Microbiome analyses
The composition of your intestinal environment is unique. If it becomes unbalanced, various illnesses and complaints can result. By analyzing your intestinal inhabitants, we can help you return to a symptom-free everyday life.

Your gut is at the heart of our work. Because this is where more is decided than you might think: digestion, immune system, energy levels – everything is connected. That's why we combine medical knowledge with modern analyses and personalised therapies.
Are issues such as irritable bowel syndrome, flatulence or intolerances part of your daily life?
Or would you like to invest in your health preventively? We will delve deeper and find out what is troubling you.

Overview
The composition of your intestinal environment is unique. If it becomes unbalanced, various illnesses and complaints can result. By analyzing your intestinal inhabitants, we can help you return to a symptom-free everyday life.
When the small intestine is overpopulated with bacteria, this is called small intestinal bacterial overgrowth. Medications, gastrointestinal infections ("Montezuma's revenge," "Bali belly"), or chronic illnesses can be triggers.

personalised treatment
This is how we support you:
Good to know
Our modern life quickly throws the intestines out of balance:
Unhealthy diet (too little fiber, too much sugar & fat)
Medications such as antibiotics or acid blockers
Stress, lack of sleep, environmental toxins
Lack of exercise or excessive exercise
Such "traumas" can break down the protective mucous layer, damage intestinal cells, and create a breeding ground for pathogenic germs. People with an already weakened intestinal environment are particularly affected – in these cases, regeneration often takes months or isn't even possible without support.
Initial appointments:
We take 60 minutes for each initial appointment to provide you with professional and customized therapy.
In this context, we also conduct file studies and documentation, which are billed individually based on the effort required per consultation.
The same applies, of course, to telephone or online conversations as well as email correspondence, even between scheduled on-site appointments.
We bill in 5-minute increments. 300 CHF/hour.
Proctological and orthopedic examinations are billed according to Tarmed and can be submitted to the health insurance company. In the case of extended consultations, a self-payer portion applies depending on the scope.
Supplementary insurance:
If you have supplementary insurance, you can submit our invoices through this (VVG/complementary medicine).
Proctological examinations can be billed through health insurance/basic insurance.
Orthopedic consultations can also be billed through basic and supplementary insurance, depending on the length of the consultation. If supplementary insurance is not available, a deductible may apply for some treatments.
.
All other consultations can be covered by supplementary insurance (VVG/complementary medicine). If supplementary insurance is not available/does not cover this, the consultation is a self-pay service.
Further diagnostics (microbiome analyses, SIBO tests, special analyses and many infusion therapies) are often self-pay services.
