Biopuncture

Generally these injections of homeopathic solution are dilute micro-doses of plant or mineral extracts, given intramuscularly in one small injection site. One injection intramuscularly has a systemic effect on the entire body. For more localized areas, multiple small injections can be done in the affected area for conditions such as an acute sprained ankle or frozen shoulder. Their application in the area of immune enhancement and pain reduction is paramount.

Once our patients try these simple intramuscular injections, they often request them because of their dramatic results. For example, many patients with arthritis do not want to take daily medications. After 4-6 weekly injections, they may have one per month to keep their pain level significantly reduced or completely pain-free.

Respiratory rate, blood pressure, heartbeat, glucose level, are only a few examples of subtle autoregulating systems. Each of these autoregulating systems has a set point and a set point margin, where in between, the regulating process fluctuates to maintain homeostasis. It is the objective of Bioregulatory Medicine to restore the normal functioning of these autoregulating systems.

Only biotherapeutics in injection form are applied in Biopuncture. The characteristics of the medications used are:

• They have bioregulatory characteristics
• The molecular concentrations of the constituents used have no toxic, suppressive or substitutional value. We may state that these biotherapeutic medications are low-dose or even ultra-low-dose medications compared to medications used in conventional medicine.
• They are manufactured according to stringent guidelines in good manufacturing practice (GMP) and are by definition sterile and free of pathogens.

The injection sites can be divided into two main types of injection groups: treatment zone injections, also termed local injections, and distant injections. Local injections are given in the pain zone or the reflex zone. Distant injections are given at locations distant from the painful region e.g. in trigger points.

The Biopuncture injection therapy is well defined and differs in application from conventional injection treatments, although conventional diagnostic methodology remains the same. The functional examination is based on a more advanced physical examination. Both the physical and functional examination influences the therapy approach, which may differ from a conventional medical approach.

Biopuncture is a safe injection therapy applying a standardized technique that allows a quick assessment of the patient.

This novel therapeutic tool is

• simple
• reproducible
• clinically effective
• non-surgical
• non-invasive
• cost-effective

Biopuncture has minimal side effects, and almost no systemic absorption.

Biopuncture is a specific injection method, clearly differentiated from other injection methods applied in medical practice (such as neural therapy, mesotherapy, prolotherapy, and numerous others).

Its boundaries are well defined in the technique of injection, the site of injection, and type of medications used. Although specific examination techniques are used, especially in musculoskeletal complaints, Biopuncture is based on a conventional and an additional functional diagnosis.

It is important to remember that no one-treatment procedure will fix all problems. The most success is usually obtained if one combines numerous different treatment modalities. For this reason, we recommend that all patients undergo a thorough Health Renewal consultation, where all underlying abnormalities can be identified and treated with the necessary lifestyle changes, nutraceuticals and medication if needed. If indicated, Biopuncture will always form part of this treatment plan.

• Gut
• Menopause
• Adrenals – stress
• Acne (body and Face)
• Rosacea
• Cellulite
• Fat reduction
• Viral infection
• Sinusitis
• Tonsillitis
• Bronchitis/ Trachitis/Asthma
• Pain Management
• Chronic myofascial pain syndrome
• Lower back pain
• Knee injuries
• Ankle injuries
• Arthritis
• TMJ
• Carpal Tunnel
• Sciatic Neuralgia
• Sport bomb
• Adrenal fatigue
• Mental boost
• Diabetes
• Infertility
• Dermatitis
• Perioral Dermatitis

In conventional medicine, the drug you take suppresses your symptoms immediately. That is why you need to take high doses in order to suppress, for example, pain or inflammation. And usually, it works immediately. But as soon as the medication stops working, you have to take another pill to "kill the pain" again.

However, in Biopuncture small doses of products are injected in order to stimulate the natural healing processes. These ultra-low doses "wake up" mechanisms, which are available anyway. So, the healing effect comes from "inside" your body-not from the products themselves. It's the reaction of your immune system, which will produce the proper reactions to regain natural healing. The reaction of your body may be, for example, better local blood circulation, tissue repair, and relaxation of muscles or local detoxification. During the reparation of tissue, your body is even more vulnerable and it is a good idea at this stage not to overuse the part, which is treated because it is still in the process of repair.
