Bee Venom
Natural anti-inflammatory.

Bee Venom therapy can be useful in a wide variety of medical situations.  Charles Mraz, a beekeeper in Middlebury, Vermont who has popularized bee venom therapy for the past 60 years, says that it is reasonable to try bee venom therapy in any clinical situation where nothing else works.

There are physicians around who use bee venom therapy in their practices.  This is done by obtaining the venom (in sterilized vials) and injecting it under the skin, sometimes mixed with a local anesthetic.  Some say that collecting the venom in vials loses some of its potency, but in many situations this is more realistic than finding a beekeeper or handling bees.

Side effects of bee venom therapy are generally limited, since the inflammation, swelling, itching, etc. are desired effects.  However, the risk of an anaphylactic allergic reaction to bee venom is real, and it is always wise to have a bee sting allergy kit on hand.  Fortunately, most "bee" sting allergic reactions are actually to yellow jackets or wasps.  Honey bee venom does not necessarily cross-react, and some studies show honey bee stings to account for less than 5% of all adverse stinging insect reactions.  In addition, many people who have been severe local reactions to bee stings, which an apitherapist would consider a positive effect, are incorrectly considered to have allergy to bees.

BEE IN BALANCE was written out of love--for those suffering with chronic pain who might be helped by a wonderful discovery I made four years ago--apitherapy (the use of honeybee products for medicinal purposes) married to the ancient art of acupuncture. I call this technique "bee acupuncture." I have seen bee acupuncture help so many so much, that the need to share this miraculous new method has become the primary focus of my work and my life. Thus was born Bee in Balance. It describes both my journey to and through this discovery, as well as a thorough discussion of the technique itself and the results it's produced.
