Food Allergies & Intolerances »
Natural Treatment in Berlin
Bloating, abdominal pain, diarrhea, skin reactions, or fatigue after eating may indicate a food allergy or food intolerance. The symptoms are often nonspecific, which can make it difficult to clearly identify the cause in everyday life.
In my naturopathic practice in Berlin, I view food allergies and food intolerances from a holistic perspective. The aim is to identify possible triggers, stabilize gut health, and develop an individually suitable dietary strategy that supports digestion and helps improve overall well-being in the long term while reducing recurring digestive complaints.
What Are Food Allergies & Food Intolerances?
A food allergy is an immune-mediated reaction to certain components in food (e.g., proteins). Even small amounts can trigger symptoms.
A food intolerance, on the other hand, is usually not based on a classic allergic reaction but rather on enzymatic or functional disturbances, such as lactose or fructose intolerance.
Common Triggers
- Milk and dairy products (lactose, milk protein)
- Wheat or gluten-containing grains
- Nuts and peanuts
- Eggs
- Soy
- Foods containing fructose
- Foods high in histamine
Typical Symptoms
- Bloating, abdominal pain, diarrhea, or constipation
- Nausea
- Skin reactions (redness, itching, eczema)
- Headaches or migraines
- Fatigue and reduced performance
- In true allergies, possibly swelling or breathing difficulties
If severe allergic reactions or breathing difficulties occur, immediate medical attention is required.
When Is a Holistic Treatment Useful?
Many people try different diets on their own or eliminate foods without a clear structure. In the long term, this can lead to nutritional deficiencies or unnecessary dietary restrictions.
Naturopathic guidance may be useful when:
- Digestive complaints occur regularly after eating
- Skin problems or migraines are associated with certain foods
- Several intolerances have already been diagnosed
- You would like a structured elimination and reintroduction phase
- Digestion, gut microbiome, or immune system appear weakened
In my practice in Berlin, stabilizing gut health is often a central focus, as the gut plays an important role in the immune system.
Holistic Therapy for Food Allergies & Food Intolerances in Berlin
Every treatment begins with a comprehensive medical history and a structured analysis of your symptoms.
Comprehensive Initial Consultation
- Course of symptoms and their timing in relation to meals
- Dietary habits
- Stress levels
- Previous medical conditions (e.g., irritable bowel syndrome, skin conditions, allergies)
- Susceptibility to infections and gut health
Gut health often plays a central role, particularly in the development and persistence of allergies.
Possible Naturopathic Treatment Approaches
Depending on the individual situation, the following methods may be used:
Frequency Therapy (Bioresonance)
Frequency therapy is the primary treatment approach used in my practice.
Phytotherapy
Herbal preparations to support digestion, mucous membranes, and the regulation of inflammatory processes.
Individual Nutritional Counseling
Structured elimination and reintroduction phases to identify triggers without unnecessary dietary restrictions.
Gut Restoration / Microbiome Support
Support of the gut microbiome and intestinal barrier to stabilize digestion and immune function.
Micronutrient Support
Assessment of possible deficiencies (e.g., vitamin D, zinc) as part of a holistic evaluation.
Mucosal and Barrier Support
Support of the intestinal mucosa and barrier function to help reduce increased permeability (the “leaky gut” concept in naturopathic understanding).
The therapy is individually tailored. No promises of cure are made.
Treatment Process
- Initial consultation: Analysis of your symptoms and definition of treatment goals.
- Planning: Individual nutrition and therapy plan.
- Implementation: Guided elimination and rebuilding phase.
- Follow-up: Adjustments and long-term stabilization.

Frequently Asked Questions About Atopic Dermatitis and Allergic Skin Reactions
What Is the Difference Between an Allergy and an Intolerance?
An allergy is mediated by the immune system. An intolerance is usually caused by enzyme deficiencies or functional disturbances.
Should I Completely Avoid Problematic Foods Immediately?
A structured approach is advisable to avoid unnecessary dietary restrictions.
How Long Does the Treatment Take?
The duration depends on the severity of symptoms, the number of triggers, and the condition of the gut.
Does Health Insurance Cover the Costs?
Private health insurance and supplementary insurance plans often cover part of the costs.
Patients with statutory health insurance usually have to pay for the treatment themselves.
Common Allergies in My Berlin Practice
Hay Fever & Pollen Allergy
Do you suffer from seasonal hay fever, watery eyes, or constant sneezing during spring and summer? A pollen or grass allergy can significantly reduce quality of life—especially in a large city like Berlin, where pollen levels can rise sharply during certain months each year.
House Dust & Pet Hair Allergies
Do you suffer from a blocked nose, frequent sneezing, itchy eyes, or recurring cough—especially indoors or when in contact with pets? A house dust or pet hair allergy (often triggered by mites or proteins from skin flakes) can significantly affect everyday life.
Atopic Dermatitis & Allergic Skin Reactions
Itching, redness, dry skin, or eczema can significantly affect everyday life. Atopic dermatitis and allergic skin reactions often occur in flare-ups and may be triggered or worsened by factors such as stress, diet, or environmental influences.
