Immune Stimulation Therapy
What is Immune Stimulation Therapy?
Your immune system can be suppressed and weakend from chronic stress, poor nutrition, specific nutritional deficiencies, over-exercise, hormonal imbalance, and chronic infections. Immune stimulation therapy is the process of discovering how and why your immunity is weakend, and treating those causes through whatever means is needed.
For example, patients often present with chronic recurrent sinusitis or bronchitis. Inspite of taking multiple courses different antibiotics, the infections linger and return to full force as soon as the prescription runs out. These patients often need an intravenous boost of immune supporting nutrients to climb out of their illness, along with botanical and other supportive measures to maintain their immunity and prevent further infections.
