What is leech therapy?
Leech therapy is a form of medical treatment that dates back to Ancient Egypt and has been used to treat an extensive list of ailments over the centuries. The treatments work on the principle that leeches will suck the blood from a wound while secreting a complex biological mixture predominantly composed of the Hirudin substance. The saliva also contains the following naturally occurring bioactive chemicals, including;
- An anaesthetic,
- Anti-inflammatories,
- Anti-coagulants,
- Anti-edematous,
- Bacteriostatics,
- Vasodilators.
The natural procedure can, therefore, remove clotted blood to help the blood flow resume in a natural fashion while simultaneously preventing tissue death. When combined with the pain relief elements and ability to stop bacterial reproduction, it can be a very useful solution to bypass various operations.
When completed by a licensed therapist, like Titsian Zavatzki, leech therapy is one of the fastest and most effective solutions for men and women in Milton Keynes and surrounding areas.
How will leech therapy benefit me?
Thanks to the increased blood flow, as well as the anaesthetic and anti-inflammatory properties, patients can experience a wide range of benefits when using leech therapy. The list of immediate and ongoing rewards includes, but is not limited to;
- Pain relief,
- Improved range of movement,
- Faster wound healing,
- Increased energy,
- Better mental wellbeing.
While leech therapy is virtually guaranteed to improve your quality of life, it can deliver different levels of improvement from one person to the next, which is why a full analysis and dedicated service is required.
