Burnout is a very striking and well-known term. Many people who overextend themselves in our performance-oriented society and feel chronically exhausted – whether physically or emotionally – can identify with the term burnout.
There are no clearly defined symptoms for the
burnout syndrome. Many complaints overlap with other
illnesses, such as fatigue, lack of motivation, low drive,
headaches, concentration problems, and more.
For those affected, the suspected cause is usually more important
than the symptoms themselves.
The burnout condition must always be taken seriously, as it does not go away on its own, and even a week of vacation is not enough to undo the damage.
There is no standard treatment for burnout. The therapy must fit the
patient and their individual life situation.
Schleicher & Brückl Practice offers you a range of
therapeutic measures to help restore your natural sense of health.
In some cases, simple stress management techniques, time management, and relaxation can already make a big difference.
If you suspect that you may be suffering from burnout, you should make an appointment with a doctor. Don’t be afraid of the conversation – the Schleicher & Brückl Practice has extensive experience with burnout syndrome and focuses not only on accurate diagnostics but also on a therapy tailored specifically to your needs.
If burnout syndrome is suspected, the doctor will first check whether there are any physical causes for your symptoms, such as metabolic disorders, overactive or underactive thyroid, or other hormonal imbalances. In addition, constant triggers like bacteria, viruses, fungi, and stomach germs must be ruled out. Afterward, your immune system will be examined more closely and tested for allergies.
At this point, for example,
neural therapy
or drug-based treatment can follow, which stimulates the body’s own
healing powers. The patient should also be tested for heavy metals.
If a burden is present, the first step in therapy is detoxification,
which boosts your performance and restores your natural sense of
health.
Based on experience, burnout syndrome can be treated
relatively well.
