PREOPERATIVE TREATMENT:
* Fourteen Days Prior to
Surgery --------- Vitamin Therapy
The vitamin surgery program by Vitamedica. Surgery can be a stressful event and the more invasive the procedure, the greater its demands on the body. Healing requires that the body create new tissue and blood vessels, repair injured tissue and step up the production of cells that repair wounds. This complex activity won't occur efficiently if your diet is short on essential nutrients. The Vitamedica Surgery Program provides internal skin and wound care by enhancing the body's natural mechanisms for repair and healing. The result: optimal surgical outcome.
* Ten Days Prior to Surgery ---------
Complimentary Post-operative Care Kit
This Kit will be given to you at the time of your preoperative visit. It will include items that you will need following your surgery, such as bandages, hydrogen peroxide, antibacterial ointment, etc. These items are provided to all our surgery patients at no cost.
* Seven Days Prior to Surgery ---------
Lymphatic Drainage Massage.
Lymphatic drainage therapy is a specialized type of massage that is designed to activate and cleanse the human fluid system. Lymphatic drainage has three main effects: it improves the circulation of lymph fluid throughout the body; it stimulates the activation of the immune system; and also stimulates the nervous system. This treatment is very beneficial before and after surgery.
