Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Contents
What is cellular therapy ?
- The therapy is based on the ability of biologically active cellular extracts from animal fetuses to communicate genetic information to other cells that are biologically attenuated. This stimulates the affected cells, which are then able to produce proteins that are biologically more active. This has the effect of revitalizing and regenerating the human body.
How does the therapy act on the human body ?
- A complex process of stimulation and modulation occurs at a cellular level. The Cellvital extracts act as a model for the production of new proteins and integrate their genome into the human genome. This integration of two genomes allows descendants to be produced that are suitable for synthesizing polypeptide chains, which are free of DNA transcription errors. These new proteins start a fresh multiplication cycle that is freed from all the damage accumulated during the passage of time or past illnesses.
What are the advantages of the Cellvital method ?
- Biological products and cell tissues are rapidly denatured by the action of different proteolytic enzymes that break down the living material of cells, i.e. the proteins. It is essential that the cells and tissues be conserved in order, firstly, to maintain the biological value of the proteins contained in cellular extracts over time and, secondly, to give the laboratory the time they need to conduct adequate tests and checks in order to avoid any possibility of the presence of infectious or toxic agents affecting the cellular extracts. The method of conservation is known as the Cellvital method.
How are the Cellvital extracts produced ?
- The Cellvital method is based on using a stabilizing liquid that is non-toxic, non-pyrogenic, sterile and measurable. The different cellular extracts from animal fetus are diluted according to well-proven proportions. There is no freezing or freeze-drying (lyophilization).
What tests are performed on animals and on the Cellvital material ?
Post-mortem tests on animals to eliminate the presence of :
- Bovine Spongiform Encephalitis
- Rabies
- Brucellosis
- Q fever
- Leptospirosis
- Chlamydiosis
Tests on the Cellvital material :
- Sterility
- Protein content assay
- Endotoxin and pyrogen detection
What are the indications for Cellvital therapy ?
- General reduction in vitality
- Burn-out syndrome – occupational stress
- Physical and/or psychological fatigue
- Lack of energy, depression
- Premature ageing of various organs and systems :
heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, digestive system, blood circulation - Decrease of the immune system
- Osteoarthritis
- Endocrine disorders
- Problems related to the menopause
- Sexual impotency
- Stress related effects on homeostatic systems
- Chronic pains : migraines, headaches, neuralgia, back pain, sciatica
- Arteriosclerosis of the cardiovascular system
- Post-operative problems
- Sequels of illnesses
At what age can the therapy be undertaken ?
- There is no age limit for Cellvital therapy.
Why are there preliminary examinations ?
- To check the patient's health status
- To ensure that the treatment is specifically adapted to each patient and that the most appropriate cellular extracts are selected.
What contra-indications are there for Cellvital therapy ?
- Illnesses for which immunodepressive treatment is necessary
- Infectious diseases
- Auto-immune disorders
How long does it take for the effects of the therapy to be felt ?
- The effects of Cellvital therapy can be felt progressively during a period of 3 to 6 months.
How does the patient experience the effects of the therapy ?
- The patient usually feels stronger and has more energy
- His or her immune system is reinforced
- She or he has greater resistance to psychological and physical stress
- Clinical signs of certain illnesses may be reduced
How often should the therapy be repeated ?
- It is recommended that a complete therapy be repeated every 2 to 3 years. Between these therapies, depending on your life style or your state of health, it is possible to have a "Booster" treatment involving only 2 injections.
What secondary effects could occur ?
- Localized blotches
- Local pain
- Temperature
Should any activity be avoided during a three-day therapy ?
- No physical activity
- No massage of the injection sites for 24 hours
- No hot baths (showering is allowed)
- No saunas
- No body wraps
- No exposure to the sun
How does the Clinic follow-up its patients ?
- A medical questionnaire is sent to each patient 6 months after their therapy to evaluate the effects of the Cellvital therapy.
How many patients have had a Cellvital therapy ?
- During the last 50 years, thousands of patients from all over the world have benefited from our therapy.
Who are the patients of the Health Center Clinique Lémana ?
Our international patients are mainly :
- Business executives
- Politicians
- Retired people
- Actors
- Olympic medallists
Our code of practice and confidentiality policy prevents us from mentioning their names.
Are there other clinics practising the same therapy ?
- No, Cellvital therapy can be undertaken exclusively at the Health Center Clinique Lémana in Montreux, Switzerland.
