Kids Health Group - 2024

The idea behind the Kids Health Group is to tackle the challenge of childhood obesity with a mix of fun, education, and community. Through our innovative programs, which include cooking classes, shared shopping experiences, outdoor sports, and a hotel-like environment, we offer children a unique and BAR-certified experience. Our goal is not only to reduce body weight but also to promote a healthy lifestyle that motivates children in the long term and enhances their well-being.

Under the guidance of professionals who not only think innovatively in their field but also possess extensive expertise, the facilities of the Kids Health Group are characterized by a wide range of services.

A key component of our concept is the inclusion of families in the treatment process. Therefore, all facilities of the Kids Health Group are designed to fully integrate accompanying persons. With our special program for parents, we aim to provide support not only to the children but to the entire family, offering solutions that extend beyond immediate treatment. Our commitment is to holistic care that encompasses both the physical and mental health of the children and their relatives.

The time in the rehabilitation facility of the Kids Health Group offers a comprehensive and transformative experience for both the children and their families. A key component of the program is the identification of situations that trigger strong urges to eat, such as stress, frustration, or boredom. The goal is to train the children to develop and apply alternative behaviors to these triggers.

Another important aspect is learning methods for stress management and relaxation. Through targeted techniques and exercises, children are empowered to handle everyday challenges in a healthier way without resorting to eating behaviors as a coping strategy.

The teaching kitchen for nutritional therapy is a central place for learning and community. Here, children cook in small groups, allowing them to not only acquire practical skills in preparing healthy meals but also discover the joy of cooking and the value of a balanced diet.

Movement therapy and a diverse sports program are also integral parts of the rehab. These offerings are designed to instill a love of movement in children and motivate them towards a more active lifestyle. Whether through team sports, swimming, or yoga, the children experience the positive effects of regular physical activity on their physical and mental well-being.

If needed, psychological counseling is available to the children. This aims to help them overcome individual psychological barriers and supports them in their personal development.

Another important pillar of the program is coaching for parents. Through targeted training and counseling, parents are supported in promoting and guiding their children as best as possible even after their stay in rehab. They learn how to create a supportive and health-promoting environment at home to ensure the long-term effectiveness of rehabilitation.

Overall, the time in rehab at the Kids Health Group provides holistic and sustainable support that helps children and their families lead healthier and more fulfilling lives.

The time after rehabilitation marks a crucial phase in the ongoing care and support of children and adolescents suffering from obesity. To facilitate the transition back into everyday life and to ensure the long-term success of the progress made, the Kids Health Group employs a forward-looking therapy method: gamification. This approach combines playful learning with the use of cutting-edge technologies, such as the LÜ-Interactive Playground, seamlessly integrating digitalization into the therapeutic approach.

By applying gamification elements, such as reward systems and progress indicators, the motivation of the young patients is significantly increased. These elements make the healing process not only more transparent but also considerably more appealing to children and adolescents. They can track their own progress in real-time and receive immediate feedback by achieving goals and unlocking new levels or challenges. This fosters a positive and motivating environment that encourages children to actively work on their own health.

A key advantage of this method is that therapy does not end with the conclusion of the rehab stay.

By combining gamification with continuous support through digital technologies, the Kids Health Group offers an innovative and effective way to help children and adolescents solidify the behaviors and routines learned during rehab in their daily lives. This lays a solid foundation for a healthy and active life, allowing the young patients to benefit from the successes achieved in the long term.
