Praxis Marc Benninghaus

It is a roughly 10-minute diagnostic done with two electronic hand sensors. It combines five techniques (ECG, heart rate variability, capacitive measurement, bio-impedance analysis and frequency pattern analysis) to give an overview of biological age, energy level, stress index, metabolic activity, oxidative stress and immune status. It costs about 160 euros as a self-pay (IGeL) service.

The base check covers a medical history, physical examination, blood work, blood pressure measurement, a resting ECG, urinalysis, and ultrasound of the abdomen, thyroid and carotid arteries. An individual risk profile is assessed, and further optional examinations may be recommended. The first appointment requires fasting for at least 8 hours (water is allowed).

It is a private practice (Privatpraxis) for self-payers. Some services such as the Bio-Vital-Scan are IGeL self-pay services, though private insurers may reimburse them with a medical indication.

It is at Marktstätte 7, 78462 Konstanz, in the central Marktstätte area by Lake Constance. Consulting hours are Monday to Friday 8:00 to 12:00 and by appointment; the practice can be reached by phone Monday to Friday 8:00 to 17:00.

Alongside conventional care it offers holistic therapies including acupuncture, osteopathy, chirotherapy, the Emmett technique, naturopathy and vitamin and nutrient infusions, as well as sports and orthopaedic assessments such as posture analysis and sports fitness exams.
