WE DO NOT TREAT OR HEAL, using apitherapy alongside a real treatment prescribed by a doctor supports it.

    After the first inhaling session you may begin to feel an improvement of your physical and psychological state and an inflow of vital strength.

    A session lasts 15 minutes where everyone will be equipped, by us, with their individual equipmment such as a mask. The mask will become your own posession and can only be used by yourself in the future sessions.

    The most popular indications for use of apitheraphy are:

    • Insomnia, diseases of the nervous system (paresis, neuritis, multiple sclerosis and cerebral palsy).

    • Chronic fatigue syndrome.

    • Diseases of the urinary system (nephritis, inflammation of the prostate gland).

    • Rheumatic diseases.

    • Heart diseases (elevated blood pressure).

    • Respiratory diseases (frequent respiratory infections, chronic pneumonia, bronchial asthma and others).

    • Chronic headaches, frequent migraines.

    • States of stress and depression.

    • Allergies.

    • Weakening of the immune system.

    The air coming from the hive is bacteria, virus and fungi free. An additional advantage is the opportunity of being in a place with such a high number of bees, where a beneficial energy for humans is released, and the air is ionized.

    The method utilises knowledge which has been gained from many years of experience and observations - of the unity of humans and nature. It has been confirmed that the energy which bees release is identical to the one emitted by humans. Human contact with such energy supports life strength gain, and reduces tiredness. The unfelt by a patient vibrations, which are created in the hive, not only help the general state of the organism but also the metabolic rate. Furthermore, the smell of natural honey, propolis, wax and bees pollen has a positive influence practically on all of the organ systems of humans: central nervous system, respiratory system, cardiovascular system. The fastest felt effect is definite improvement in sleep quality.
