A sports medical examination is advisable for anyone who regularly takes part in sport or wants to start training. Professional, competitive and ambitious amateur athletes should have regular sports medical examinations to check their physical condition and performance. However, recreational athletes and people who want to maintain a healthy lifestyle can also benefit from a sports medical examination in order to prevent possible health risks

Even after serious illnesses, e.g. heart disease and cancer, there is often uncertainty about sporting activity. With our many years of expertise in this area, we will be happy to advise you individually on how to (re)start sport in such situations.

Many statutory health insurance companies subsidise or cover the costs of a sports medical examination as part of their supplementary benefits. In all other cases, we offer examinations on a self-pay basis. Talk to us!

In the case of illnesses or injuries, we are happy to work on referral. To make an appointment, please call 0731 500-45350 or 0731 500-45300.

Since we take a lot of time for the individual consultation and careful examination of our patients and athletes, we ask you to plan about 2.5 to 3 hours for your appointment with us.

Lactate is a product of the energy metabolism that is formed to a greater extent during high physical exertion. It can be used to objectively assess the intensity of exercise. Training zones for endurance training can be derived from this. We offer sport-specific diagnostics on the treadmill or cycle, rowing and hand power ergometers. The success of the training can also be assessed by means of a lactate test.

Whether a lactate test or another examination method (e.g. spiroergometry) is more suitable depends in particular on the question being asked and your state of health. We will be happy to discuss this in an individual consultation.
