Our program consist in the following therapies:
IV VITAMIN C THERAPY
In the 1970s Hugh D. Riordan, M.D. and his colleagues researched and implemented vitamin c therapy as an adjuvant to conventional cancer treatment. He noted in his research that patients with cancer were generally deficient in ascorbic acid and therefore had a reduced ability to induce tumor cytotoxicity, which is essentially cell death.
It was also clear that taking vitamin C orally, even in megadoses, did not increase its concentration in the blood sufficiently to initiate this cell destruction. For this reason, Riordan and his colleagues turned to intravenous administration of ascorbic acid.
Indeed, Riordan´s work led other oncologist to experiment with vitamin C in their practices.
One such oncologist, Victor Marcial, M.D., gave patients with advanced stage cancer between 40,000 and 75,000 milligrams intravenously several times a week. He reported that in the initial stages of the treatment 75% of his patients experienced a reduction in tumor size of at least 50 percent.
“As a radiation oncologist, i also give radiation therapy”, Riordan said. “Vitamin C has two effects. It increases the beneficial effects of radiation and chemotherapy and decreases the adverse effects. But this is not subtle effect, not 15 or 20 %. It´s a dramatic effect. Once you start using IV vitamin C, the effect is so dramatic that it´s difficult to go back to not using it.

B-17 (LEATRILE)
Amygdalin is also called Vitamin B17 and its semi synthetic product is laetrile, is a glycoside nutrient associated with cancer prevention in substitute medicine practices-and there are some claims that Amygdalin actually cured cancer.

IV OZONE
Ozone (O3) is a highly active formo f oxygen. This therapy brings elevated concentrations of oxygen into the blood atream. In this therapy, blood is taken out of the patient, oxygenated, then put directly back into the body. At thia point the new blood is fully oxygenated causing a loto f beneficial effects. The most important is replenishing oxygen to the body quickly

HOMOTOXICOLOGY AND BIOREGULATORY SYSTEMS MEDICINE (BrSM)
What is homotoxicology and in which way does it deviates from the conventional medical approach of the patient and his disease?
Homotoxicology, developed by the German doctor Hans-Heinrich Reckeweg, is the scientific concept behind antihomotoxic medicine. It is a different way of approaching the patient and his disease. The term Homotoxicology is derived from three words; “homo” meaning man, “toxico” derived from toxin or poison, and finally “logy”, derived from the Greek ‘logos’, meaning study.
To summarize, we can describe Homotoxicology as the study of the influence of toxic substances on humans.
In homotoxicology we study the way the presence of homotoxins will influence the functions of the cell and by this the function of the whole human organism. The reaction or rigidity of the defense mechanism against the homotoxin will define the clinical status the patient is in. Symptoms are an expression of the body’s effort to get away with the toxins. As the approach in homotoxicology remains clinical, research has been done on the mode of action of this type of medications.
Homotoxicology is very relied to conventional medicine and very acceptable for ‘open minded’ conventional medical doctors as the working mechanisms behind antihomotoxic medication can be explained in terms of the molecular biological models of this conventional medicine. On the other hand, and this in contrast to conventional medications, most antihomotoxic medications contain a micro doses or even nano doses of active components and are therefore non-toxic. Few side effects and contraindications, no interactions with other medications, safe and effective, classify homotoxicology to complementary ‘gentle’ medicine. In this way homotoxicology is building a bridge between both conventional and complementary medicine. The bridge refers to the strong conventional medical diagnosis and the gentle, non toxic treatment of complementary medicine.

IV HYDROGEN PEROXIDE
This is a type of ozone treatment. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is super abundant in oxygen. When administered intravenously it supplies this wealth of oxygen to the cancer cells. Since cancer thrives in an anaerobic state and does not do well in the presence of oxygen, the effect is to inhibit or destroy the cancer.
INSULIN POTENTIATION THERAPY (IPT)
Insulin Potentiation Therapy (IPT) is a simple medical procedure that uses the hormone insulin, followed by chemotherapy and glucose to make chemotherapy drugs, in smaller doses, more effective with few to no side effects. The Mexican doctor Perez Garcia, MD, was the first who noticed that insulin, when combined with certain medications and nutrients was useful for treating various health problems. He found that, when combined with low dose chemotherapy, insulin was very effective for treating cancer patients. In order to understand how IPT works, it is important to first explain the cancer cell physiology and compare it to that of normal cells. Cancer cells have six times more insulin receptors on the surface of their membranes than normal cells, and ten times as many IGF-1 factors, or Insulin growth Factor-1 receptors.

