to get suffi­cient and, above all, restful sleep can lead to irri­ta­bi­lity, a subdued mood and reduced cogni­tive perfor­mance.

Concentration problems

Concentration problems are frus­t­ra­ting and lead to inse­cu­rity. We no longer feel confi­dent in our mental abili­ties. Difficulties in focu­sing cause addi­tional stress in our personal and profes­sional lives.

Approach

Observations

In our modern society, many factors contri­bute to an increase in stress, exhaus­tion and ulti­m­ately burnout. Work pres­sure, constant acces­si­bi­lity due to tech­no­logy, unhe­althy life­styles, social changes and finan­cial inse­cu­rity all put a strain on mental well-​being. High social expec­ta­tions and a lack of work-​life balance increase stress.

Due to its influence on various body systems such as the hormonal and immune systems and the meta­bo­lism, chronic stress can lead to perma­nent dysre­gu­la­tion in the body, which we often first perceive as exhaus­tion.

Forms of therapy

First, we carry out a detailed medical history and diagno­stics, inclu­ding iden­ti­fying stres­sors in the personal and profes­sional envi­ron­ment, analy­zing eating habits and asses­sing the nutrient neuro­trans­mitter and hormone balance and its impact on emotional well-​being. Our holi­stic therapy approa­ches are based on indi­vi­dual needs and include nutri­tional advice to opti­mize nutrient intake, stress manage­ment tech­ni­ques such as medi­ta­tion and rela­xa­tion tech­ni­ques, targeted hormone regu­la­tion and exer­cise therapy to increase physical fitness and reduce tension.

In addi­tion, we offer psycho­lo­gical support to help you cope with psycho­lo­gical stres­sors and promote mental resi­li­ence. Our center offers a compre­hen­sive, inte­gra­tive approach to help you over­come indi­vi­dual chal­lenges related to stress and fatigue and promote long-​term health.
„We break the cycle of stress and exhaus­tion and help the body and mind to heal in order to achieve a sustainable balance.“

GOOD TO KNOW

We look forward to welco­ming you to our clinic. We take enough time to under­stand your medical history. Based on your previous findings, the completed medical history form and our diagno­stics, we will create a custo­mized treat­ment plan for you. Please note that you should come with an empty stomach (water is permitted) to enable us to make an accu­rate diagnosis.

We attach great importance to cost trans­pa­rency and will inform you of the costs incurred before treat­ment begins. Please note that private health insu­rance poli­cies are very unli­kely to cover all services. In such cases, you will have to bear the costs yourself. We will be happy to answer any ques­tions you may have about insu­rance cover, co-​payments or payment options.

To make your appoint­ment with us as conve­nient as possible, we offer you the option of simply arran­ging your consul­ta­tion online. You can choose between appoint­ments of 30 or 60 minutes, depen­ding on your needs. Alternatively, you can also leave us a message by phone and we will get back to you imme­dia­tely to arrange your appoint­ment.

To ensure effec­tive commu­ni­ca­tion, we ask you to select an appoint­ment option online. Be it for a face-​to-​face appoint­ment in the prac­tice, a video consul­ta­tion or a tele­phone consul­ta­tion. Alternatively, you can also leave us a tele­phone message.

Please under­stand that e‑mail inqui­ries cannot be answered due to time cons­traints.

Please note that repeat prescrip­tion orders will be processed with suffi­cient lead time (14 days). For prescrip­tion requests, please send an e‑mail to: rezepte@zentrum-funktionelle-medizin.de

We are aware of our respon­si­bi­lity and devote the utmost atten­tion to your concerns. The path of func­tional medi­cine requires pati­ence and it takes expe­ri­ence to develop solu­tions that enable health in depth. In doing so, we conduct rese­arch and talk to other specia­lists and thera­pists until we have found a solu­tion.
