Enjoying the heat from the sun does more than feel good; it energizes, promotes healing, and kills bacteria. Ultraviolet blood irradiation therapy harnesses that power to provide the body with a natural antibiotic: light. The innovative naturopathic therapy exposes your blood to ultraviolet light, which enhances your immune system to kill blood-borne diseases and bacteria. It is used to treat psoriasis, chronic fatigue and infections, lymph cancer, and autoimmune diseases.

Why Invest in This Naturopathic Therapy?

1. Increase Circulation

The naturopathic therapy dilates the blood vessels to increase circulation. In so doing, organs have greater access to essential nutrients, which help the immune system fight infections. Healthy blood circulation also boosts your energy and overall wellness.

2. Detoxify 

Blood irradiation therapy destroys fungus, bacteria, and viruses to rid the body of toxins. Moreover, improved circulation, as mentioned above, also effectively removes carbon dioxide and other waste products. 

3. Improve Oxygen Absorption

Ultraviolet light kills bacteria and pathogens in the blood, which allows the body to better absorb oxygen. Higher levels of oxygen strengthen the immune system and its ability to eradicate harmful foreign organisms.

4. Promote Vitamin D Production

The body primarily produces vitamin D through exposure to sunlight. Ultraviolet light activates cortisone-like molecules, turning them into the vitamin, which helps the body absorb calcium for strong and healthy bones.

5. Decrease Platelet Aggregation

When blood flows at a healthy rate, there is less risk for platelets to clump. Ultraviolet blood irradiation therapy decreases platelet aggregation, or severe clumping, that is often a precursor to atherosclerosis, thrombosis, and stroke.
