Unfortunately, 30% of people on the planet are already familiar with varicose veins. The main manifestation of the disease is dilated veins in the legs. In youth, such symptoms practically do not bother. Women often consider varicose veins as a cosmetic problem, and instead of treatment they prefer to wear trousers that mask an ugly defect.
Ignoring the disease with age leads to serious complications, which, unfortunately, require surgical intervention. However, if treatment is started on time, serious complications can be avoided. The use of apitherapy (in this case, the treatment of varicose veins with bees) can not only get rid of the symptoms of the disease, but also avoid surgery. There are known facts when advanced cases of varicose veins, in which official medicine recommended only surgical removal of vein sections, were eliminated with the help of apitherapy.
Miracle Treatment: Apitherapy
The word is derived from the Latin "bee", translated as "treatment with bees." The methods used in apitherapy are really built on the use of beekeeping products. The main healing components include honey, pollen, royal jelly and propolis, dead beeswax, wax, bee bread and, of course, bee venom. Healing products produced by hardworking insects are the basic components of ointments, tinctures, tablets. Apreparations are widespread and are used in combination with bee stinging.
At its core, a bee is a kind of disposable syringe with a unique medicine. According to the therapeutic potential, there are no analogues to it. Bee venom has a positive effect on most body systems, significantly enhances immunity. Apitherapy for varicose veins provides excellent results. Bee venom, entering the body, acts as a powerful catalyst for physiological processes.
Numerous developments with special schemes and tables were the basis of apitherapy. With their help, the most successful treatment of varicose veins is carried out by bees. Reviews of people who have experienced such therapy on themselves will not give an opportunity to doubt the excellent results.
Great benefit
Bee venom is a very complex chemical compound that contains fifty different substances. But the main treatment components are peptides. Their various compounds are able to anesthetize more efficiently than opium, tone the nervous system and stabilize the cardiovascular system.
A huge advantage of bee venom is its naturalness. It has no dyes, chemical components, harmful additives. Unlike any medications that have side effects, bee venom is extremely beneficial. Indeed, not a single “chemistry” is able to replace the healing power presented by nature.
But the most important factor due to which complete cure is achieved is the unique ability to influence the cause, not the effect. For example, with a disease such as varicose veins, treatment begins with the circulatory system. And the symptoms go away over time. Bee venom has a positive effect on the blood-forming organs, improves blood composition and helps to thin it. It perfectly strengthens the walls of blood vessels, which makes it possible to use apitherapy not only for the treatment of varicose veins, but also with more serious consequences that appear in advanced cases.
However, you must carefully use this method. In order not to harm your health, you need to know exactly what exist with such a treatment method as apitherapy, indications and contraindications.
Indications for use
How is bees treated for varicose veins? The sting of a striped insect is sent directly to a vein node and to places that cause severe pain. Getting under the skin, the poison penetrates into the venous region affected by varicose veins. In this case, the patient immediately experiences relief. Contributing to the expansion of capillaries, apitherapy for varicose veins significantly improves venous outflow. This allows you to get rid of the painful nodes formed in the veins.
Bee venom includes a unique component - hirudin. It is he who produces the dissolution of blood clots. In addition, hirudin perfectly stimulates blood circulation not only venous, but also capillary. As a rule, several sessions are enough for the patient to feel positive results. Over time, the nodes completely disappear from the surface, the skin takes on a more attractive appearance. Along with this, the patient gets rid of constant pain.
Removing the venous network will take a little longer. However, such defects are subject to apitherapy. It should be noted that any disease is much faster and more effective in eliminating the initial stages of development. Therefore, you should not postpone a visit to a specialist, thereby exacerbating varicose veins, which in the advanced stage will require much more strength and patience.
Contraindications
Unfortunately, there are a number of factors in which this method of treatment cannot be used. And no matter what excellent effects apitherapy guarantees, contraindications should be considered.
An allergy to bee stings is extremely rare. About two out of a hundred people suffer from such reactions. That is why it is worthwhile to be very careful about the initial stage of treatment. In case of identification of individual intolerance to bee venom, it is necessary to immediately stop stinging by bees. Caution should be taken to apitherapy for people who are allergic to various beekeeping products (honey, propolis).
Treatment with bee stings is prohibited during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Oncological diseases are also a contraindication. During an exacerbation of chronic ailments, apitherapy should be abandoned. In severe infectious diseases and tuberculosis, treatment with bees is prohibited. You should not use this method at elevated temperatures, because it can signal the development of infection or an exacerbation of the disease.
