Locoregional hyperthermia therapy is a, compared to whole-body hyperthermia, more gentle hyperthermia therapy of the tumors of cancer patients, in which cancer cells can be destroyed by exposure to heat. In modern oncology (science that deals with cancer), hyperthermia is usually not used alone, but in combination with radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy. Mechanisms of action of … Local Hyperthermia
Mistletoe therapy is a natural healing method or a method of phytotherapy that goes back to the founder of anthroposophy (Greek anthropos. Man; sophia: wisdom; special spiritual worldview) Rudolf Steiner goes back. He introduced mistletoe preparations as cancer therapeutics. Today mistletoe therapy is used primarily in complementary oncology (accompanying, alternative cancer treatment) as an immune … Mistletoe Therapy
Oxygen multistep therapy (SMT) was developed by the physicist Prof. Dr. Manfred von Adrenne and belongs to oxygen therapy, which in turn is a branch of complementary medicine. It is based on the assumption that both circulatory disorders and oxygen deficiency states can be countered by increasing the partial pressure of oxygen (the partial pressure … Multistep Oxygen Therapy
Thymus therapy is an alternative medical procedure for immune modulation. This is understood as a treatment with thymus peptides or thymus factors to strengthen the body’s own defense system. Thymus therapy is a so-called organotherapy and thymus extracts belong to organotherapeutics, the production of which is subject to the Medicines Act. Indications (areas of application) … Thymus Therapy
Biological Electro-Tumor Therapy (synonym: Galvanotherapy; Electro-Cancer Therapy (ECT)) is a gentle direct current therapy of cancer patients in which cancer cells are directly destroyed by exposure to electricity via plates on the skin or platinum needles in the tumor. Indications (areas of application) Localized and advanced breast carcinoma (breast cancer) growing beyond the breast and … Biological Electro-Tumor Therapy (Galvanotherapy)
Systemic enzyme therapy is a therapeutic procedure based on the oral administration of animal and plant hydrolytic enzymes. These enzymes are proteases that, as so-called biocatalysts, can cleave proteins (protein) at defined sites or decisively influence chemical reactions. Systemic enzyme therapy must be distinguished from substitutive enzyme therapy, which replaces missing enzymes, e.g. in the … Enzyme Therapy
Fever therapy is a procedure by which the patient’s body actively produces a fever. This is done by introducing pyrogenic substances (substances that cause fever) iatrogenically (performed by a physician) into the body. The procedure is also referred to as active hyperthermia and contrasts with passive hyperthermia, which causes an increase in body temperature through … Fever Therapy
Hyperthermia therapy (GKHT; whole-body hyperthermia) is a hyperthermia therapy of cancer patients in which cancer cells are destroyed by exposure to heat. Mechanisms of action of hyperthermia (HT) The effect of hyperthermia therapy is essentially based on a direct hyperthermic cytotoxicity (” property to act as a cell toxin “. Furthermore, the procedure is used … Whole Body Hyperthermia
