Why Men's Health?

It's a well-known fact that men have a far unhealthier lifestyle than women. Men smoke more, consume more alcohol, and stop playing sports after a certain age — preferring to spend time relaxing on the couch, often immediately after a high-calorie dinner. Men tend to ignore physical and mental disorders and resist the idea of screenings or preventive measures. Statistically, men die ten years earlier than women. What can be done to improve men's health? There is one basic principle I adhere to in my practice: Treatment must be individually tailored for each man.

Seeking Treatment and Pushing Limits to Fulfill Societal Masculine Ideals

Still, there are recurring problems for which men increasingly require treatment which need to be considered. Men constantly demand motivation from themselves and repeatedly try to exceed their own physical and mental limits. These are just two of many points that can be seen as an external expression of internalized values on what it means to be a man.

01

Understanding the Male Body: Unraveling Key Symptoms and Links to Treatment

The male body often displays symptoms that play an important role in treatment. These not only relate to the sex organs and sexuality — which include a variety of illness and diseases and disorders that are specific to men — they also include distinct characteristics in the male physiology (including metabolism, endocrine system) which in turn strongly correlate to the psyche.

Redefining Men's Health: Beyond Quick Fixes — Embracing a Holistic Approach"

Among most men, the expectations for treatment can be characterized by the mind set of, “repairing the damage as quickly as possible so that everything is working properly again.” This mentality loses sight of the fact that restoring good health is a process which must take many health factors into account.

Fostering Open Dialogue: Empowering Men to Confront Health Challenges Together

Important first steps in this process are on one hand, the recognition and formulation of one's own needs and, on the other hand, the honest and clear naming of all existing complaints. While that may sound trite, most men find this sort of preparation extremely difficult. With my knowledge and my understanding of these problems (including my own experiences as a man) as well as my personal method of guidance, I can create conditions that form a basis of confidence in talking man to man and addressing the complex issues together.

Holistic approach to health

Health is not limited to physical symptoms alone. It is an interplay of different areas of life. My approach encompasses more than just medical knowledge and tools.

Foundation of understanding

The unreserved acceptance of each patient and a precise understanding of their individual history of suffering form the foundation of my work. I see it as fundamental to engage in this healing process.

Empathetic dialog at eye level

From this foundation, I conduct empathetic dialogs. My strength is to work with my patients as equals in order to support them in their individual healing processes.

Step 2
Individual therapy

A part of my unique approach to the Men's Health is geared towards conversation and through other (such as Lifestyle Regulation Therapy) measures as well as more awareness and action strategies for dealing with the following issues: to create
• Judgment-free perception of their needs
• Recognition of one's own (power) limits
• Learning to relax
• Planned rest periods
• Taking time out
• The goal of doing something for oneself
• Leisure activities away from work, partners, and family
• Identifying and satisfying social needs
• Increased body awareness

Step 3
Further measures if necessary

Additionally, other therapies (such as Acupuncture, Homeopathy and Phytotherapy) are available depending on the indication; they can be used for holistic, acute, chronic, or constitutional treatment. As part of Men's Health therapy, I offer massages specifically tailored for men, which focus on certain body parts (such as the cranial muscles or the muscles of the lower back) that are typically affected. My personal technique is attuned to the male anatomy that tends to have more pronounced muscles, firm tissue, thicker skin, and stronger bones. I also perform massage targeted for the treatment of certain diseases (such as the prostate).

Men of all ages and sexual orientations are welcome in my practice.
