What Are the Benefits of Therapeutic Phlebotomy / Blood Letting
Aside from helping with high levels of iron and helping to balance out other conditions of the blood, there are many benefits. Keep in mind that this type of phlebotomy is different from donating blood. Donating blood can be hugely beneficial to you, and others!
- Do you get testosterone hormone replacement therapy?
- Are you having High Red Blood Cell?
- You may require blood donations?
- You can have your donation completed at home in the privacy of your office or home.
- Many patients who undergo therapeutic phlebotomy say they feel better, in general, after having the procedure. This is usually due to the removal of toxins from the body. An iron buildup.( a condition called hemochromatosis) can also leave you feeling lousy in a lot of ways. Just one session of therapeutic phlebotomy can make a lot of those negative symptoms go away or not feel as severe.
- It helps to clear your circulatory system. Because of this, it can help some people who suffer from hypertension. It may also help to lower blood pressure and dangerous cholesterol levels.
- Therapeutic phlebotomy gives your spleen a break! It’s the job of your spleen to filter blood and remove old red blood cells. It can work overtime if you’re producing too many red blood cells or if your blood has a high viscosity. This procedure can allow your spleen to rest for a while and let it perform its natural functions without having to work harder than usual.
- Many different kinds of toxins can be removed from your body through regular therapeutic phlebotomy. Not only can this help you feel better, as stated above, but it can help your body function better. Think of it as a ‘tune-up.’ Your organs can function at a higher level when a buildup of toxins is removed.
