Immune system & pathogen control
- The immune system is an incredibly complex and finely tuned network. It comprises various organs and over 30 types of cells, all working together to defend the body against harmful invaders and cancer cells while avoiding self-harm through autoimmunity.
- However, some viruses, bacteria, and fungi have evolved sophisticated ways to evade and even manipulate the immune system. One example is chronic Lyme disease, a complex microbial imbalance caused by Borrelia spirochetes. Another widespread issue is chronic post-COVID syndrome, often linked to reactivated Epstein-Barr virus. Additionally, conditions like leaky gut syndrome—an inflammatory disorder caused by microbiome-immune imbalance in the small intestine—further strain immune function. Compounding this burden is the ever-growing presence of autoantibodies in the bloodstream, leading to autoimmune diseases such as lupus, psoriasis, allergies, and other inflammatory skin conditions.
- In short, our immune system needs a break!
- Our immune system program begins with a detailed live blood analysis (LBA) using high-resolution phase-contrast and dark-field microscopy. This allows us to examine the functionality of red and white blood cells and platelets, as well as detect various bacterial and fungal pathogens present in the bloodstream.
- We utilize a combination of biophysical and holistic therapies to restore andactivate immune function, including:
- Electric lymphatic drainage – stimulates lymphoid organs for detoxification
- Peloid therapy – provides rare minerals for immune balance
- Light, PEMF, ozone, and laser therapies – activate specific immune pathways
- By balancing innate and adaptive immunity, we help:
- Prevent immune suppression under stress and chronic fatigue
- Regulate cellular and humoral immunity in autoimmune disorders
- Improve lymphatic and blood circulation
- Alleviate autoimmune symptoms
- Boost energy levels and vitality
- Our approach offers a natural yet powerful way to reset the immune system and enhance overall well-being.
