Biopuncture
Biopuncture is a therapy whereby specific locations are injected with biological products. The majority of the products are derived from plants. Most of these injections are given into the skin or into muscles to evoke a physiological response to heal the body.
Products commonly used in Biopuncture are, for example, arnica, echinacea, nux vomica and chamomile. Arnica is used for muscle pain, nux vomica is injected for digestive problems, echinacea is used to increase the natural defense system of the body. Biopuncturists can inject cocktails of natural products. Lymphomyosot is used for lymphatic drainage, Traumeel for inflammations and sports injuries, Spascupreel for muscular
cramps.
It is proven that Biopuncture works by stimulating the immune system?
Biopuncturists have observed the effects of these injections for decades. Recent research on Biopuncture has given new insight on how these products seem to work . Scientific investigation has illustrated that Traumeel indeed works via the immune system. The mechanisms of action of Traumeel include both inhibition of IL-1 and inhibition of TNF-alpha secretion thus stimulating the body natural healing process..
