Oligotherapy
Definition
Oligotherapy is a therapeutic approach that uses trace elements (oligo-elements) — minerals required by the human body in very small amounts — to help regulate and support biological functions.
Oligo-elements (such as zinc, copper, manganese, selenium, chromium, etc.) are essential for enzymatic reactions, immune defense, metabolism, and cellular balance.
In oligotherapy, these elements are given in very small doses, usually as solutions or lozenges, to correct functional imbalances and support the body’s natural regulation.
Diathesis
-
Allergy / Arthritism → violent reactions, rapid toxin elimination. Oligoelements: Manganese, Sulfur, Iodine.
-
Hyposthenia / Arthro-tuberculosis → fatigue increasing during the day, needs rest. Oligoelements: Mn-Cu, Cu-Au-Ag; + Phosphorus, Silica, Fluorine.
-
Dystonia / Neuro-arthritism → tissue rigidity, muscle loss, hardened vessels, metabolic overload. Oligoelements: Mn-Co, Cobalt, Magnesium.
-
Anergy → weak defenses, deep fatigue, apathy, resignation. Oligoelements: Cu-Au-Ag, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Lithium.
-
Maladaptation → inability to cope with life stress/events. Oligoelement: Zn-Cu.
