Treatment.
During the treatment, the leeches, in addition to blood-thinning agents, also release anti-inflammatory enzymes through their saliva.
These are particularly interesting for the treatment, since you can reach the deeper active sites by the longer suction of the leech. Thus, leeches are particularly useful in their application for the treatment of long-term inflammatory processes (e.g. in joints) which have become chronic. There are very few side effects from leech therapy. I gladly offer consultation on whether leech therapy is suitable for you. The treatment with leeches is very time consuming, please plan for at least 3 hours. Since there may be bleeding for over 24 hours, excessive physical activity should be avoided for 2 days after treatment.