The presence of type 1 diabetes makes the procedure impossible. At the same time, type 2 diabetes is not an obstacle to apitherapy. Severe diseases of the kidneys and liver (chronic hepatitis) are a clear contraindication to the treatment method under consideration.
With great caution, this method of therapy should be used in relation to children (up to 14 years old). Their immune system has not yet been formed, so if there is no great need, it is better to cancel the procedure altogether.
Bioassay
As previously noted, there is a certain percentage of people whose treatment with varicose veins bees provokes unpleasant allergic manifestations. But often not everyone can say with certainty how their body will react to a dose of poison. That is why apitherapy must be started with a bioassay.
As a rule, such a test is carried out in two stages. On the first day, one bee is placed in the lumbosacral region. The sting is removed immediately after a bite. Very carefully monitor the reaction of the body. With positive results, the test continues on the second day. The sting is removed in a minute.
If redness, swelling is formed at the site of the sample, then it is not worth the risk. However, if the body previously tolerated bee stings without consequences, then we can conclude that the test yielded positive results, and the treatment method is suitable.
Course of therapy
In some diseases, a bee is placed in a specific place. It is such ailments that include varicose veins. Treatment allows you to achieve excellent results.
The sting remains in the skin, and bee venom spills into the body. Together with him, a person receives the necessary dose of nutrients aimed at combating the disease. The result of the treatment lasts a long time.
The poison has an effect within 24 hours, so the sessions are repeated every other day. The number of procedures directly depends on the degree of neglect of varicose veins, but most often it takes 10-20 visits. At the same time, an excellent effect is noticeable even after the first session. The minimum course is 56 bees. The maximum number of bites is 200 times for the summer and 250 for the winter. This is due to the physiological feature of the bee, which is more active in the warm season. Depending on individual tolerance, up to 35 bees can be put in one session.
Where to be treated
Only a certified doctor should treat varicose veins with bee stings. Reviews may be the most optimistic, but an appeal to national experts is fraught with unforeseen consequences. For example, if a severe allergic reaction occurs, a folk doctor is unlikely to provide emergency resuscitation. Many clinics specialize in apitherapy. Bee and home treatment is common. It is not so important where the course of treatment will be carried out, the main thing is to make sure that you are dealing with a doctor and not with an amateur.
Remember that a competent specialist will begin the course of treatment with a bioassay for tolerance of bee venom.
Unpleasant sensations
Is the procedure in question painful? Yes. As a rule, an unplanned treatment experience, when bees bit unexpectedly, was received by all people. And it’s a completely different matter when a person decides to turn to a striped “doctor” for health reasons. It should be noted that the pain caused by varicose veins of the lower extremities significantly exceeds the bee sting. The therapeutic effect is instantaneous. A person not only gets rid of pain, but also returns to normal life.
Each subsequent session is marked by less painful manifestations. The body gets used, and the reaction to bites is somewhat dulled. The visual acuity of the procedure lasts the first thirty seconds. Then there is warmth or slight numbness. Sometimes doctors before the procedure somewhat cool the area intended for a bite with ice cubes. This allows you to reduce pain.
After the session, the patient may feel unwell, expressed by weakness, lethargy, and sometimes an increase in temperature. The main symptoms in most patients are itching and small swelling at the sites of bites.
Methodologies
There are several bee sting techniques. The choice depends on the individual tolerance of the bee venom and on the nature of the disease. A careful selection of places for bites is based on apitherapy. Sting points for varicose veins are localized on the venous nodes. Another scheme can be used in which the places of bites are acupuncture (biologically active) points.
Price of treatment
Determining the cost of therapy is quite difficult, because you need to consider many factors, such as the stage of the disease and the individual reaction to the poison. Based on this, an individual sting scheme is developed. The numbers below will help you determine what apitherapy will result in. The price of one bee is twenty-five rubles. Thus, the minimum rate (56 sessions) will cost 1,400 rubles.
Reviews
Most people share feedback on the excellent results of apitherapy. Instead of surgery, some patients opted for bees to treat varicose veins. The reviews are simply amazing. Apitherapy is really capable of working miracles. All patients emphasize that the pain disappeared after the first session, and the symptoms of recovery are observed after several procedures.
Lethal dose
Apitherapy is absolutely harmless. But being in the hive without a special protective suit can be fatal. The lethal dose for an adult is 100-500 bites. It should be noted that 50 stings at a time can cause severe toxic poisoning.
Instead of a conclusion
Bees always demanded a special attitude. In ancient times, beekeepers enjoyed great respect, because they put their lives in mortal danger. Even then, apitherapy was quite popular. Today, the treatment of varicose veins with bees is recognized as the most effective method of getting rid of this ailment.
