Injection Therapy
Injection Therapy (also known as biopuncture therapy) is the same as normal intramuscular injection and subcutaneous injection as far as how they are administered. However, they differ in the location of the body where they are administered. Homeopathic injections such as Traumeel are administered in acupuncture and trigger points throughout the body depending on the condition treated or area of the body that is injured.
Trameel is a natural anti-inflammatory alternative to cortisone shots. Because of the nature of homeopathic remedies, there is no limit to the usage of these injections, it does not interfere with other treatments, and it does not have side effects.
