Results of our deep and stimulating approach to immunity, post-Covid and beyond
For Clinique La Prairie’s doctors, it is interesting to observe the current health state of the guests who come or return for a stay at the clinic. This allows them to assess immunity brought by the benefits of the clinic's programs, especially the Revitalisation program.
Our Medical Director, Dr Adrian Heini, shares his insight and expertise on the personal health journeys of the guests. Many of them show resilience to viruses, and in particular Covid-19, when several members of their family and those around them have been diagnosed positive and have sometimes suffered from serious effects of the disease.
Other guests were affected by the virus and reported having mild symptoms and recovering well from the disease. Among them are patients with pathologies such as cardiovascular, respiratory or diabetes problems, and older patients.
Clinique La Prairie's programs and medical evaluations also address the needs of those who suffer from the symptoms of what is known as “long Covid”, which includes fatigue and respiratory problems that persist for several months after contracting Covid-19. According to medical surveys across the globe, these persistent post-Covid symptoms may also include heart palpitations, chest pain or tightness, issues with memory and concentration, joint pain and numerous other symptoms affecting multiple organ systems.
Revitalisation is a prevention program that can help you fight viruses better, strengthen your immune system, avoid serious long-term consequences, and recover better. Revitalisation is therefore also indicated as a support in the post-Covid context. It is essential for a person who has had the virus to rebuild their immune system. Revitalisation does not only help stimulate the natural defenses but can help you to be resistant to possible future diseases as we are confronted with viruses and bacteria in our everyday life.
Dr Heini explains, “Our scientific and medical expertise gives us the hindsight to say that Revitalisation helps stimulate the innate part of the immunity that is nonspecific, which produces antibodies against a virus or bacteria. Indeed, to be effective in the fight against a virus or bacteria, we need two aspects: the specific part by the neutralization of the antibodies (called humoral immune response, at the origin of the production of the antibodies), and the non-specific part also called the cellular system (this is the production of cells that phagocytize viruses and bacteria). The various elements of the Revitalisation program contribute to this overall immuno-cellular stimulation; the cellular immune response is therefore reinforced. In the current context, which may also include vaccines, our bodies can activate antibodies, but they may not be enough on their own. The immune system needs to be at its best”.
Taking care of your immunity, health and wellbeing is an ongoing process. This is why the Revitalisation program can be recommended every year to support the strengthening of your immune system. Diagnosing exactly what a client needs through a combined medical and holistic approach is central to what we do. From a medical standpoint, nine decades of medical science and clinical experience have given us confidence that our Holistic Longevity Method is proven to help people live healthier, fuller and longer lives.
Learn more from guests who have experienced Revitalisation
Mr and Mrs de Matos, from Brazil, have been staying at Clinique La Prairie for the Revitalisation week for their 3rd time this year.
Why did you choose the Revitalisation program?
Mrs de Matos: “I have an illness which resulted in me suffering from pulmonary fibrosis. I heard about Revitalisation at Clinique La Prairie, and I wanted to give it a try. I was seduced by the beneficial effects as my pulmonary fibrosis has stabilized and calmed down. I take natural biologics and immunoglobins to cure my fibrosis, but the results take several months. After my Revitalisation stay, I noticed a big improvement. The effects last longer over time, and I feel a real stabilization of the disease. Before, I had tried many different treatments. For the past year, I absolutely wanted to come back, because I felt I needed it and I want to do it regularly.”
Mr de Matos Silva: “My ambition is to live to be 120 years old, and I am looking for the right treatments to get there. I take a lot of dietary supplements and exercise every day. I even have several coaches; I also exercise to improve my memory and work on managing my emotions. And as part of my longevity planning, I have included coming to Clinique La Prairie regularly for the Revitalisation program. It gives me real energy stability.”
