Local hyperthermia

Since 2005, various types of hyperthermia devices have been used in many holistic medicine centers. Local radio wave hyperthermia is used for a specific organ or part of the body (such as the pelvis or abdomen).

During this procedure, a special device emits radio waves in the 15.34 megahertz (MHz) range for more than 1 hour, which are directed at the human body.

During the procedure, two applicators are placed on the required body area, positioned parallel to each other on each side of the body. This arrangement of applicators, or antennas, creates a radio wave field that flows through the body’s tissues for approximately one hour. During this time, the patient experiences increasing warmth in the respective body zone, but it is not so intense as to cause pain. Healthy tissues in this frequency range allow radio waves to flow freely and undisturbed through the tissues, only slightly increasing local temperature. In contrast, tumor tissues absorb much more energy at this radio wave frequency. According to physicists’ calculations, it is precisely at this frequency that tumor cells’ ability to absorb energy is the highest. This leads to overheating of the tissues, creating an unfavorable environment for survival.

Laboratory tests have demonstrated that this radio wave frequency serves as the trigger mechanism for cell apoptosis (cell death). This means that under such conditions, cancer cells are naturally subjected to destruction. To achieve the desired effect of this therapy, the initially recommended 10-15 minutes of the procedure have been extended to one hour. Ideally, it should be combined concurrently with intravenous infusion or radio wave therapy. Practice has shown that the highest effectiveness of this therapy method is achieved when the patient receives intravenous infusion of natural anticancer substances during the course of treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does local deep hyperthermia work?

In the case of local deep hyperthermia, the area affected by cancer is heated to 43°C. Cancer cells are exposed to electromagnetic waves with a frequency of 13.5 megahertz. Heat-sensitive cancer cells react more strongly to overheating than healthy cells, which are hardly affected at this frequency. “Programmed cell death” in cancer cells, also known as apoptosis, occurs after some time of overheating. Healthy cells are not harmed because they only warm up slightly at this frequency.

Local deep hyperthermia can be performed as a standalone treatment or in combination with radiation therapy and/or chemotherapy. Numerous scientific studies have been conducted on its combination with traditional treatment methods, such as radiation or chemotherapy.
