        IV Immunonutrition Therapy

        IV Immunonutrition Therapy

        IV immunonutrition Therapy was established according to the guidelines and based on a strong scientific basis. Thousands of scientific articles have confirmed the effectiveness of IV Therapy in the management of Diseases, Antioxidant and Detoxifying effects, increase energy levels, Improve Memory and Concentration, and Improves Alzheimer’s Disease symptoms. 

        Dr. Shahid Abbas, Consultant – Allergy and Immunology at Westminster Ortho Med Clinic, Dubai along with his colleagues in the USA, started using nutrient IV therapy around 1990. So far, the results have been miraculous, and most importantly perhaps – IV therapy with micro-and macronutrients is generally considered to be one of the safest outpatient procedures. Along with Dr. Shrader, practicing in Santa Fe USA, we have administered more than 12000 IV therapies with minimal reactions only in 2 patients which were only due to the added preservatives.  

        In fact, Intravenous therapy with nutrients does not cause any adverse reactions that may be observed with the administration of intravenous antibiotics and painkillers. Additionally, nutritional products for intravenous use have been extensively refined over the last several years and are now easily available without any preservatives.

        EFFICACY OF IV IMMUNONUTRITION THERAPY

        IV immunonutrition therapy is the only delivery method that provides 100% bioavailability, directly into the bloodstream while bypassing the GI Tract for instant benefits. Using metabolic elements, the osmolarity and infusion rates of each vitamin formulation are carefully calculated. Each IV Drip provides highly concentrated combinations of vitamins based on parenteral micronutrient therapy science. IV Drips consist of all-natural bio-identical vitamins and nutrients that are naturally found in our bodies and in organic foods we consume.

        With our IV immunonutrition therapy Drips/IV Push, You Not Only Will Feel Better But will also look better.

        HOW VITAMIN AND MINERAL IV INFUSIONS BENEFIT YOUR HEALTH

        Because vitamin and mineral oral supplements require extensive assimilation and conversion processes that begin in the liver or stomach, the body does not receive the high levels of pure nutrition provided by oral Vitamin Mineral Capsules/Tablets. Oral vitamins and minerals can usually result in gastrointestinal problems such as nausea, diarrhea, and cramping.

              Wellness Services

              The past couple of years weren’t exactly what anyone could have predicted. With the coronavirus pandemic, routines were disrupted, and many people started to work from home. The commute time was put back into their jobs. Those who couldn’t work remotely began investing a lot more time and care into trying to stay safe and protecting others. This new working challenge during a crisis has left many of us depleted over the long term.

              For most, it affected their physical health and negatively impacted their weight as well as mental wellbeing. This demands a re-prioritization of self-care. That commute time needs to convert to wellness time. We need to take better care of ourselves moving forward, and that might entail a bit of creativity.

              Keeping this in mind, we have launched “Westminster Wellness Services” to promote the overall Physical and Mental Well-being of an individual. This therapeutic strategy enables each practitioner, often in conjunction with the patient, to contribute their knowledge and expertise towards providing individualized healthcare plans through a holistic approach by educating individuals, families, and communities on health promotion, disease prevention, public health issues, and appropriate care-seeking.

                FAQ's

                Do I need a doctor’s referral to start physiotherapy?

                No referral is required. You can book directly with our physiotherapy team for assessment and treatment, though we also coordinate closely with orthopedic consultants when needed.

                How do I know if physiotherapy is right for my condition?

                Physiotherapy is suitable for pain, stiffness, injury, or movement limitations. An initial assessment helps determine whether conservative rehabilitation or specialist referral is most appropriate.

                How many physiotherapy sessions will I need?

                The number of sessions depends on your condition, goals, and response to treatment. Some issues improve within a few sessions, while others require structured longer-term rehabilitation.

                Is physiotherapy painful?

                Physiotherapy should not be painful, though some discomfort may occur during recovery. Our approach prioritizes safe, controlled progress while respecting your pain tolerance.

                Can physiotherapy help me avoid surgery?

