Early Detection of Parkinson’s Disease – Why Prevention Is So Important

Dear Patients,

Parkinson’s disease usually develops over many years. Typical motor symptoms such as tremors, muscle stiffness or slowed movements often appear only when a large proportion of nerve cells in the brain has already been damaged. This makes the early detection of potential risk factors all the more important.

Early signs  of Parkinson’s disease

Early signs  of Parkinson’s disease

Long before a diagnosis is made, so-called non-motor symptoms may occur, such as:

Impaired sense of smell

Chronic constipation

Sleep disorders, particularly REM sleep behavior disorder

Depressive moods or persistent fatigue

These signs illustrate that Parkinson’s disease does not affect the brain alone, but the entire organism.

The role of the gut–brain axis

Current research suggests that the gut microbiome may play a central role in the development of Parkinson’s disease. Changes in the gut flora and intestinal mucosa can promote inflammatory processes and possibly contribute to the misfolding of proteins that are typical of Parkinson’s disease.

Studies show that the balance of gut bacteria is altered in Parkinson’s disease: Certain health-promoting bacteria are less common, while pro-inflammatory germs are on the rise. These changes could contribute to early detection in the future and also influence the effect of drugs in the body.

Our holistic approach to  early detection

At Alpstein Clinic, we combine various diagnostic methods to identify potential risks at an early stage:

  • Analysis of the gut microbiome through stool testing
  • Assessment of immune status
  • Microbiotic analyses of the oral mucosa
  • Movement and coordination tests
  • Specialized blood tests (including inflammatory markers, trace elements, BDNF, neurofilament light chains)
  • Additional genetic analyses and cognitive tests

Prevention  before symptoms appear

Studies show that neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s do not develop suddenly, but rather over many years. Even in the early stages, long before typical motor symptoms appear, inflammatory processes, metabolic changes, sleep disorders and immunological abnormalities can be observed.

According to studies, dietary habits, especially high consumption of highly processed foods, are also associated with early signs of Parkinson’s disease. These findings underscore the importance of early diagnostic classification to identify potential risk factors.

Vierte StufeHarmonisieren

Damit Körper, Geist und Seele wieder in Einklang zu bringen, sollte man sich selbst annehmen und wertschätzen. Dafür bieten wir Ihnen in der Alpstein Clinic ein ideales Umfeld, in dem Sie zu sich selbst finden und neue Kraft schöpfen können.

Dritte StufeRegenerieren und Stimulieren

Erholung fördern und Abwehr anregen: Mit einer grossen Palette an unspezifischen und spezifischem Immunstimulanzien, immunstärkenden Massnahmen wie Hyperthermie, Infusionen, Ozontherapie und Colonhydroptherapie stimulieren wir die humorale und zelluläre Abwehr. Das Anregen und Vitalisieren aller Organe und körperlicher Strukturen sind Komponenten unseres ganzheitlichen Konzeptes.

Nächste Stufe

Zweite StufeAusleiten und Entlasten

Nun konzentrieren wir uns auf ein ausgeglichenes inneres Milieu des Körpers und schaffen damit die Basis für einen Heilungserfolg. Wichtige Instrumente sind dabei die Zahnsanierung, die Darmsanierung oder die Entgiftung der Organe. In dieser Phase setzen wir die Blut-Plasma-Doppelmembran-Filtration (INUSpherese®) und eine ganzheitliche Schmerztherapie ein und reduzieren schrittweise nebenwirkungsreiche Medikamente der konventionellen Medizin.

Step fourHarmonize

In order to bring body, mind and soul back into harmony, you need to accept and appreciate yourself. At the Alpstein Clinic, we offer you an ideal environment in which you can find yourself and recharge your batteries.

Stage threeRegenerate and stimulate

In this step, we promote recovery and stimulate the immune system: We stimulate the humoral and cellular defenses with a wide range of non-specific and specific immune stimulants, immune-boosting measures such as hyperthermia, infusions, ozone therapy and colon hydrotherapy. The stimulation and vitalization of all organs and physical structures are components of our holistic concept.

Step twoDetox and relieve

We now concentrate on creating a balanced internal environment in the body, thereby creating the basis for successful healing. Important instruments here are dental cleansing, intestinal cleansing and detoxification of the organs. In this phase, we use blood plasma double membrane filtration (INUSpheresis® ) and holistic pain therapy and gradually reduce the use of conventional medicines that have many side effects.

Stage oneAnalyse causes

In the first step, we work with you to get to the bottom of the possible causes of your complaints. We examine possible interference fields, toxic loads, environmental factors, deficiencies, malnutrition and stress factors. This is followed by a comprehensive physical and dental examination. This is followed by further diagnostic measures such as blood, stool, saliva and urine tests, thermography and other tools.
