How does FACEFORMER® therapy work?

Cause therapy instead of symptom treatment

FACEFORMER therapy is a cause-oriented treatment method. This makes it different from many medical therapy methods that primarily try to alleviate the patient’s symptoms. FACEFORMER Therapy takes a completely different approach. It tackles disorders of health and well-being where they are caused. By eliminating the root cause of the disorder, the symptoms and discomfort caused by it disappear permanently in a natural way.

Symptom treatment or cause therapy

What’s the difference?

Causal therapy

Cause therapies target the actual trigger of health impairments. The direct treatment at the source of the problem eliminates the disorders caused by it in a sustainable way. With improvement of the actual cause of the disease, the associated complaints also disappear.

Symptomatic treatment

In pure symptom therapies, the causal relationship between the disease trigger and its effects on health is usually hardly considered. Accordingly, the effect of such measures is usually limited and short-lived. Often the symptoms return even more severely than before or completely new complaints appear.

FACEFORMER® Therapy – Focus on Breathing and Swallowing

Human life is not possible without breathing and swallowing. We need nothing more for life than breathing air and food. In a normal, healthy state, breathing and swallowing occur almost unnoticed and without effort, as if by themselves. We often only notice how indispensable these essential bodily functions are for us when they are impaired. Even minor disturbances in the processes therefore almost inevitably cause a multitude of diseases and disorders in a wide variety of manifestations. Affected persons usually suffer for life from symptoms resulting from the impairment of these basic functions. For the lasting success of a treatment, it is of crucial importance that it is directly directed against the actual cause of the disease. FACEFORMER therapy focuses on the immediate causes of disorders in breathing and swallowing. It trains the basic natural functions through an easy-to-perform exercise program.

FACEFORMER® Therapy

Essential features

Cause-oriented treatment method
Reduction of symptoms through treatment of causes
Correction of faulty sequence of elementary basic functions

Exercise therapy based on neuroscientific principles
Stimulation of brain messengers and nerve functions
Restoration of natural movements and postures

Correcting faulty sequences

FACEFORMER Therapy corrects faulty functional sequences and damaging postures through a systematic exercise program. With simple exercises, the correct interaction of movement and posture is sustainably trained and neurally fixed. In many cases, these natural processes are lost early in life.

Eliminating symptoms at their source

Systematic training of these basic processes of breathing and swallowing, with sufficient repetition, gradually restores the natural processes as far as possible. With the elimination of the actual cause of the disorder, the associated symptoms are gradually alleviated and reduced until they disappear completely.
