Some say that Vitamin C is one of the most important vitamins to add supplementally to your body. It is one of the safest and most effective nutrients, and helps your body fight again eye disease, skin wrinkling, cardiovascular issues, and helps boost the immune system. Despite all of these benefits, the body can not produce its own vitamin c meaning it is that much more important to take it as a vitamin. Being a strong antioxidant is one of the most common reasons people take a vitamin c supplement. Antioxidants are molecules that help boost the immune system by protecting cells from harmful molecules like free radicals. Vitamin C has been recorded to boost your blood's antioxidant levels by up to 30%. That's a big difference when fighting illnesses and inflammation. A lesser-known benefit is the ability to help lower blood pressure. Nearly 1/3rd of American adults experience high blood pressure. By adding a vitamin c supplement you help the blood vessels around your ...

Since no two cancer diagnoses–or the people who receive them–are the same, a  combination of therapies usually yields better results than a one-size-fits-all approach. A holistic specialist who takes the time to get to know you, your body, and your diagnosis can customize treatment to maximize positive outcomes. Even patients already receiving chemo can experience the benefits of alternative cancer therapies by combining them with their existing treatment. Insulin Potentiation Therapy Fight fire with fire by turning diseased cells against themselves! IPT, a weekly intravenous infusion of short-acting insulin, rapidly decreases the level of sugar in a patient’s blood, “starving” the bad cells to death while preserving healthy cells. Not only does this treatment help the body’s natural processes combat these diseased cells, but it also helps medicine get into the body much more easily and in greater quantities than ever before.

Any cancer diagnosis brings a wave of emotions with it: confusion, anger, sadness, fear. You want to do something–anything–to improve your health as quickly as possible and get back to your life.  While it’s important to take action, your cancer treatment will yield better results if you get to know your body before committing to a plan. Traditional treatments like chemotherapy can in fact damage the very body they are intended to heal if selected and administered ineffectively. Before beginning the process, it’s important to breathe, take a step back, and gather all the information you can about what, and who, you’re treating. The Greek Test The RGCC test, commonly referred to as the “Greek Test” because it is performed only in Greece, analyzes your blood sample to uncover a profile for your specific cancer cell type. This profile is then tested against dozens of common chemotherapy drugs as well as natural treatments. These results are used to determine which...

Alternative Medicine Shouldn’t be the Alternative Form of Healthcare When making the decision on how you’re going to approach treatment, it’s important to choose a method that not only works, but stays true to your values. Discovering illness is a terrifying experience, but you don’t have to fight your battle alone. Did you know? The National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) found that 38 percent of adults and 12 percent of children are choosing alternative medical treatment. Compared to traditional medicine, alternative medical approaches provide many benefits throughout the duration of treatment for patients. Here are four reasons why natural medicine proves more promising than traditional meds. 1. Healthy body, healthy mind. Alternative medicine sees patients as people, not illnesses. The approach of these methods emphasize wellness as a whole for your body, mind, and spirit. This reduces stress and makes the road to recovery much more s...

At the Get Well Center, we understand that traditional cancer treatments such as cancer can wear on your body and soul. Feeling tired and constantly fighting is hard work. Through pairing alternative treatments, healing and overall wellbeing can be maximized while receiving your conventional cancer treatment. The Get Well Center offers several suggested therapies to pair with other cancer treatment. Insulin Potentiation Therapy (IPT) is one of the most commonly suggested complementary therapies because it targets cell health. IPT decreases the blood’s sugar level with short-acting insulin so it essentially starves the harmful cells with preserving healthy cells. Not only are the diseased cells destroyed, but IPT helps medicine more effectively enter the body. Along with Insulin Potentiation Therapy, treatment plans oftentimes include Lymphatic Therapy. Lymphatic Therapy uses a Light Beam Generator to produce a low current that transfers to cells in the targeted lymphatic regions. ...

Colon Cleansing is beneficial to those who are looking for an increased sense of overall wellbeing. After cleansing the colon can better defend itself from disease, as well as better aid the digestive system. Colonics are a key factor in the body’s natural balance and good health. So what is a colon cleanse exactly? The Get Well Center utilizes the Wood Gravitational Method. The Wood Gravitational Method is a technique of colon irrigation that is often referred to as an internal bath. It helps your colon expel poisons, gas, and residual fecal matter. Water is flowed through the colon in a constant stream. Because of the steady, constant movement on the water, it does not create discomfort, pressure or cause water retention. The flow is controlled by your practitioner and flows into the colon via a small tube. A second small tube carries the water, and any removed substances out. Often times an abdominal massage is given to help stimulate the colon to help release any contents and ...
