The treatment options at a glance

First appointment

Creation of a treatment plan

In order to create an individual treatment plan for your child for the first time, I have to get to know your child once in the practice. During the appointment, which lasts about 90 minutes, I will ask you important questions about your child's development and health.

 

We discuss all important aspects:

  • Pregnancy and birth

  • Breastfeeding and current nutrition

  • Operations, hospital stays, antibiotics and medication

  • Current administration of nutritional supplements

  • Motor development in the first years of life

  • The current level of development (language, reading and writing, numeracy)

  • Possible behavioral problems

  • Sleep and sleep problems

  • Health of skin, hair, nails and tooth fracture

 

After this detailed anamnesis, a physical examination and when all the laboratory results are available, I spend around 90 minutes working on the development of a multi-page therapy plan tailored specifically to your child, including therapy recommendations (e.g. recommended further tests such as urine and stool tests, nutritional recommendations, and nutritional supplements). To do this, I conscientiously and thoroughly evaluate your child's medical history and blood values and research the ideal recommendations.

 

You will receive the therapy plan by email within two to four weeks.

 

The fee is €400 plus laboratory costs.

Follow-up appointment

Adjusting a treatment plan

If you are in the PowerUp! BASIS or PowerUp! INTENSIV online program, this appointment is often times not necessary, as we will clarify the important factors during the consultation hours. In rare, complex cases, I ask you to book an appointment for this.
In preparation for our telephone appointment, I spend about 45 minutes reading through the questionnaire you filled out:

  • How is growth and BMI, are there current problems and what are the symptoms?

  • I compare current laboratory values with the previous findings (before TNI/after TNI) and check for a possible lack of nutrients or an increase in blood values

  • A special look is also on development: language, motor skills, reading, writing, number understanding

  • Are there any problems with digestion and how are they presenting? Toilet training?

  • How is your child's sleep currently?

 

In order to discuss anything that is unclear to me and to be able to ask questions, we talk on the phone for 30 minutes. Afterwards I sit down for about 90 minutes to development a multi-page therapy plan individually tailored to your child, including updated therapy recommendations (e.g. recommended further tests such as urine and stool tests, nutritional recommendations, and nutritional supplements).


You will receive the therapy plan by email within two to four weeks. The fee is €330 plus laboratory costs.

For follow-up appointments on site, a fee of €350 plus laboratory costs is charged.

Preparation
before the appointment

For all appointments I always need the patient's current height and weight.


For initial appointments, please also bring:
The last 1-2 results of laboratory values, other important findings or diagnoses (e.g. a sleep study, genetic analysis, findings from gastroenterology or endocrinology). For smaller children also the U-booklet and the vaccination book.


For follow-up appointments I need:
The last 1-2 results of laboratory values, other new findings or diagnoses (e.g. a sleep study, genetic analysis, findings from gastroenterology or endocrinology).

In addition, a questionnaire (for patients with or without Down Syndrome) must be filled out. We are happy to send you the questionnaire upon telephone request. Please fill out the PDF directly, not by hand. All results for follow-up appointments should be submitted at least two days before the appointment so that the appointment can take place.

How can I check whether my child is individually supported? What to do if allergies arise? Which further tests should I use for my child? How does a sleep study work and why are these important? How can I support my child's immune system? Why does my child not grow enough? How do the individual parts from the TNI protocol work? What exactly happens in my child's body when an .extra chromosome 21 is available? What does a healthy diet look like and what can I do if my child is a picky eater?

Further test procedures

In contrast to conventional medicine, which often only treats the symptoms of an illness, functional medicine tries to get to the bottom of the cause and address it. We have a variety of tests available for this purpose, including:

Stool examinations:

Would you like to know what your child's microbiome is like? Would you like to know whether digestion and the immune system in the intestine are functioning optimally? Do you want to make sure there is no inflammation? And support the child’s intestinal flora with prebiotics and probiotics?
A stool examination can always provide helpful information, but it should be carried out especially if there are problems: changing consistency, chronic constipation, flatulence or diarrhea, undigested food components - these are all symptoms that should not be ignored. It also makes sense to check suspicious individual values.

You can find a test kit for a microbiome analysis or sets for infants and children in our patient shop. This is available to my patients and participants of my PowerUp! online consultation hours. If you need help, give us a call anytime.


For the analysis I charge €49 plus laboratory costs; you will then receive an assessment from me via email. For existing patients, I will send you a treatment plan.

Urine tests:

Would you like to know whether oxidative stress is currently increased? Would you like to control your supply of B-vitamins? Do you want to make sure that your energy metabolism is optimal? Do you want to check the balance of neurotransmitters? A urine test gives us a specific insight into metabolism and can optimally complement a blood test.

 

You can find various test kits in our patient shop. This is available to my patients and participants in my PowerUp! online consultation hours. If you need help, please give us a call anytime.

For the analysis I charge €49 plus laboratory costs. You will then receive an assessment from me via email. For existing patients, I will send you a treatment plan.

Further investigations:

In the patient shop you will also find sets for an amino acid analysis or for checking the Omega-3 index. If you would like to carry out a hair mineral analysis to examine heavy metals in the body or an existing mineral deficiency, please contact us by phone.
