Staying mobile despite osteoarthritis –new approaches in biological medicine

Dear Patients,

Osteoarthritis is one of the most common causes of chronic pain and limited mobility. Its incidence increases significantly with age, but younger people can also be affected. For a long time, osteoarthritis was understood primarily as mechanical wear and tear. Today we know that, in addition to structural changes, inflammatory and metabolic processes also play an important role.
Biological medicine takes these interrelationships into account and supplements the classic orthopaedic approach with systemic aspects.

Osteoarthritis – an  interplay of several factors

Osteoarthritis – an  interplay of several factors

Osteoarthritis is characterised by the progressive degradation of joint cartilage and changes in the surrounding tissue. The imbalance between the processes of formation and degradation in the joint is crucial here.

Various factors can contribute to this development:

Osteoarthritis therefore not only affects the joint itself, but is often linked to general regulatory processes in the body.

Regeneration is possible – under  the right conditions

Joint cartilage has only limited regenerative capacity. However, current findings show that tissue does have reparative potential. This requires stable metabolic conditions, an adequate supply of nutrients and as little inflammatory stress as possible.

This is precisely where a biologically integrative approach comes in. The aim is to create conditions that can support regenerative processes.

Holistic diagnostics as a basis

At the Alpstein Clinic, osteoarthritis is not just treated by focusing on the painful joint. An additional analysis of possible systemic factors is carried out to create an individual picture of the situation.

Depending on the findings, the following factors may be taken into account, among others:

This differentiated approach enables targeted and individually tailored therapy planning.

Biological-integrative  therapy approaches

Various procedures are combined based on the diagnosis. The aim is to regulate inflammatory processes, optimise tissue supply and stabilise joint function.

Depending on the individual situation, the following are used, among others:

Orthomolecular micronutrient therapy

Hyaluronic acid

Magnetic field therapy

Accompanying psychoenergetic procedures

These measures are carefully coordinated and embedded in a holistic treatment concept.

Aim  of the treatment

The focus is not only on short-term pain reduction, but also on the long-term stabilisation of joint function. In many cases, a combination of differentiated diagnostics and regenerative therapy approaches can improve mobility, resilience and quality of life.

We look forward to meeting you in person

We would be happy to advise you personally at the Alpstein Clinic on which biological-integrative options for osteoarthritis may be appropriate for your individual situation. Together, we will develop a concept to support your joint health.

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.

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.
