Method of working BodySwitch

Our Working Method

We have developed a unique and successful working method based on the principles of integrative and orthomolecular medicine. We always look for the cause of complaints and do not treat symptoms. For best results, we like to collaborate with mainstream medicine.

Characteristics of our approach:

Investigation of the cause of complaints
Personalized treatment plan
Intensive counseling

Our treatment is based on four pillars:

Mindset

Food and lifestyle habits are usually ingrained. Changing your lifestyle is not easy. We will guide you through this process.

Motion

Sufficient exercise is crucial for good health. Together with you, we look at ways in which you can give substance to this.

Nutrition

Healthy, pure foods are the building blocks for a healthy body. Many chronic diseases can be solved by switching to a healthy diet.

Supplement

Depending on your personal situation, we deploy targeted supplementation. For example, to support your recovery or supplement deficiencies.

The treatment process

The treatment process at BodySwitch consists of four phases. The total turnaround time depends on your personal situation, but you can assume an average of 12 months.

Analysis

1.5 months

We always start the process with a comprehensive analysis. To find out where your symptoms are coming from, it is necessary for us to know a lot about you. For the first intake consultation, we ask you to complete a comprehensive online questionnaire and keep a food diary. During the intake consultation, we discuss the results of the initial analysis, the options for treatment and the cost estimate of the treatment course. If necessary, we do additional laboratory tests (blood and intestinal flora). This will give you insight into the status of your health and what causes your symptoms, such as the state of your gut, immunity, nutritional deficiencies and any intolerances. Based on the results of the examination and your goals, we will create your personal treatment plan. The lead time between the first consultation and the next consultation is about 5-6 weeks. This time is needed i.e. requesting and processing the surveys.

Start-up phase

3 months

This phase starts with the second consultation. Here we discuss the results of the laboratory examination. And we explain your personal treatment plan, in which we give substance to the four pillars: nutrition, supplementation, exercise and mindset. After this consultation, the treatment process begins. This phase focuses on removing the bad substances in the body, getting the factors causing the symptoms under control and replenishing any nutritional deficiencies. In this phase, we schedule a follow-up consultation every month, where we discuss the interim results with you. If necessary, we perform re-testing. In this way, we monitor the progress of the results along with your own findings. We establish your personal areas of concern and, where necessary, adjust the treatment plan. In this phase, you usually notice soon that you start to feel fitter and healthier.

Construction

3 months

Treatment in this phase is focused on building the immune system and overall support of body processes. At this stage, we schedule a number of follow-up consultations. We will discuss the interim results with you and, if necessary, have additional laboratory tests done. If necessary, we adjust the treatment plan (nutrition and supplementation). Consultations additionally focus on counseling and coaching.

Optimization

3 months

In this phase, we focus on optimizing the immune system and overall support of body processes. The goal is that the body has recovered as much as possible and the symptoms have disappeared (as much as possible). Based on the interim results, we further sharpen the treatment program where necessary, so that maximum results are achieved.

Maintenance

6 months

Once the desired result is achieved, we draw up the maintenance plan. This will help you maintain your health and goal even after treatment. You have gained insight into your health so that you can use the knowledge and experience gained to stay fit and healthy after treatment. After 6 months, we schedule a follow-up consultation so you continue to monitor your health closely. After this, you will be well able to maintain your own health, so that you can be the “director of your own health” for the rest of your life!
