Psychosomatic medicine deals with the mental-emotional capabilities of people combined with a patient’s reaction patterns, their specific condition and the connection to physical symptoms and social living conditions. Therefore, it is a medical discipline that links a person’s psychological condition including special individual characteristics (e.g. fears, special mental stress situations and serious life changes) to their physical condition and provides the required treatment.
The psychosomatic facilities at MediClin stand out due to their different clinical specialities, which enable patients to receive highly specialised medical provision. Therefore, people with special psychological issues in their everyday working lives (e.g. stress, bullying), patients with weight problems (adipositas or anorexia) and people with chronic pain (e.g. back pain, fibromyalgia) can be treated just like those patients dealing with an especially serious event in life (psychotraumatology).
A further specialist discipline at MediClin is the combination of psychosomatic rehabilitation clinics with acute inpatient psychosomatic care, which is accompanied by an increased intensity in the level of treatment provided.
