Reyah says:
There is nothing new about apitherapy; the healing properties of the hive have been demonstrated time and time again since the beginning of beekeeping. There are documents in China dating well over 2000 years regarding sting therapy, and the healing benefits from other honey bee made products. Hippocrates himself utilized live and dried honeybees in his practice referring to the venom as a ‘strange and mysterious medicine.’ After all, how could something that caused such initial pain, relieve pain? Something that causes initial inflammation, be anti-inflammatory? Indeed!
“Honeybees and their perfect society, are very mysterious, which I am sure is what keeps me focused on these marvelous creatures, and the medicine chest that offers something for everybody, known as ‘The Beehive’. Conditions and diseases from A to Z can be helped and improved through the use of something in that beehive. I see this on a daily basis, having given stings to over 2000 people from around the world, and to date having received over 25,000 stings myself. For now, BEE healthy, BEE happy.”
