The treatment of chronic infections requires experience, patience and often an individually tailored concept. Standard recipes – such as short antibiotic monotherapy – are usually not sufficient for protracted courses. Our association pursues a holistic, evidence-based and at the same time innovative approach.

Steps to Therapy Planning

1

Thorough Diagnosis

Comprehensive diagnostics comes first. We help patients get the right tests.

  • Advanced lab analyses for Borrelia (LTT, Blot)
  • Co-infections (Babesia, Bartonella, Rickettsia)
  • Immune status and inflammatory markers
  • Goal: Sustained remission and restoration of quality of life
2

Individual Therapy Planning

Once it is clear which pathogens are present, we create a tailored therapy plan.

  • Long-term antibiotic combination therapy
  • Immune-strengthening adjunctive therapies
  • Innovative specialized therapies
  • Psychosocial support
3

Monitoring and Adjustment

Therapy can take months. We won't leave you alone during this time.

  • Continuous progress monitoring
  • Side effect management
  • Therapy adjustment as needed
  • Goal: Pathogen control & clinical remission
4

Legal Counseling

We provide advisory support for problems with insurance providers or employers.

  • Social law support
  • Apply for rehabilitation measures
  • Public advocacy

Our Therapy Approaches

Antibiotic Combination Therapy

Long-term combinations with 2-3 antibiotics in parallel, based on ILADS protocols. Reaches all pathogen forms including biofilm forms.

Adjunctive Therapies

High-dose vitamins, herbal antimicrobials, immunomodulators, detoxification procedures and stress management.

Innovative Special Therapies

IPT (Insulin-Potentiated Therapy), historical approaches such as Potassium-Arsenite Therapy in specialized hands.

“
Monotherapies often fall short in chronic cases. The key lies in combining synergies – medically, immunologically, and detoxifying.

⚠️ Warning Against Self-Therapy

We strongly advise against taking antibiotics purchased on the internet on your own. Treatment belongs in the hands of experienced physicians. We refer such, rather than patients endangering themselves.

✓ Success Prospects

Many patients who were considered "treatment-resistant" for years can achieve significant improvements with the right concept. Our motto: "Chronic infections are treatable!"

Detailed Treatment Components

Long-term Antibiotic Combination Therapy▼

We work with physicians willing to use antibiotic combinations over an extended period. Active Lyme disease is often treated with at least 2-3 antibiotics in parallel.

The choice of substances depends on the pathogens present and tolerability. The combination aims to reach all forms of the pathogens – including slow-growing forms and those in biofilms.

Adjunctive and Supportive Therapies▼

Chronic infections burden the entire organism. Therefore, we recommend the following supplementary measures:

  • • High-dose vitamin and mineral supplementation to address deficiencies
  • • Herbal antimicrobials (Artemisinin for Babesia, Cat's Claw, Oregano oil)
  • • Immunomodulators (low-dose Naltrexone, thymus extracts)
  • • Detoxification procedures (heavy metals, environmental toxins)
  • • Physiotherapy, adequate rest and stress management
Innovative Specialized Therapies▼

In particularly stubborn cases, we look beyond standard procedures:

  • • IPT (Insulin-Potentiated Therapy): Low antibiotic doses are more effectively channeled into cells using insulin
  • • These methods are experimental and should only be performed by specialists

Important: We leave no option untried, as long as it is medically justifiable and offers chances for improvement.
