Mistletoe Therapy at The Dempster Clinic
Restore Balance, Relieve Pain & Reconnect with Your Body
At The Dempster Clinic – Center for Functional Medicine, we are committed to offering safe, evidence-based, and holistic therapies that address the root causes of illness while supporting the body’s natural ability to heal. One of the most promising integrative cancer support treatments we provide is Mistletoe Therapy.
What is Mistletoe Therapy?
Unlike conventional drugs, mistletoe is a biological therapy. It is designed to restore balance and vitality, enhancing overall well-being in patients dealing with chronic illness, immune dysfunction, or cancer.
How Mistletoe Therapy Works
Research has shown that mistletoe extracts can:
- Stimulate and balance immune function – activating immune cells to strengthen the body’s defense system.
- Support healthy cell activity – encouraging natural cell repair while promoting apoptosis (programmed cell death) in abnormal cells.
- Protect the body during conventional treatment – reducing side effects of chemotherapy and radiation such as fatigue, nausea, poor appetite, and low energy.
- Enhance quality of life – many patients report better sleep, improved mood, and greater vitality while on mistletoe therapy.
Methods of Administration
At The Dempster Clinic, mistletoe therapy is offered in two forms, depending on your individual health profile and treatment plan:
- IV Infusions – delivers mistletoe extract directly into the bloodstream for maximum bioavailability and systemic benefit.
- IM (Intramuscular) Injections – a gentler option that can be administered in-clinic or taught for home use under guidance.
- Each treatment is personalized. We use different mistletoe extracts (Helixor® A, M, or P) depending on your needs, and adjust dosage gradually to ensure safety and effectiveness.

- Receiving conventional cancer therapies and looking for integrative support.
