Clinical Psychoneuroimmunology (PNIc) is a field that studies the relationship between body, mind, and life context, helping to understand in greater depth the factors that influence health status.

Instead of just looking at the isolated symptom, Psycho-Neuro-Immunology (PNI) seeks to understand the underlying mechanisms of the body's imbalances, considering the interaction between physical, emotional, and behavioural factors.

O que é a Psiconeuroimunologia Clínica

Clinical Psychoneuroimmunology studies the interaction between the nervous, immune, endocrine, and psychological systems. It is based on the principle that factors such as stress, sleep, diet, emotions, and lifestyle have a direct impact on physiology and how the body adapts over time.

By integrating knowledge from fields such as psychology, biology, nutrition, and physical exercise, PNIc allows for the creation of strategies tailored to each person's reality, with a focus on a holistic understanding of health.

Who might this approach make sense for?

Clinical Psychoneuroimmunology can be recommended for those looking to better understand their health in an integrated way, considering body, mind, and life context.

It can be particularly useful in situations such as:

• Persistent difficulties with sleep or rest
• Recurrent digestive discomfort
• Prolonged pain or a feeling of bodily tension
• Stress, anxiety or a constant feeling of being overwhelmed
• Fatigue, lack of energy or difficulty recovering
• Feeling of low resistance or increased vulnerability to illness

This approach can make sense for those who feel their body is sending signs of imbalance and wish to understand how daily habits, lifestyle pace, and emotional state influence their health.

How does the PNIc consultation work?

During the first consultation, a detailed assessment of your medical history, lifestyle habits, and relevant emotional factors is carried out, with the aim of understanding your overall context and the possible origins of any imbalances.

Based on this information, an individualised plan is defined, tailored to the needs, pace and reality of each person.

Throughout the follow-up, the plan is reviewed and adjusted whenever necessary, gradually and consciously integrating different strategies.

A different way of looking at health

Clinical Psychoneuroimmunology proposes a broader perspective on health, focusing on the integration of the body's systems and understanding causes, rather than an approach solely focused on symptoms.

At Integrativa, this approach is used as part of a conscious, informed, and responsible follow-up, respecting the individuality and journey of each person.
