Hyperthermia treatment

Has anyone tried hyperthermia treatment for tumors? Not many places use this treatment in the states. Just wondering how well it works.

Re: Hyperthermia treatment

I'd be wary of this and have never heard any good results from it.

Re: Hyperthermia treatment

A friend has been to Biomed Klinik in Germany and it cleared all tumors except some bone mets. My choice now in the U.S. is to start Carboplatin or try hyperthermia in Germany. I will be calling this number tomorrow to get more information. + 49 (0) 6343 705 0
