The effects on the body and organs are a result of a combination of multiple properties of the medicinal leech saliva, including anticoagulation effects, thrombolytic effects, anti-inflammatory effects, immunomodulation effects, and lymphotropic effects. These properties work together to thin the blood, improve circulation and lymphatic drainage, reduce inflammation and pain, and restore normal immune function.
The best part? Up to 90% of human ailments and pathology can be successfully treated with hirudotherapy. It's a safe, natural, and effective way to promote healing and restore balance in the body.
Of course, we always encourage patients to continue working with their primary medical team of practitioners. Hirudotherapy should not be used as the ONLY medical intervention. But for those seeking a holistic, natural approach to healing, hirudotherapy may be just the solution they've been looking for.
