Treatments

Here is a brief overview of the Treatments we provide. For further details please contact us.

Oxidative Therapy

Ozone therapy is considered to be one of the most effective and versatile therapies in health care. Ozone therapy generally creates increased vitality and well being because the body is receiving both oxygen and nourishment, and over time, will clean all the fluids of the body safely.

Ozone was first used in Germany during the mid-1800’s to therapeutically purify blood. Physicians frequently used ozone in their practices until the 1930’s when the American Medical Association (AMA) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) set out to remove all medical treatments that competed with allopathic drug therapies. This policy continues to the present time.

However, Germany has over 8,000 licensed health practitioners using ozone as a therapy. Many more thousands of doctors around the world now use ozone—either alone or as a complement to other therapies.

Ozone is a powerful oxidizing agent able to destroy a wide variety of viruses and bacteria. It also breaks down many chemicals such as pesticides, detergents, and poisonous chemicals.

What does Ozone do?

• Activates the healing process and tissue repair
• Inactivates viruses, bacteria, yeast, and fungus
• Stimulates the immune system
• Cleans arteries and improves circulation
• Purifies the blood and lymph
• Normalizes hormone and enzyme production
• Reduces inflammation and pain
• Stops bleeding, prevents shock
• Prevents stroke damage
• Reduces cardiac arrhythmias
• Improves brain function and memory
• Oxidizes toxins, allowing for their excretion
• Enhances removal of toxic metals
• Prevents and reverses degenerative diseases
• Prevents and treats communicable diseases
• Prevents and eliminates autoimmune diseases

Some conditions treated with ozone are:

• Acne
• Allergies
• Fungal diseases
• Rheumatoid and Osteoarthritis
• Lupus
• Autoimmune diseases
• Alzheimer’s
• Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
• Fibromyalgia
• Virus infections
• Raynaud’s disease
• Circulatory problems
• Cancer
• Parkinson’s disease
• Multiple sclerosis
• Sciatica

Chelation & Intravenous Therapies

Chelation is defined as a chemical reaction involving a protein structure binding a metal element. When the protein and metal join, the bond, known as a ligand, forms one of the most stable structures in nature.

Chelation therapy is successfully applied as a specific treatment for toxic metals, and for the treatment of atherosclerosis (plaque buildup and hardening of the arteries). The chelating agent binds with harmful metals, such as lead, mercury, and cadmium, which then facilitates the excretion of the toxic metals.

Successful reversal of heart disease, diabetic neuropathy, high blood pressure and many other chronic degenerative diseases are routinely accomplished by intravenous chelation therapy.

Chelation therapy benefits are:

• Immune system enhancement
• Improved blood clotting
• Improved delivery of oxygen and nutrients
• Improved blood flow
• Significant detoxification
• Anti-aging effect
• Better energy and less fatigue

Bee Therapy/Apitherapy

Honey Bee Venom Therapy (BVT) can dramatically increase the success of other Naturopathic therapies such as Ozone Therapy. Bee venom has potential analgesic and immune enhancing properties that help reduce inflammation and promote healing. It also contains several anti-inflammatory compounds. BVT is a method that naturally supports the immune system, improves cortisol levels, and enhances the vitality of the adrenal glands.

Dr. Keyzer uses an extract of bee venom that is injected just under the skin. Icing the area before and after the application minimizes pain.
It is important to note that bees are not killed or injured in the collection of the bee venom extract. Many health conditions can potentially benefit from therapy, including most autoimmune and inflammatory conditions.

Unfortunately, people diagnosed with having a bee sting allergy would be prevented from being able to use this treatment.

The following is a partial list of conditions that may benefit from BVT:

• Rheumatoid Arthritis
• Osteo Arthritis
• Multiple Sclerosis
• Lupus
• Gout
• Bursitis
• Scleroderma
• Fibromyalgia
• Sciatica
• Cancer
• Tendonitis
• Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Detoxification Programs

The Detoxification Program includes detox clay foot baths (ionic foot baths) to remove toxic elements and heavy elements from the body through the feet.

Cancer Treatments

The Ladner Naturopathic Medical Clinic offers various solutions for the treatment and prevention of cancer.

Structural Therapies - Reflexology

One of the treatments offered at the clinic is reflexology. Reflexology is like a massage of the hands, feet, or ears. In this clinic, it is usually just the feet that are worked on.

This is a therapy that has many benefits. One of the most profound is the ability to reduce pain. My father became a reflexologist 40 years ago because he saw first hand the incredible reduction of pain in a cancer patient. This patient, my uncle, was dying of pancreatic cancer and needed morphine constantly to control the pain. Because of the morphine, he could not think clearly or communicate well with family members. After only a few reflexology sessions, the pain levels dropped significantly and he was able to wean off of the morphine. My father then decided to learn this art and treat my uncle. He would go daily to visit my uncle and give him very light gentle treatments. He couldn’t press hard because it hurt too much. As long as my father came every day, my uncle remained pain free and was able to think clearly and most importantly, spend quality time with his family. The treatments didn’t cure the cancer, but he had a much better quality of life during the last months of his time here. That experience had a huge effect on me and was a factor in deciding to become a Naturopathic physician.

Reflexology has other benefits as well. The most important benefit is its ability to relax organs and tissues corresponding to areas of the feet, hands, or ears. Blood flows better and nerves conduct more effectively in organs that are relaxed. Better blood flow means increased oxygenation, increased nutrition and increased waste removal from tissues and organs.

Reflexology is not a diagnostic tool, but can indirectly, help the doctor in making an assessment. When I work on someone’s feet and ask questions related to certain tender spots, I learn a great deal of information about the client, and if that client chooses to become a patient, I already have considerable information to work with. The client, of course, is free to ask as many questions as they like, as well. This is an opportunity for them to learn more about naturopathic medicine and the impact it can have on their health concerns.
