Integrative Medicine Using the Examples of: The Hospital for Naturopathy, Munich And LIMed SUMMARY The most important principle of integrative medicine is the combination of conventional medicine and complementary medicine into a meaningful overall concept. The goal is to find the best individual therapy for the patients and to reduce side effects as much as possible. The decisive factor here is also explicitly the patients, who should be enabled to actively and responsibly participate in decision-making about an overall medical concept for their treatment. This [...]

Pathways to the Future of Energy Medicine TFIM Conference Summary March 2023 Dear Colleagues and Friends, Were you there? Did you take in the Forum for Integrative Medicine (TFIM) online conference in the first weekend of March?

February 2023 Following what has been a long and rather dark winter for me personally, I finally found the courage to reach out to a colleague for help in recovering. I guess we must always remember the old saw about “he who has himself for a physician, has a fool for a physician” and look outside of our own knowledge and expertise when healing seems difficult or ineffective. In spite of my long weeks of RSV, Covid, bronchitis, depression and unexpectedly deep grief for the recent loss of my [...]

Ozone Therapy for the Treatment of Post-Covid Syndrome Abstract Post-covid Syndrome is a complex disease, but it can be successfully treated by an integrated treatment approach with a combined application of individual orthomolecular substances. A clarification of the background symptoms and the need for integrative treatment at the earliest possible time is important. In the case of Epstein-Barr virus, similar courses are known without leading to corresponding media fear-mongering representations. Within the framework of a multimodal treatment approach supported by individual laboratory diagnostics, ozone therapy [...]

Causes Speak for the Therapeutic Use of Antioxidants Abstract Hyperinflammation and oxidative stress play an important pathophysiological role not only in acute Covid-19 disease, but also in Long-Covid. In Covid-19 Vitamin C deficiency has been demonstrated and the benefit of supportive Vitamin C infusions has already been investigated. In Long-Covid excessive inflammation and reactive oxygen compounds are also co-triggers for fibrosis, thrombosis, immune dysregulation (autoimmune phenomena and viral persistence), fatigue, cognitive impairment and disturbances of the autonomic nervous system. The benefits of Vitamin C infusions [...]

An Introductory Commentary Dear Colleagues and Readers, Barely three years have passed since we first heard of a new virus (with the name SARS-CoV-2) and from its consequences somewhere in China people were seriously ill and in some instances died. At that time, hardly anyone here in Germany and Europe thought too much about it. Above all no one at that time would have believed what happened worldwide a few months later: The entire public life ground to a halt. As unprepared as our health care system was, the [...]

Abstract At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, the acute infection was the focus of interest, but since then the perspective has changed. After the infection, impairments may persist in those affected, at both the physical as well as the mental level – the so-called “Long-Covid Syndrome” or “Post-Covid Syndrome”. The healthcare system is doing research on causes and treatment options. In practice it has been shown that previously well-established naturopathic procedures make a positive contribution to the therapy of patients with Long-Covid. Especially the combination of orthodox medicine [...]

Interim Results of the Ongoing Long-/Post-Covid Study From the Hospital for Naturopathic Medicine in Munich. Abstract In December 2021, we started an in-house observational study at the Krankenhaus für Naturheilweisen (Clinic for Internal Medicine, Naturopathy and Homeopathy) on the topic of “Effectiveness of our Naturopathic Complex Treatment for Long-/Post-Covid Syndrome”. While the first, initially small numbers of patients with Long-/Post-Covid came to us in the second half of 2020, these patients developed into one of our largest patient groups during 2021, in some cases with [...]

Basic Countermeasures, Part II In the last issue of Raum&Zeit Florian Schilling explained why the C-vaccines so dramatically weaken the immune system based on various scientific findings. In the meantime fortunately he can already look back on some therapeutic experience with these disease incidents and introduces his “first aid” package here. Complications that can appear in a variety of ways frequently occur because of the Corona vaccination, especially the mRNA preparations. Acute and Chronic Effects of the Vaccination Phenomena like endothelitis [...]

When Drugs Lead to Biofactor Deficiency For those in a hurry Besides side effects and interactions, drugs can have a negative effect on the biofactor household. Seniors are particularly affected, they more easily exhibit malnutrition and frequently take drugs. Thiazide and loop diuretics, metformin, acid blockers and SSRIs are particularly problematic. Many active ingredients in drugs can interfere with the absorption and excretion of vitamins, minerals or trace elements. The result is a biofactor deficit and an increased risk of further  health disorders. In particular [...]
