Side Effects
Side Effects
Side effects are extremely rare and are very short lived. They are NOT a sign of the therapy making it worse. It is a clearing process of your cells to flush out the toxins that were built up. It is referred to as Herxheimer reaction. Here are some of the temporary symptoms. If you drink water before and after each session this lowers the risk of these side effects even more.
-
Increased Fatigue
-
Headaches
-
Muscle aches or joint pain
-
Mild dizziness, nausea or sweating
-
Mild prickling sensation or skin flushing
