Supplementary air brings a
breath of fresh air for practices offering individual healthcare
services
Revolutionary service for
self-paying patients receives approval from BDI.
After efficacy, one of
the most important criteria in the choice of individual healthcare
services is cost-effectiveness. With the current savings being
implemented across the healthcare system, individual healthcare
services (known as IGeL services in Germany) are becoming more
and more important for registered doctors. With the publication
of a new expert opinion by a working group of the BDI (Professional
Association of German Internists) looking into the Uniform Value
Scale and Catalogue of Tariffs for Physicians, practising doctors
offering the supplementary air treatment AIRNERGY can now increase
their earnings treatment by around 40 per cent.
In recent years respiratory
air therapy has established a growing reputation in medicine,
sport and among a great many private users. Nowadays the term
supplementary air treatment is used to define this therapy and
it too has become established as an individual healthcare service.

AIRNERGY would be cost-effective in your own practice.
In introducing the supplementary
air treatment AIRNERGY, the Hennef-based firm of natural energy
solutions AG has set new standards in complementary medicine.
Advocates of the treatment include Dr. Wolfgang Grebe, specialist
in internal medicine, Dr. med. Klaus Erpenbach, general practitioner
and urologist, Dr. Elmar Wienecke, sports scientist, Balbir Singh,
Formula 1 physiotherapist, plus healthcare and social policy
politicians Norbert Bluem and Rudolf Dressler, and they have
all been enthusiastic users of this type of energy filling station
for some time. The reasons are clear, for supplementary air treatment
helps balance out deficiencies that have been shown scientifically
to exist in the organism. In concrete terms this means that AIRNERGY
helps improve the body's capacity for oxygen utilisation in cells
which in turn helps improve performance, powers of concentration,
regeneration and general well being.
Besides these clinical
advantages, the respiratory air therapy has plenty to interest
the practising doctor from a financial point of view too. Apart
from the expert opinion produced by the BDI, the Chairman of
the Hesse regional group in the BDI, Dr. Wolfgang Grebe, sees
supplementary air treatment as an effective, serious and economic
individual healthcare service which will help registered doctors
safeguard the future of their practices and the quality of the
care they offer patients. He himself offers the treatment in
his own practice and is happy to recommend it to others.
