In the era of specialisation, the holistic approach to medical problems is more topical than ever. Fasting fulfils this requirement, because it engages the whole human being: body, soul and mind. Our Therapeutic Fasting, which has always been holistic in nature, is designed to cleanse and regenerate the organism, and activates its self-healing forces. It is combined with a change of the patient’s lifestyle to a healthy one (life dietetics) and taking greater responsibility for one’s own health.

With the knowledge of the profound interactions of body, soul and mind, in addition to the objective allopathic criteria one also has to pay attention to the personality and the psychosocial environment of the patient, because illness never affects only one part of the human being. This basic approach is an essential part of "holistic" medicine, which sees the human being as a whole and does not limit itself to merely treating symptoms.

Elements of respiratory therapy, Body and Mind, Yoga and Qigong are employed next to psychotherapeutic approaches to restore the mental and spiritual balance. Individual counselling, mental coaching and the family atmosphere have sustained effects – particularly combined with the mind-liberating effect of fasting – on the spirit and lead to self-discovery and orientation.
