The Treatment strategy is based on Functional Medicine concept, integrating conventional and advanced, research-based alternative/complementary therapies.
 

 

At JIRUNG ,our doctor team follow the comprehensive functional medicine strategy ,focusing on treating disease symptoms as well as managing the underlying causes. The experience of this functional approach over years has shown that the better a doctor can determine and eliminate underlying causes of imbalances in our body’s immune, nutritional status, gastrointestinal function, regulatory and repair mechanisms, etc. ,the higher the degree of the effectiveness of all the treatment components in a whole program. It is our principle to use the most effective, and least toxic or non-invasive treatment components possible, focusing more on promoting and enhancing our body functions rather than to stop or block normal physiology, to help our body to heal.

The Functional Medicine Treatment is based on the concept that chronic diseases, malignant diseases, immune disorders, and other degenerative diseases will not manifest in a healthy body with properly functioning regulatory, repair and defense mechanisms. The internal bodily environment that promotes the development of chronic disease is due to a combination of multiple causes and conditions or imbalances, which persist and remain chronically active, even after removal of the disease symptoms, e.g. in the case of cancer, the tumor mass. These remaining untreated causes or imbalances are responsible for the high rate of disease recurrence and progression even after initially successful standard treatment.

JIRUNG’s programs are designed to:
• Address root causes or imbalances of the disease condition, which, if not corrected can lead to recurrence and progression of the disease.
• Restore the natural mechanisms of regulation, repair and defense, and herewith the innate healing forces. 
 

The Treatment at JIRUNG complements the standard approaches to Chronic Diseases in the following fundamental ways:

• Standard treatments are mainly focused on the disease diagnosis, e.g. in the case of cancer, the tumor mass and its related symptoms.
• Functional treatment addresses also preconditions or imbalances that have contributed to the development of the disease, e.g. in the case of cancer, the underlying causes of tumor. 
 

All Functional Treatment protocols are personalized through meticulous diagnostic procedures, including specialized functional testing methods that go beyond standard examinations, to meet the individual patient’s unique requirements. They can be administered in conjunction with standard treatments, as follow-up treatment or on their own. Our team of physicians works in collaboration with experts of all medical specialty fields depending on individual needs.

 

Treatment Components

The Treatment programs are established upon extensive diagnostic evaluation, including modern complementary tools, and personalized detailed analysis of a patient's medical history. The components of our treatment enhance one another and are integrated into an individualized treatment protocol according to Functional Medicine Principles and Concept:
 

1. Addressing the disease symptoms, e.g. in the case of cancer, attacking the tumor and stimulating overall immune functions by scientifically validated, non-toxic substances and treatment modalities.

2. Removing of causal factors that were found to impair the individual patient’s regulatory, repair and defense functions and replacing the essential components for normal physiologic functions, those were found missing.

These may include:

• Nutritional Supplementation;
• Correct nutritional imbalances;
• Correct gastrointestinal imbalances;
• Remove abnormal bacterial intestinal flora;
• Treat Chronic infections;
• Eliminate Heavy metal toxicities;
• Reevaluate Environmental, occupational and lifestyle factors;
• Emotional/Psychological factors.

3. Restoring the damages and metabolic disturbance and regenerating the healthy bodily environment and enhance immunity:

These may include:
• Therapy to improve our body capacity to eliminate the metabolic residues , toxic metabolites, resulting from the disease and its treatment or from other previous toxin exposure;
• Oxidative therapies to activate cellular respiration;
• Glandular therapy and compensation of losses by the administration of glandulars;
• Enzymatic therapy with proteolytic enzymes to aid in digestion and elimination of immune suppressive factors such as immune complexes;
• Nutritional immunotherapy;
• Intravenous Nutrition with supplementation of vitamins, minerals, trace elements, amino acids, etc.;
• Emotional and Psychological guidance;
• Physical therapy, acupuncture, colon hydrotherapy, massages according to individual needs.
 

4. Restoration of innate immunities by various immunobiological treatment modalities including adoptive immunotherapy or stem cell interventions.
 

5. Education in a healthy lifestyle, nutrition etc
