The EEG is a diagnostic method designed for the measuring of brain activity. Variations of voltage are deduced from the brain thus allowing inferences to the neurotransmission of the brain. The measurements are taken off of the surface of the patient’s head by way of electrode pads. The obtained waves are reproduced in a diagram. 
The EEG is needed for example to diagnose epilepsy (seizure disorder), encephalitis (inflammation of the brain), tumours of the brain, but also in case of headaches of all kinds, such as migraine, or unexplained vision disorders, imbalance etc.

This examination is used for the early detection of dementia processes when non-specific memory disorders occur, or unusual obliviousness or if there is a family history of dementia. 
“Am I only forgetting things or do I already suffer from Alzheimer’s disease?” “Some members of my family are suffering from Alzheimer’s disease. How likely is it that I will also get this disease?”
Questions such as these are often asked and can be discussed when carrying out the dementia screening. At best baseless fears will be remedied, at worst early steps can be taken (e.g. training the cognitive functions of the brain) or medical intervention to avoid or to allay any vascular dementia processes. Even with Alzheimer’s disease there is a range of possibilities to slow down the process.

Measurement of the velocity by which nerve tracts conduct an electric pulse. In the case of nerve damages of various kinds, the velocity may be slowed down accordingly or the height of the electric potential amplitude is changed. 
For example: polyneuropathy, carpal tunnel syndrome, plexus and radix neuropathia and others.

Examination and measurement of muscle activity. Thus it is possible to diagnose muscle weaknesses the origin of which may be the muscle itself or the nerve tracts which activate the muscle.

Imaging ultrasound-exploration of the blood vessels and the blood flow.
IMT (INTIMA MEDIA THICKNESS) means the Duplex sonographical picturing of the thickness of the arterial vascular wall, especially the inner layer (Intima), and rating the thickness of the intima media (INTIMA MEDIA THICKNESS).
IMT allows a very early determination of a generalized arteriosclerosis which may lead to ischaemic attacks or even stroke or heart infarction. This method is able to supply important information for the early diagnosis of an increased risk of stroke or heart failure.

Ultrasound-exploration of the blood vessels leading to the brain.

Ultrasound-exploration of the blood vessels inside the brain, carried out in order to determine arteriosclerotic plaques or constrictions thus making it possible to check on the blood supply of the brain and prevent bursting of the plaques by medical or surgical intervention to avoid stroke or other blood vessel based deterioration.

Measurement of the acoustic and the equilibrium tracts within the brainstem. 
For example: vertigo, defective hearing, unsteadiness of gait.

Measurement of the optic nerve up to the visual cortex of the brain. 
For example: vision disorders, vertigo, multiple sclerosis, other disturbances.

Measurement of the sensitive nerve tracts of the limbs via the spinal cord to the brain. 
For example: spinal tumours and tumours of the brain, inflammatory processes, lack of vitamin B12.

Measurement of the equilibrium system.
 Used for diseases like: vertigo, unsteadiness of gait and other disturbances of the equilibrium.

Psychotherapy is therapeutic interaction or treatment contracted between a trained professional and a client, patient, family, couple, or group. Simply, psychotherapy is a general term for treating mental health problems by talking with a psychiatrist, psychologist or other mental health provider. During psychotherapy, one hopes to learn about their condition and moods, feelings, thoughts and behaviors, how to take control of one's life and respond to challenging situations with healthy coping skills. The problems addressed are psychological in nature and can vary in terms of their causes, influences, triggers, and potential resolutions. Accurate assessment of these and other variables depends on the practitioner's capability and can change or evolve as the practitioner acquires experience, knowledge, and insight.

Clinical psychology is an integration of science, theory and clinical knowledge for the purpose of understanding, preventing, and relieving psychologically-based distress or dysfunction and to promote subjective and personal development. Central to its practice are psychological assessment and psychotherapy, although clinical psychologists also engage in research, teaching, consultation, forensic testimony, and program development and administration.In many countries, clinical psychology is regulated as a health care profession.

There are times when our emotions can feel overwhelming and our ability to cope with everyday situations becomes a challenge. Counselling provides an opportunity to speak openly and confidentially to someone who is professionally trained to help you to recognise the source of your present difficulties. It offers a space in which you can feel supported and understood, in a manner which allows you to explore and manage whatever is happening in your life. Being able to talk freely about things that are troubling you can be a tremendous relief.

Jennifer’s approach is psychodynamic. Psychodynamic Counselling uses the therapeutic relationship to gain insight into unconscious relationship patterns. A painful situation in the present may have its roots in the past, although we may not be aware of the connection. Once these links are uncovered, the individual can begin to experience greater freedom of thought and action, leading to an improved sense of self and positive change.

Sport psychology scrutinizes mental and emotional aspects of human behaviors before, during, and after physical activities in various athletic environments.

The principles of modern sport psychology interventions integrate and teach aspects of cognitive-behavioral psychology, neurology, psychophysiology, holistic modalities, and sport-exercise science in order to sustain the athletes’ awareness of the enigmatic connection regarding mental process, physical ability, and performance.

· disorders of brain activity
· depression

· anxiety disorders 
· personality disorders
· sleeping disorders
By using neuropsychological test procedures, we can detect cognitive deficiencies in patients with the most differing illnesses.

Thus important hints can be gained regarding diagnostic methods, therapies and the assumable process.
Besides the general intellectual capacity, we are able to test the working (functional) memory, the learning ability, memory retrieval, executive functions and psychomotor realization.

Heart Rate Variability (HRV) biofeedback is psycho- physiological measurement (Heart Rate-ECG, Blood Pressure, and Respiration) to diagnose autonomic regulation, stress resistance, cardiovascular health, and vitality in persons. Heart Rate Variability (HRV) means changes in the interval or distance between one beat of the heart and the next. The interbeat interval (IBI) is the time between one R-wave (or heart beat) and the next, in milliseconds. The IBI is highly variable within any given time period. HRV is analyzed in two ways, either over time (Time Domain) or in terms of the frequency of changes in Heart Rate (Frequency Domain).

HRV biofeedback training is a special technique for training individuals to change their variability as well as dominant heart rhythms in cardiovascular activity in order to increase their vitality and health. HRV biofeedback is applied to a variety of medical and psychiatric conditions such as: anger, anxiety disorders, stress disorder, depression, asthma, cardiovascular problems, or chronic fatigue. Biofeedback training suites for individuals who would like to increase the percentage of total HRV (vitality) by proper breathing exercises in order to adjust their “resonant frequency” and, thus, generate autonomic balance of the nervous system between sympathetic and parasympathetic tone.

Each individual has a “resonant frequency” at which heart rate variability is the greatest and the most vital for their organism. This “resonant frequency” is measured by HRV biofeedback instruments and it is a training of the heart rhythm by respiration called Respiratory Sinus Arrhythmia (RSA). This “resonant frequency” is mostly produced by persons in a relaxed mental state, with a positive emotional stage, and especially by diaphragmatic breathing at a rate of about 5-7 breaths per minute. Thus, individuals in HRV biofeedback training are directly taught to increasing their HRV parameters and, consequently, improve their mental health, vitality, autonomic balance.
