Our survi­val depends on how well a barrier func­tions, as well as how effec­tively the system can handle “foreign” enti­ties. Some­ti­mes, there is an “over­drive” of the immune system, which then reacts not only against foreign subs­tances but also against the body’s own tissues. The result is chro­nic dise­a­ses asso­cia­ted with signi­fi­cant suffe­ring and lifel­ong medi­ca­tion in the form of corti­sone or simi­lar substances. 

Among the 80 to 100 known auto­im­mune dise­a­ses with diffe­rent symptoms, issues in the intesti­nal tract are predo­mi­nant. Diagno­sti­cally, we can deter­mine speci­fic labo­ra­tory para­me­ters, analyse your intesti­nal health and dietary habits and offer valuable support based on the results. 

The aim of func­tional medi­cine is to find the causes, restore immu­no­lo­gi­cal balance and increase well-being.

Reco­g­nis­ing and successfully trea­ting allergies
Aller­gies are the result of a tole­rance disor­der in our immune system. The ability to distin­gu­ish between self and non-self requi­res a stable balance between attack and non-reac­­tion. When this balance is disrupted, it leads to an over­re­ac­tion and the deve­lo­p­ment of an allergy. The skin and the gut often react first to certain subs­tances that may be present in foods or perso­nal care products. Howe­ver, other organ systems can also be affec­ted, poten­ti­ally trig­ge­ring an auto­im­mune dise­ase. Aller­gies can also lead to a perma­nent reduc­tion in quality of life. We inves­ti­gate the causes and trig­gers using scien­ti­fic methods and help you find your perso­nal path out of aller­gies and restore your immune balance.
