Our Concept
(W)HEALTH MEDIATION
Preventive, Functional, and Integrative Medicine
Anticipating the consequences of physical and psycho-emotional changes throughout life is a legitimate quest regardless of age. In this regard, the (W)Health Mediation® concept aims to mitigate the effects of the aging process, taking into account a range of factors.
Patients’ daily recognition and awareness of their physiological and emotional changes greatly facilitates this process. The concepts of Vitality, Potentiality, and Optimization are at the core of our approach.
The personalized mobilization of each patient’s resources, combined with the use of coordinated therapeutic methods (Integrative Medicine = the best of allopathic and/or natural medicine), allows us to achieve this objective.
The five pillars determining the status of your health
Energetics
- Mitochondrial dysregulations (cellular respiratory unit)
- Excessive energy production, stagnation, or insufficiency
- Organs and viscera
Psycho-emotional
Lifestyle and stress factors based on socio-professional, familial, cultural, intellectual, spiritual, and philosophical criteria.
Environmental
Consideration of harmful environmental factors of all kinds (pollutants, chemicals, mycotoxins, radiation, nanoparticles).
Metabolic
- Biochemical, neuroendocrine, hormonal, immune, genetic, microbiota (bacterial, viral, fungal, parasitic), autonomic nervous system
- Nutritional, physical activity, fasting
Mechanical
- Musculoskeletal system, viscera, overall tissue,
- Vascular and nervous systems, fascia
Health status
The status of one’s health is defined as the sum of constant readjustments in imbalances (billions of pieces of information every second.
Our body operates within a self-regulating, self-compensating system. Life is synthetically defined by Movement. Any loss of mobility is instantly regulated and compensated by a series of complex mechanisms.
Any imbalance (whether internal or external) of one of the pillars of health will influence the others (communicating vessels) and can negatively impact the balance and proper functioning of these.
The optimal functioning of each of the pillars mitigates these variables.
Identifying dysfunctional pillars
Determining which of the pillars is dysfunctional within a patient allows us to understand the dysfunctional interactions taking place and propose a coherent therapeutic strategy to readjsut these.
Investigation criteria
Medical history
Observation and clarification of the patient’s medical history in reference to the five pillars, especially relating to any specific concerns raised by the patient.
Clinical examination
Observation, palpation, auscultation, movement tests, neurological tests, vascular tests
Complementary examinations
Radiological imaging, laboratory tests, functional tests
Steps to communicating our findings
Analyze and synthesize all the data among specialists.
Define the most appropriate therapeutic strategy, in accordance with the patient's wishes
Share, explain, and obtain informed consent from patients
Treatment
Intervene on the prioritized dysfunctional pillar(s).
Environmental
- Improve, to the extent possible, patients’ compliance with regard to various environmental disturbances
- Raise awareness through workshops, seminars and the exchange of authenticated information
Metabolic
- Targeted nutrition, micronutrition, microbiota, neuroendocrine regulations
- Imbalances in elements, vitamins, enzymes
- Bacterial, fungal, viral, and parasitic dysbiosis
Energetics
- Acupuncture, Mindfulness, QiGong, Self-hypnosis, Yoga
Mechanical
- Manual medicine, neuro-reflex therapies, dynamic posturology
Psycho-emotional
- Psychological or psychotherapeutic support to enable patients to mobilize their own resources and initiate a process of resilience
- Psychotherapy, hypnosis, role-playing, family and couples therapy, mediation
Is the (W)Health Mediation® concept for me?
The (W)Health Mediation® concept is based on the application of a bio-psycho-social model underpinned by environmental factors. It applies to every patient, regardless of age.
The identification and modulation of functional disorders by a multidisciplinary team such as RISA, prior to the development of potential pathologies, provide patients with the essential tools to identify and sustain a state of health as close as possible to their inherent potential.
