The holistic approach to patient treatment at the Holistera Polyclinic is based on establishing a balance of a healthy organism by improving the immune system and eliminating factors which block the functioning of the immune system.
We help you to restore the lost harmony to your body. This brings your body in an optimal state, in which you will fight more efficiently the illness which troubles it. We increase the healing ability of your body with intense detoxication, nutrients and supply of trace elements which stimulate normal cell regeneration.
Protocols which we implement are based on experience of holistic and complementary medicine, combined with individually adjusted programmes. The thing which makes this approach special is the fact that we treat the whole patient, not only the illness.
PRIMUM NIL NOCERE (lat. first, do no harm) – we are being taught at the School of Medicine – a doctor must not harm the patient – either through therapy, or through justification that the intended effect has undesirable side effects. Because of this our therapy is gentle, secure, non-toxic, adjusted to your needs for the best possible quality of life and as such improves the condition of the entire organism and facilitates your struggle against the illness.
We support a diseased organism in its efforts to heal itself with the help of our naturopathic, holistically complex programme.
Schedule your appointment, consult a specialist regarding your health problems and do something good for your health.