                In many cases, yes. Physiotherapy can significantly improve function and reduce pain, potentially delaying or eliminating the need for surgical intervention.

                Do you provide post-surgical rehabilitation?

                Yes. We offer structured post-operative rehabilitation programs designed in coordination with orthopedic consultants to support safe and effective recovery.

                What should I wear to my physiotherapy session?

                Comfortable clothing that allows free movement is recommended. This helps ensure accurate assessment and effective treatment during your session.

                Will I be given exercises to do at home?

                Yes. Home exercises are an essential part of recovery and are tailored to your condition to support progress between sessions.

                What is dry needling, and how does it work?

                Dry needling involves inserting thin needles into trigger points or tight muscles to relieve tension and pain. It’s particularly effective for treating conditions like myofascial pain syndrome and muscle spasms. Our trained physiotherapists in Dubai use this technique to provide targeted relief.

                Do you provide physiotherapy for children and adolescents?

                Yes, we offer pediatric physiotherapy to address developmental delays, postural issues, and sports injuries in children and adolescents. Our child-friendly approach ensures young patients feel comfortable while receiving effective care.

                How long does a typical physiotherapy session last?

                A standard physiotherapy session at Westminster Clinic lasts between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the treatment plan. The duration may vary based on the condition being treated and the progress made during each visit.

                How many physiotherapy sessions will I need?

                The number of sessions depends on your condition, its severity, and your response to treatment. During your initial assessment, our physiotherapist will outline a treatment plan and provide an estimate of the required sessions to achieve your goals.

                How soon should I start physiotherapy after an injury?

                Early intervention is often beneficial. Starting physiotherapy promptly can reduce recovery time, prevent complications, and improve long-term outcomes.

                Are your physiotherapy services covered by insurance?

                Many insurance plans in Dubai cover physiotherapy services, but coverage may vary based on your provider and policy. Our team can assist you in verifying your insurance and understanding the reimbursement process.

                Can physiotherapy help with long-standing or chronic pain?

                Absolutely. Chronic pain physiotherapy focuses on improving movement, reducing sensitivity, and restoring function rather than only addressing symptoms.

                  Ayurveda Medicine

                  Ayurveda Medicine Services

                  Ayurveda emphasizes good health and prevention and treatment of illness through lifestyle practices (such as massage, meditation, yoga, and dietary changes) and the use of herbal remedies. Ayurveda, or ayurvedic medicine, is a healthy-lifestyle system that people in India have used for more than 5,000 years. Ayurvedic medicine is holistic, which means viewing the body and mind as a whole. Ayurveda not only treats a person’s physical complaints but also changes lifestyle practices to help maintain or improve health.

                  Ayurveda encompasses various techniques for assessing health. The practitioner carefully evaluates key signs and symptoms of illness, especially in relation to the origin and cause of an imbalance. They also consider the patient’s suitability for various treatments. The practitioner arrives at diagnosis through direct questioning, observation, and a physical exam, as well as inference. Basic techniques such as taking the pulse, observing the tongue, eyes, and physical form; and listening to the tone of the voice are employed during an assessment.

                  Palliative and cleansing measures, when appropriate, can be used to help eliminate an imbalance along with suggestions for eliminating or managing the causes of the imbalance. Recommendations may include the implementation of lifestyle changes; starting and maintaining a suggested diet; and the use of herbs. In some cases, participating in a cleansing program, called panchakarma, is suggested to help the body rid itself of accumulated toxins to gain more benefit from the various suggested measures of treatment.

                    What types of allergies are treated at Westminster Clinic in Dubai?

                    At Westminster Clinic, we treat a broad spectrum of allergies, including those caused by food, pollen, dust mites, pet dander, insect stings, and certain medications. Additionally, we address chronic allergy-related conditions such as asthma, allergic rhinitis, eczema, and urticaria (hives). Given Dubai’s climate, we also focus on environmental allergies triggered by factors like sandstorms and high humidity.

                    What are the most common allergy symptoms, and when should I seek help?

