The Europe Parking, Claramatte and Onepark car parks are in the immediate vicinity.

Dark, wet and cold: good conditions for falling into the "winter blues".
How can we better cope with the dark months?
To counteract the winter blues, it is good to understand why this can occur in the first place. When sunlight hits our skin and eyes, it stimulates the production of serotonin. This is both a hormone and a neurotransmitter. Serotonin is sometimes colloquially referred to as the "happiness hormone". It helps regulate mood, appetite, sleep, social behavior and much more. Since we have less natural daylight in the autumn and winter, the human body produces less serotonin and more melatonin, colloquially known as the "sleep hormone". This ratio can affect your mood.
Since the main reason for this is the lack of light, it is advisable to spend longer periods of time outdoors. Perhaps you can plan a daily walk. Light therapy (10,000 lux for half an hour) can also provide relief. Sport and physical exercise can also have a positive effect on your mood. Make sure you have a good sleep rhythm and give yourself enough rest.
The little joys in life make the winter seem shorter: meeting up with friends, visiting a cozy café, watching a good film, enjoying a beautiful winter landscape or a warming cup of hot chocolate. Cocoa has both an anti-inflammatory effect and a positive effect on your mood. Cardamom is also considered a mood enhancer. Due to its sweet and spicy taste, cardamom is versatile and suitable as an ingredient in sweet and salty dishes.
Do you need immediate psychological help? You can get support in the acute outpatient clinic of the UPK Basel without prior appointment (Kornhausgasse 7, 4051 Basel).
The Claravita team wishes you a good winter!
Many diseases can be detected early and treated effectively through preventive examinations. Therefore, under certain circumstances, it may be advisable to have a screening or check-up with your family doctor, even without acute symptoms.
A check-up includes a review of your personal medical history, a physical examination by your family doctor, laboratory tests, and, if necessary, further examinations.
The specific tests performed in your specific case depend on the following factors, among others:
Would you like to know whether a check-up would be beneficial for you?
We would be happy to offer you an appointment for a personal preliminary consultation at the Claravita practice. We look forward to hearing from you!
Every year again: The temperatures drop and the flu waves spread. Whether on the tram or in the office, people are coughing and sneezing. This is how you can protect yourself:
There is a safe and effective vaccination to prevent the flu virus.
Would you like to get vaccinated? Please contact us at the Claravita practice. We can carry out the vaccination directly in our practice.
Additional protective measures
A healthy lifestyle helps to strengthen the immune system. This includes a balanced diet, plenty of exercise, fresh air, sunlight and enough sleep.

Iron is an essential mineral that is necessary for the formation of hemoglobin, which transports oxygen in the blood. A deficiency can lead to anemia, which causes fatigue and weakness. Iron also plays an important role in energy metabolism and supports the immune system.
Good sources of iron are red meat, poultry, fish, legumes, spinach, nuts and whole grain products. To increase iron intake, these foods should be combined with foods containing vitamin C, as these improve the absorption of iron. This keeps our body vital and full of energy, ready to master the challenges of life.
Iron-rich menu ideas: lentil salad with mango and avocado, chickpeas "Sweet & Sour", wok with vegetables and beef, chicken wraps.
Would you like to have your iron levels checked? Please contact us for a check.
The Claravita team wishes you Bon appetit while eating and trying out the menu ideas!
