Bee Sting Therapy

Bee venom therapy is the part of apitherapy which utilizes bee venom in the treatment of health conditions.

Apitherapy is the use of beehive products, including honey, pollen, propolis, royal jelly, bee venom.

It has been used since ancient times to treat arthritis, rheumatism, back pain, skin diseases and in this modern age as an alternative therapy to treat multiple sclerosis, Lyme disease and chronic fatigue syndrome.

Bee venom is most effective when it comes directly from the live bee during the late spring to early fall season when bees have a good pollen source to produce potent venom.

Their venom during the winter period is less potent. Next to the effect of a live bee, injectable venom solution is considered to be a standard method to administer bee venom.

Venom solution is prepared from pure bee venom (Apis Venenum Purum) and is a homeopathic preparation. It is administered intradermally just between the skin layers or subcutaneously under the skin to imitate the effect of a bee sting.

Each injection is equivalent to or is less than the average dry venom sac content of a honey bee. Bee venom is also used topically in creams, liniments and ointments.

The application of venom solution with electrophoresis or ultrasonophoresis is practiced in Europe and China.
