Families of people suffering from dementia carry a heavy load and are often at risk of becoming physically or mentally ill themselves. Over 50% of family members providing nursing care report a high level of stress that affects their quality of life. In geriatric psychiatry, families often contribute to the challenging behaviour of the patient because of their pre-existing dysfunctional communication, behaviour patterns and family history, while at the same time they are only minimally able to accept external help. This further hinders cooperation with professional caregivers. In this article, the authors examine what the family members of persons suffering from dementia need in order to be able to accept professional help, while at the same time making a positive contribution as family members providing nursing care. The authors describe how to use integrative systems therapy and family-focused care to evaluate family systems and derive need-based, interprofessional intervention from these. A first step is system diagnosis. The assumption that the patient should not be viewed as separate from their family environment, but that the patient/ family environment should be considered as an entity, is crucial. Full article

We introduce and present a medical psychotherapeutic technique initiated by Wilhelm Reich in the 1920's and thereafter expanded and refined with essential contributions by Elsworth Baker among others. We outline its theory and technical foundations and also provide an epistemological interpretation of its peculiar body-mind representation based on character- and muscular armoring as a reaction to suffering; armoring of the ocular segment in the aetiology of Bleuler's schizophrenic splitting; and finally the consequences of armoring on the energetic functions as the logical development of Freud's theory of libido, with significant theoretic, therapeutic and nosologic consequences.
