Psychosomatics in the Fulda Clinic: Paths to mental and physical healing

On June 24, 2025, the time has finally come: The Fulda Clinic invites you to an exciting event entitled "Psychosomatics: When the body speaks for the psyche". From 4:30 p.m. an open forum will be offered in the Ino-Center on the 5th floor, in which patients, relatives and all interested parties can learn more about the close connection between physical complaints and psychological stress. Admission is free, registration is not required.

As part of this event, Prof. Dr. Henrik Kessler, the director of the Clinic for Psychosomatic Medicine and Psychotherapy, focus on the topic. Central topics such as stress, fears and mental stress are treated, which are often the cause of physical symptoms such as gastrointestinal problems, chronic pain or heart problems. A live interview with a patient suffers from chronic pain disorders is carried out as a special attraction. The event also offers the opportunity to address individual questions to the experts, which certainly offers visitors added value.

Psychosomatic complaints

Psychosomatic medicine looks at the complicated interaction between body, soul and social factors. Often physical symptoms such as constant exhaustion, pain or digestive problems show without physical causes clearly recognizable. In psychosomatics, these phenomena are described as somatoform disorders that are treated by identifying psychosocial causes and having holistic therapy is pursued. Among other things, physiotherapeutic measures, psychotherapeutic support and health -promoting lifestyle are used.

Many people suffer from stress and emotional conflicts, which can express themselves in the form of psychosomatic symptoms such as tension, breathing problems or skin diseases. However, these symptoms are real and can severely affect the quality of life. This shows how important it is to take a look at the psychological background of such symptoms in order to develop adequate therapy. “The soul speaks through the body,” it aptly describes it, because both mental and physical illnesses influence each other.

therapy approaches and treatment options

. A holistic approach is essential when it comes to the treatment of psychosomatic complaints. Effective methods include psychotherapies such as cognitive behavioral therapy, relaxation techniques such as yoga or autogenic training as well as physiotherapeutic treatments. Homeopathy also applies in many cases and offers an individually coordinated treatment option. These areas offer promising approaches to relieve the symptoms and to improve mental balance.

In addition, promoting a healthy lifestyle plays a decisive role in the treatment process. A balanced diet, regular exercise and the waiver of alcohol and smoking help to increase well -being and support healing.