HYPERTHERMIA
Whole Body Hyperthermia
Raising the body temperature induces an artificial fever, thereby increasing blood Flow and oxygenating the body. This boost the immune system and helps detoxify the body, just like a normal fever does during sickness. Unlike normal cells, cancer cells cant´t tolerate heat, and many die. The principle is the same as a fever. Our immune system gives us a fever for the purpose of fighthing an infection because the high temperaturas kill the microbes, viruses, and bacteria while leaving our own cells damage. The patient´s body temperature is gradually raised to about 105 degrees Fahrenheit, this temperature is maintained for 1 hour, and then over the next hour the patient´s body temperature is brought back down to normal.
Local Hyperthermia
Applied as Superficial Hyperthermia for different types of skin cancer and skin metastasis of other primary tumors. Applied as Deep Hyperthermia for cancers which are deeply seated for instance in the mediastinum, praesacral area, liver, etc.
SONO-PHOTO DYNAMIC THERAPY
(SPDT)
Photo Dynamic Therapy
The principle of PDT is based on the use of two individually non-toxic components that are combined to induce cellular and tissue effects in an oxygen-dependent manner. The first component is the photosensitizer, a photosensitive molecule that has affinity to neoplastic cells. The second component is a light source (laser or light emitting diodes - LED), with specific wavelength which activates the photosensitizer. This drug then transfers the energy from light to molecular oxygen, generating reactive oxygen species (ROS). These reactions occur at sites of immediate accumulation of the photosensitizer that absorbed the light. Therefore, the biological responses are activated only in specific areas of the tissue that were exposed to light.
Sono Dynamic Therapy
The major difference between SDT and PDT is the energy source used to activate the sensitizers (ultrasound versus light). Due to the short penetration depth of light, PDT is not effective for the treatment of deepseated tumors. However, the significant advantage of SDT over PDT is that ultrasound can be tightly focused with penetration in soft tissue up to several tens of centimeters.

DETOX THERAPIES
Sono Dynamic Therapy
When a coffee enema is used, the caffeine from the coffee is absorbed and goes directly to the liver where it becomes a very strong detoxifier by causing the liver to produce more bile. That in turn moves toxins out toward the small intestine for elimination. This frees up the liver to help process more incoming toxic materials that have accumulated in the organs, tissues and blood streams and eliminate them as well. The coffee contains some alkaloids that also stimulate the production of glutathione-S-Transferase, an enzyme used by the liver to make the detox pathways run.
Rectal Insufflation
The rectal administration of ozone is one of the oldest systemic and local forms of application. The biological effects of the Rectal Insufflations of Ozone (RIO3) has been demonstrated extensively either experimentally or clinically. Furthermore, preclinical studies demonstrated its low toxicity.
The gas is quickly dissolved in the luminal contents of the bowel, where mucoproteins and other secretory products with antioxidant activity readily react with ozone to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lipid peroxidation products. These compounds penetrate the muscular mucosa and enter the circulation of venous and lymphatic capillaries.
Lymphatic Drainage Massage
The fluid in the lymphatic system helps remove waste and toxins from the bodily tissues. Some health conditions can cause lymph fluid to build up. Lymphatic drainage massages can benefit people with lymphedema, fibromyalgia, and other conditions.
Lymphatic drainage massage can benefit people who are experiencing: lymphedema, fibromyalgia, swelling or edema, skin disorders, fatigue, insomnia, stress, digestive problems, arthritis, migraine episodes.
OXYGENATION THERAPIES
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)
HBOT delivers 100 % pure oxygen to you through increased atmospheric pressure in an enclosed chamber. When oxygen is delivered at higher tan normal pressure, your body is able to absorb more of it into your blood cells, blood plasma, cerebral-spinal fluid, and other bodyli fluids.
Once in the chamber, your body responds by reducing inflammation, which in turn increases blood Flow to oxygen-deprived areas.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy also:
- Saturates your body with oxygen (including the plasma and White cells)
- Increases your oxygen level by 20 to 30 percent
- Increases your ability to fight infections
- Creates new capillaries ind increases blood Flow
- Clears and deactivates toxins and metabolic waste
- Stimulates your body to create new blood cells
- Increases your stem cell production
- Accelerates your rate of healing
