Lifestyle analysis

We look at the person in an evidence-based way within the system they live in: holistically, systemically & individually. Two scientifically grounded lifestyle analyses have grown out of that.

Both are medically led: assessment & findings always rest with our doctor. Our medically trained team supports the process.

What we look at

Our 5 cornerstones

Movement

Nutrition

Sleep

Strain & challenges

Environment & everyday life

For whom

Every system is different

Strain & environment always differ: what carries one person exhausts another. Our method stays the same: we look at you within your system.

Responsibility for others

Children, family, parents in need of care: those who look after everyone come last themselves. What counts here is what really holds up in a full day.

Responsibility at work

Leadership, self-employment, project pressure: constant availability & recovery as an afterthought. Strain often shows long before values become abnormal.

Living against your own rhythm

Shift work, irregular hours, a lot of travelling: sleep & meals without a steady beat. We look for the order that fits your rhythm.

Upheaval & transitions

A new phase of life, separation, retirement, menopause: the system rearranges itself. An outside view sorts things out & relieves pressure.

Normal values, still exhausted

Everything examined, nothing found & still the energy is missing. We take that seriously & look where values alone do not reach: at your system.

Staying ahead

You are well & would like it to stay that way. The analysis shows which habits carry you & where small adjustments achieve a lot.

Two analyses

General lifestyle analysis

We look at all areas of your life together.

General lifestyle analysis

Questionnaire in advance

Before the appointment you receive a two-page questionnaire; please bring it completed. Typical days are meaningful, not the particularly successful ones.

General lifestyle analysis

Detailed history

The appointment begins with a detailed history & a discussion of the questionnaire. We look at the person within the system they live in.

General lifestyle analysis

The five cornerstones

Together we go through movement, nutrition, sleep, strain & environment, & look for the small adjusting screws. Not to optimise every process, but to take weight off your day.

General lifestyle analysis

Physical examination

Firmly included are the physical examination, blood pressure measurement, the heart rate variability test & an analysis of body composition.

General lifestyle analysis

Further examinations where needed

A further range of examinations is available should reasons for them arise during the appointment. If we suspect a diagnosis, we discuss the next steps with you, for example targeted laboratory analyses, which are invoiced separately.

General lifestyle analysis

Two follow-up sessions included

The price includes two follow-up sessions of 30 minutes each, for example after six weeks & after around four months. That way nothing fizzles out: together we look at what has proven itself & what we adjust.

The sessions take place on site or by video, whichever fits your day. They can be used within six months.

General lifestyle analysis

An individual plan

There is no solution that works for everyone. The measures should be as individual as you are.

With your own question

Your specific concern

You bring a concern with you. For example: you feel restless, experience strain in your daily life or sleep badly.

Important: the analysis is not psychological counselling & not psychotherapy. If the conversation suggests that such support would be useful, we address that openly & help with the next steps.

With your own question

The same framework

Questionnaire, history & physical examination proceed just as in the general analysis.

With your own question

A deeper focus

We still consider the five cornerstones together, but go considerably deeper on your topic. With strain-related concerns we look more closely at heart rate variability, a measure of tension & recovery.

With your own question

Targeted diagnostics

If we suspect physical causes, we put together blood & function tests to match your question. Laboratory values are not included in the package price & are invoiced separately.

With your own question

Two follow-up sessions included

The price includes two follow-up sessions of 30 minutes each, for example after six weeks & after around four months. That way nothing fizzles out: together we look at what has proven itself & what we adjust.

The sessions take place on site or by video, whichever fits your day. They can be used within six months.

With your own question

A plan for your concern

At the end there is a plan that takes up exactly this concern, without losing sight of the rest.

The thinking behind it

Why a lifestyle analysis?

Health care does not only mean that a check-up & laboratory values are unremarkable. It is an interplay of both: of measurable values & of the person moving within their own system of life.

The strains we are exposed to every day are not merely feelings. External & internal strain factors can be measured scientifically, for instance through heart rate variability. Combining evidence-based diagnostics with an outside view of your own system helps to notice the adjusting screws & to develop strategies: to reduce strain, to shape your life more preventively & to stay free of complaints for as long as possible.

Sometimes the topic is long since clear. Then an outside view helps to develop strategies that carry in the long run & not just for the first two weeks.

Ablauf & Zeitrahmen

01

Preparation at home

about a week before

You receive the questionnaire & record food & sleep on three ordinary days. Typical days are meaningful, not the particularly successful ones.

02

The appointment

1.5 hours

History, discussion of the questionnaire, the five cornerstones & the physical examination with blood pressure, heart rate variability & body composition. If we suspect physical causes, targeted blood sampling follows at the end.

03

Laboratory evaluation

around two weeks

If blood was taken, the values arrive & we prepare the consultation. Should a finding emerge that cannot wait, we contact you immediately.

04

Evaluation consultation

60 minutes

We go through everything together & set down the steps that hold up in your daily life.

05

Follow-up sessions

2 x 30 minutes, included

For example after six weeks & after around four months, on site or by video: what has proven itself, what do we adjust? Can be used within six months.

Frequently asked questions about the lifestyle analysis

I am not sure which lifestyle analysis suits me.

That is not a problem: the emphasis usually emerges on its own during the conversation. Simply start, we will find the way together.

I just want to see whether there are adjusting screws I could improve.

That is exactly what the analysis is for. An outside view often helps to find the small adjustments that really change something day to day.

Are there examinations during the lifestyle analysis?

Yes: the physical examination, blood pressure measurement & the heart rate variability test are firmly included, as is an analysis of body composition. A further range of examinations is available should reasons for them arise during the appointment. If we suspect a diagnosis, we discuss the next steps with you, for example targeted laboratory analyses, which are invoiced separately.

Can I combine a check-up appointment with the analysis?

Yes. We are glad to find a suitable appointment for both on one day.

What is the difference between the lifestyle analysis and a check-up?

A check-up measures your body. The lifestyle analysis looks at the person within their system: movement, nutrition, sleep, strain & environment. The two can be combined if you wish. It is not essential: both work independently of each other, with different emphases.

Is the lifestyle analysis psychological counselling?

No. The lifestyle analysis is a medically led, preventive medical service. It is not psychological counselling & not psychotherapy, & does not replace either. If the conversation suggests that such support would be useful, we address that openly with you & help you with the next steps.

hey dr. schaaf!

Both lifestyle analyses cost 640 euros, including examination, evaluation consultation & two follow-up sessions. Targeted laboratory analyses are invoiced separately by the laboratory, should reasons for them arise during the appointment.

Still have questions? Do call us, we will take the time.