                    Common allergy symptoms include persistent sneezing, nasal congestion, watery or itchy eyes, skin rashes, hives, and difficulty breathing. Severe symptoms like swelling of the face or throat, dizziness, or anaphylaxis require immediate medical attention. If these symptoms interfere with your daily life, it’s crucial to seek expert advice from our clinic in Dubai Healthcare City.

                    How are allergies diagnosed at Westminster Clinic?

                    Our diagnostic process begins with a detailed consultation to understand your symptoms and medical history. We use advanced testing methods such as skin prick tests, patch testing, and blood tests (IgE levels) to accurately identify allergens. This approach ensures a precise diagnosis, enabling us to create a personalized treatment plan.

                    What is allergen immunotherapy, and who is it suitable for?

                    Allergen immunotherapy, commonly known as allergy shots, is a long-term treatment designed to reduce sensitivity to specific allergens. It involves administering small, controlled doses of allergens over time to build immunity. This therapy is ideal for patients with severe, persistent allergies who don’t respond well to medications. It’s particularly effective for conditions like hay fever and dust mite allergies, which are common in Dubai.

                    What treatment options are available for food allergies?

                    Our approach to food allergies includes comprehensive testing to identify triggers, dietary guidance to avoid allergens, and emergency response plans. For severe cases, we educate patients on the use of epinephrine auto-injectors and help them manage their lifestyle safely. We also provide guidance for navigating Dubai’s food scene, including restaurants and grocery options.

                    Can allergies trigger asthma, and how do you treat it?

                    Yes, allergic reactions can trigger or worsen asthma, a condition characterized by airway inflammation and difficulty breathing. At Westminster Clinic, we treat allergy-induced asthma through a combination of medications, inhalers, and allergen control strategies. By managing the underlying allergy, we aim to minimize asthma symptoms and improve your quality of life.

                    What are some common allergens in Dubai, and how can they be managed?

                    Common allergens in Dubai include dust mites, pollen from desert plants, mold, and pet dander. Environmental factors like sandstorms and high humidity levels can exacerbate symptoms. Our specialists provide practical advice, such as using air purifiers, keeping windows closed during high pollen seasons, and regular cleaning to minimize exposure to these allergens.

                    How are skin allergies like eczema or hives treated?

                    Skin allergies, including eczema and hives, are treated with a combination of topical creams, antihistamines, and advanced therapies like biologics for severe cases. Our dermatology and allergy teams work closely together to ensure effective treatment. We also provide guidance on skincare routines tailored for Dubai’s climate to prevent flare-ups.

                    What is the process for managing seasonal allergies in Dubai?

                    Seasonal allergies caused by pollen, dust, or changing weather patterns are common in Dubai. We manage these allergies with antihistamines, nasal sprays, and allergen immunotherapy. Additionally, we provide lifestyle recommendations such as wearing masks during sandstorms and reducing outdoor activities during peak pollen hours.

                    Allergies can develop at any age, even in individuals who have never experienced symptoms before. Late-onset allergies are often triggered by environmental changes, stress, or dietary shifts. Our specialists offer personalized management strategies to address new allergies effectively.

                    What is the difference between allergy symptoms and cold symptoms?

                    While allergies and colds share symptoms like sneezing and nasal congestion, allergies are typically triggered by specific allergens and do not cause fever or body aches. Allergies also tend to persist for longer periods if untreated. Our team can help differentiate between the two through diagnostic testing and consultation.

                    What are immune deficiencies, and how are they treated?

                    Immune deficiencies occur when the immune system fails to function properly, leading to frequent infections or difficulty fighting illnesses. Our immunology specialists provide advanced testing to diagnose immune deficiencies and recommend treatments, including medications, lifestyle changes, and, in some cases, immunoglobulin therapy.

                    How do I prepare for my first appointment with an allergist?

                    Before your consultation, keep a detailed diary of your symptoms, including when they occur and any suspected triggers. Bring medical records, a list of medications, and details about your family’s medical history. This information helps our specialists in Dubai provide a thorough evaluation and accurate diagnosis.
