PARENTERAL THERAPIES
The intravenous and injection administration of naturopathic medicaments is a
safe and effective way to enhance their therapeutic response. Giving substances
via this route allows direct access to the circulatory system, particularly
necessary for individuals whose absorptive ability of the gastrointestinal tract
is limited or impaired. I.V. therapy enables one to deliver high concentrations
of medicines, which otherwise may not be able to be achieved by oral means.
Drug effects occur quicker when given intravenously, thusly making this the
preferred route in emergency, acute and chronic cases.
Parenteral Therapies benefit a variety of severe infectious, inflammatory and
pain producing conditions. Autoimmune, degenerative and malignant diseases are
also appropriate indications for I.V. therapy. Patients suffering from anxiety,
depression and chronic stress are often helped by infusions formulated to relax,
de-stress and tonify their nervous systems. For generally healthy individuals
who desire preventative nutrition, parenteral administration of nutrients is
an excellent method to achieve this goal.
Considered by many a pioneer in the intravenous application of naturopathic therapies,
Dr. Swetlikoff and KNC offer an extensive variety of intravenous treatments.
Examples include vitamin, mineral, trace element, amino acid, high dose vitamin
C, alkalinizing, glutathione, hydrochloric acid, botanical and homeopathic infusions
and injections.
