"Helping People Help Themselves"

Hippocrates Health Institute was created over five decades ago to provide people with education about disease prevention, and the positive effects of a living foods diet. It is a birthright to live a healthy, happy life. Modern lifestyle choices have prevented many from achieving this goal. Hippocrates Health Institute strives to change this. The Hippocrates Health Institute philosophy is dedicated to the belief that a vegan, pure enzyme-rich diet, complemented by positive thinking and non-invasive therapies, are essential elements on the path to optimum health. For half of a century, Hippocrates Health Institute has provided the knowledge necessary to help people to heal themselves. HHI welcomes people from all walks of life, from those battling disease, to those looking to energize their lives. Originally founded in Boston, Massachusetts by Ann Wigmore, HHI’s campus is now located in beautiful West Palm Beach, FL. Currently directed by Drs. Brian and Anna Maria Clement, the work of the founders expands and flourishes. Natural approaches to healthcare have begun to receive international recognition as science has proven the positive effects of wheatgrass and a raw, living-foods diet. Hippocrates Health Institute is the right choice for those looking to achieve a vibrant state of well-being.

The Healing Powers of Lasers


                                Low level laser therapy has been used in Europe and other countries for about 30 years. The United States is finally beginning to experience the benefits of this amazing technology. Laser treatment is rapidly gaining acceptance by the healthcare and medical professionals as a superior treatment methodology. Laser Therapy is unique in that it actually stimulates the body to heal from within. Photons (little packets) of light are administered to the body and absorbed by the injured cells without producing heat. The cells are then stimulated and respond with a higher rate of metabolism. This results in increased circulation from the body, an anti-inflammatory reaction, relief from pain and an acceleration of the healing process.
                Laser Therapy is absorbed by chromophores (molecule enzymes) which react to laser light. This starts the production of ATP (adenosine-triphosphate) which is the major carrier of cell energy and the energy source for all chemical reactions in the cells. Laser Therapy also decreases inflammation mainly because it activates the lymphatic drainage system (drains swollen areas). As a result there is a reduction in swelling caused by bruising. This unique therapy also has a high beneficial effect on nerve cells by blocking pain transmitted by these cells to the brain and by decreasing nerve sensitivity. Also due to less inflammation there is less edema and less pain. Laser light stimulates fibroblast development in damaged tissue. Fibroblasts are the building blocks of collagen which is predominant in wound healing. Collagen is the essential protein required to replace old tissue or to repair tissue injuries. As a result, Laser Therapy is effective on open wounds and burns.
Here is a real testimony on the low level lasers:
“I have suffered from Psoriatic Rheumatoid Arthritis for 8 years. I received chemotherapy, many anti-inflammatory drugs, and cortisone and none of them worked. I met Dr. Larry and he demonstrated the laser on my hand that I could not open. After the demonstration, I could not open my hand and the pain was gone!”
