ISCADOR MISTLETOE INJECTION THERAPY
A Natural, Immune-Enhancing Approach to Cancer Care
At our clinic, mistletoe therapy is a key component of our holistic cancer treatment program. This natural therapy uses an extract from the mistletoe plant, known for its ability to help ease cancer symptoms, reduce inflammation, support healthy circulation, and improve tolerance to conventional treatments like chemotherapy and radiation. It may also play a role in slowing the growth of cancer cells.
What Is Iscador Mistletoe Therapy?
Iscador is a specialized extract from the mistletoe plant, which has been used in traditional medicine for centuries. In Europe, mistletoe has been part of integrative cancer care since the early 1900s, particularly in naturopathic and anthroposophic medicine.
Backed by over 150 scientific publications, mistletoe therapy is now recognized for its supportive role in cancer treatment. Studies show benefits both as a complementary therapy alongside conventional treatments and as a stand-alone option in some cases.
Recently, it has gained more attention in North America, in part due to public use by individuals like Suzanne Somers during her breast cancer treatment.
How Mistletoe Therapy Works
Supporting Your Immune System to Fight Cancer
Mistletoe stimulates the body’s natural defense systems, activating immune cells that can recognize and attack cancer cells. In some of the most promising cases, immune cells mobilize to surround and isolate tumors, helping to prevent further damage to healthy tissue.
What to Expect During Treatment
Frequency: Mistletoe injections are usually administered 3 times per week.
Injection Sites: Injections are rotated between the abdomen, thigh, and upper arm to avoid tenderness.
Dosage: Treatment begins with a low dose, gradually increasing based on the individual’s response until a therapeutic level is reached.
Advanced Cases: In more aggressive cancers, daily injections may be recommended.
Proven Benefits of Mistletoe Injections
Mistletoe therapy, when used as part of an integrated cancer care plan, offers a wide range of potential benefits:
Boosts the immune system’s ability to fight cancer
Enhances tolerance to chemotherapy and radiation
Reduces side effects like fatigue, nausea, neuropathy, and low blood counts
May improve survival rates and overall quality of life
Helps inhibit tumor growth by blocking DNA-repair enzymes (e.g., topoisomerase II)
Can be used with both malignant and benign tumors
Stimulates bone marrow activity
Are There Any Side Effects?
Most patients tolerate mistletoe injections well. Mild and temporary side effects may include:
Redness or swelling at the injection site
Mild fever or chills
Headache, dizziness, or fatigue
Swollen lymph nodes or muscle aches
These reactions often indicate that the immune system is becoming more active. If symptoms persist or become uncomfortable, your treatment will be adjusted accordingly. Our naturopathic team closely monitors every patient to ensure safety and effectiveness.
