Every Organ in the Human body can benefit to some degree from Medicinal leech therapy. A detailed case history will provide the necessary information to start the healing process . Number of leeches applied to address the condition and help it heal and the interval between sessions vary accordingly. Also the willingness of the person to help the practitioner - Myself - to get a quick progress by following the advice is an important factor.
What to expect during the session:
Expect to spend about an hour more or less , there is a minute tingling involving application of leeches which is bearable by everyone of my clients.
Everything is performed with the Topmost hygiene and cleanliness to get the desired health effects from leech therapy. Leeches only used Once and is euthanized by placing it in a concentrated alcohol Jar directly after it gets off the client's skin.
Please have a Loose cotton clothing and a wide mouth slipper if applicable.
Do not drive after the session if you feel uncomfortable or dizzy (rarely happen).
If the bandage - which I apply it on the bite site afterward - gets wet from more discharge please do not remove it , just apply more gauze layers to it and do remove it after 24 hours ,
a diluted Hydrogen Peroxide solution To cleanse the bite site after gauze removal is helpful.
Drink more spring water and fresh natural juices after your session and please do stop your hard activity for the next 24 hours after the session.
Itching and irritation is to be expected after the session and is a good sign that leech therapy is actively benefiting the body. If itching is unbearable an ice pack application to the site or some calamine lotions is helpful .
