DR JC Govender Physician Inc is diversifying: Now introducing Integrative medicine into our practice!
What is Integrative medicine?
Integrative Medicine is not alternate or complimentary medicine, instead it is a means of enhancing the action of the conventional therapies used to treat common medical conditions. This involves the use of Intravenous (IV) therapies such as minerals, trace elements, amino acids, vitamins, anti-oxidants amongst others to restore the body’s natural balance and hence promote overall well-being and healing.
Examples of some medical conditions that can be treated by IV therapies include Anxiety, Depression, Stress disorders, Migraine, Insulin resistance, Anaemias, Obesity, Fibromyalgia, Liver & Gut Detox, Neurophathies and Chronic fatigue syndrome from various causes such as long-Covid, Cancers, autoimmune diseases and HIV.
In addition to medical drips we also offer drips for wellness such as Immune boosters and drips that can assist with certain skin conditions such as hyperpigmentation and the effects of ageing.
Integrating IV therapies into medical practice is becoming an increasingly common practice especially in leading first world countries such as the United States.
