Chronic tiredness, also known as fatigue, manifests itself in a cycle of exhaustion, tiredness, lack of concentration, lack of energy, declining performance and avoidance of exertion. This condition can lead to a lack of regeneration, inactivity and helplessness, and often results in depression. Those affected experience the syndrome as a long-lasting burden, as they do not experience sufficient recovery despite extensive sleep. We have effective methods at our disposal to sustainably improve the lives of those affected.

Symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome

  • Physical fatigue: this manifests itself in reduced performance and an increased need for sleep without any noticeable recovery
  • Mental exhaustion and concentration problems: impaired attention and mental fatigue
  • Emotional exhaustion and listlessness: feelings of hopelessness, helplessness and dejection
