UV Therapy for Lyme Disease

What is UV Therapy?

UV stands for Ultraviolet. Ultraviolet Blood Irradiation (UVBI) therapy appears to be highly effective in treating persistent virusesm parasites and antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

Tigard Holistic Health Clinic describes it as: “UVB Ultraviolet Therapy (Photo-oxidation therapy) is a biological healing modality utilizing ultraviolet irradiation of the blood (with UV Ultraviolet C light) to produce the following beneficial photochemical reactions, Improved micro circulation, oxygenation of tissues Anti-inflammatory effects, stimulation of the immune system, increased tolerance of the body towards radiation or chemotherapy, cardiovascular protection through increased metabolism of cholesterol, uric acid, and glucose, resolution of vascular spasms and powerful anti-infection properties”

How is it Done?

During the UVB treatment, a small amount of the patient’s blood is drawn from the body and exposed to ultraviolet energy, then reinfused back into the patient. When the irradiated blood is put back into the patient, this altered form of oxygen circulates throughout the body.

The UV light is said to kill unwanted microbes, and also adds oxygen to the system, improving the energy producing activities (oxidative metabolism) at a cellular level, and then elevates the levels of antioxidants capable of fighting free radicals.
