The end result is plaque formation within the arteries, which blocks the flow of blood. Plaques are composed of fibrous tissue, cholesterol and calcium. Chelation Therapy promotes health by correcting the major underlying cause of arterial blockage. Damaging oxygen free radicals are increased by the presence of metallic elements and act as a chronic irritant to blood vessel walls and cell membranes. EDTA removes those metallic irritants, allowing leaky and damaged cell walls to heal.
Plaques smooth over and shrink, allowing more blood to pass.
Arterial walls become softer and more pliable, allowing easier expansion. Any unexplained or persistent symptoms that affect your heart, head or limbs should be explored for circulatory blockage. Although Chelation Therapy is best utilized to avoid bypass surgery, many patients who have previously undergone one or more bypass procedures, often with little or no benefit, have subsequently benefited greatly from Chelation Therapy. The one to three hour treatments are administered to a patient who sits comfortably in an easy chair, reading, talking, watching TV or even dozing. Treatments are always administered under a physician's supervision and a nurse is always in attendance.
