Chelation therapy is a treatment approach that has been used for many decades to bind and detoxify heavy metals or mineral compounds in the body. In our clinic, we carry out chelation therapy with both oral preparations and chelation infusions.
The approach is based on the understanding that harmful substances can accumulate in our bodies over the course of our lives. This includes, for instance, heavy metals from environmental pollution or mineral deposits in blood vessels and tissues. As a result, oxidative stress, inflammatory processes or circulatory disorders can occur.
Chelation infusions aim to reduce these burdens and to support the body’s own regulatory and detoxifying processes. In this context, so-called chelating agents are administered, such as EDTA (ethylene-diamine-tetraacetic acid). These chelating agents have the ability to bind certain metal ions in the body. The resulting complexes are water-soluble and can be excreted via the kidneys.
The areas of application include various clinical pictures, for example heavy metal contamination, vascular calcification, chronic exhaustion and inflammation, oxidative stress, circulatory disorders, cardiovascular diseases and neurodegenerative diseases (e.g. Alzheimer’s).
Scientific information on chelation therapy can be found at the American College for Advancement in Medicine (ACAM).
As chelation infusions are an intensive medical treatment, we carry them out very carefully and individually:
- Preparation: The basis for every treatment is a medical anamnesis interview, a personal consultation and the performance of specific laboratory tests. In this way, we can determine what your body needs in order to be optimally prepared for the chelation infusions.
- Support: One to three days after each detoxification infusion, we carry out a micronutrient infusion. The reason is that chelation infusions can remove important minerals or trace elements from the body. Through the micronutrient infusions, we ensure that your body is optimally supplied with all the necessary minerals.
- Monitoring: To assess the progress of the therapy, we carry out regular laboratory checks. For example, specific urine diagnostics are carried out after every third to fifth chelation infusion. Based on this, we examine which heavy metals and minerals are removed and in what quantity, which in turn influences the course of further therapy.
As a rule, chelation therapy comprises at least 5-10 detoxification infusions (3-4 hours each) at €299 and 5-10 micronutrient infusions (60-80 minutes each) at €199, once a week each. In this context, we pursue an individualized chelation concept that has proven itself over decades. The costs for the treatments are usually covered partially by private health insurance companies.
If required, chelation therapy can be supplemented by other procedures, e.g. by intravenous oxygen therapy, intravenous laser therapy, IHHT oxygen altitude training or ozone-oxygen therapy. We will be happy to advise you on this.
Furthermore, a responsible, healthy lifestyle is very important. We are therefore happy to advise you on topics such as stress management, nutrition, exercise and sleep.
