Combination Therapy
Combination Therapy for Long Covid, Post Vac Syndrome and Chronic Illnesses
In the field of HIV and cancer, combination therapy is one of the most successful forms of treatment - often it is the gold standard in the specific field.
Together with contributors all around the world and through our clinical experience combined with patient-led knowledge we have developed Combination Therapy for Long Covid, Post Vac Syndrome and Chronic Illnesses.
We named it after it's place of origin:
'The Cyprus Protocol' - an Open Source / Open Medicine Protocol.
Our Combination Therapy 'The Cyprus Protocol' combines several therapy forms
The Cyprus Protocol Elements
Klick on the each element of the Cyprus Protocol for more details
Our most effective treatment to date: At the core of our combination therapy is H.E.L.P. Apheresis - a highly selective apheresis form - a special blood purification by precipitation/adsorption procedure. It serves to treat microcirculation / blood flow issues (microclots are removed, blood flow increased) and removes pathogenic or disease-sustaining proteins and protein-bound substances from the blood. It selectively removes amongst other substances inflammation proteins, viral spike protein, cholesterol + autoantibodies. Learn more about H.E.L.P. Apheresis here.
Long Covid and many other Chronic Illnesses are at their root an endothelitis/vasculitis with severe inflammation, combined with hypercoagulation and viral persistence. IV treatments work directly where needed the most: in the blood vessels in the desired concentration.
IV/Intravenous therapies that are used in our Long Covid and Chronic Illnesses Combination Therapy are:
- IV Vitamin C (Reducing inflammation)
- IV Glutathione (Antioxidant)
- IV Multivitamin Protocol (Balancing deficiencies)
- IV NAD+ (Metabolism/mitochondria benefits)
- IV Alpha Lipoic Acid (Metabolism/nerve pain reduction)
- IV Zinc (Reducing inflammation, speeding up recovery)
- IV Magnesium (Electrolyte reducing fatigue and anxiety)
- IV NAC (Reduces brainfog/relieves respiratory discomfort)
- IV Taurin (Is Cytoprotective (cell protective) and detoxyfying)
- IV Arginine (Increases elasticity of blood vessels and increases blood flow)
- IV Lysine (Increases cell healing and wound healing)
- Other IVs: Iron, Selenium, Amino Acids, Minerals

Medication and supplement protocols increase H.E.L.P. Apheresis results further and can be used to treat patients symptom-specific.
Symptoms the medication protocols focus on are:
- Viral persistence
- Persisting hyper coagulation
- MCAS (mastcell activation syndrome), often combined with gastroparesis
- Endothelial damage, often combined with hypercholesterolaemia
- Neuroinflammation/braininflammation
- Fatigue, PEM often combined with mitochondrial dysfunction
- Insomnia
- Induced anxiety/paranoia/depression
- Reactivated viruses
- Others
A stellate ganglion block (SGB) is a single- or doublesided injection of anesthetic medication into a collection of nerves called the stellate ganglion. Many patients experienced an alleviation of dysautonomia symptoms following a stellate ganglion block. Other symptoms that improved or resolved were: anxiety/PTSD, arosmia and parosmia. The positive effects of a stellate ganglion block can sometimes last, but often are temporary (which is fine as it gives the body a 'time-out' to regenerate.
For specific symptoms and subgroups after H.E.L.P Apheresis treatment these treatments can speed up and enforce the recovery process. (Note: HBOT/Ozone-EBOO will only be administered after Help Apheresis in special cases)
Many of our last year's patients had to come back to us for another round of H.E.L.P. Apheresis and Combination Therapy treatment, because they reinfected with Covid and were thrown back to severe Long Covid. This is why we started giving out 'Early Treatment packages' which avoid exactly that. Our prescribing doctors will supply you with everything needed to get through your next reinfection without risking to worsen again.

Testimonials
Jed Bennett, Post-Vac and Long Covid, Australia
In this talk Markus and Jed discuss how Combination Therapy brought Jed from having to fly with assisted flying and oxygen support to our island to being almost symptom-free within 3 weeks. Jed had anticoagulation therapy, antiviral therapy and intravenous (IV) treatments of NAD+, Alphalipoic Acid and Glutathione/VitC/Magnesium combined with 5 Help Apheresis treatments. He suffered from a blend of vaccine injury with Long Covid. All his symptoms are gone after 3 weeks except minor fatigue and chest pain if he overexerts himself.

Stephen Bradshaw, Long Covid, Australia
'I arrived here practically in a wheelchair, I had not been well for a very long time. I did all of my own research before I left Australia and Help Apheresis seemed to have the answers to help fix me. From the minute you walk into the clinic, the staff could not be more friendly. They seem to have blended the German efficiency and the Cypriot hospitality. It is such a warm environment to be treated, the staff is incredible, they put me so much at ease with their kindness. The treatment itself is not that invasive, especially if you have the catheter because it means you can have your hands free and read et cetera. Now after treatment Nr. 4 I feel fantastic, but I still have to finish the course of 6 treatments because the filters are still coming out blocked. Overall I can't thank the clinic enough, the treatment has been fantastic. Overall it has been a fantastic experience, I could not recommend it highly enough. When I realized there is a clinic in Cyprus, the fact that it is a beautiful island made the choice of me and my wife easy. It is a great place to recover and heal by the sea. My advice to other patients is to do your own research, work out if you have micro-clotting which is easy to understand if you follow the symptoms. And then do what it takes to get this treatment to get your life back.'

Verena Hunger, Post Vac Syndrome, Austria
Verena had already tried every possible treatment when she came to our clinic, she even tried Immunoadsorption before and it helped her with the neurological symptoms she was having, but it didn't help with the fatigue. Unfortunately, three months after her Immunoadsorption, she got worse again as it’s effect was temporary.
But then Combination Therapy with Help Apheresis got her out of bed and the wheelchair: ‘I had an enormous benefit from Help Apheresis. So huge! My stay here at your clinic Cyprus has definitely changed my life, I am very, very grateful!’
She also shares her experience on how easy her travel to Cyprus was with the help of our partner Thomas from TravelSupportCyprus who took care of everything travel and medical travel related for her, so she did not have to worry or stress about anything. She arrived well rested and with literally no travel burden. Beforehand she had thought travelling to Cyprus would be much more difficult.

Jeremy Smith, Long Covid, United States
'I had 4 Help Apheresis treatments last year in Germany. They brought me back to 80% of my former capacity. Unfortunately I reinfected with Covid again after and as I did not have Early Treatment packages back then, my Long Covid came back with even more symptoms.
I decided to go for Combination Therapy with Help Apheresis at the Apheresis Center in Cyprus. I was put on the clinics' MCAS protocol a few weeks prior to my arrival and I arrived with my MCAS being much better already. Now I am receiving Help Apheresis, IV treatments and medication protocols since three weeks and my symptoms are mostly gone already, I could even have a beer yesterday for the first time again and enjoy the beach, no more pain and anxiety!
The Apheresis Center is a totally different experience and I am super happy I chose Cyprus. It is very different from Germany. The doctors, nurses and the whole team are doing everything to bring me back to my full capacity, their knowledge about Long Covid and the individually adapted treatment is great - a real concierge medicine experience! I missed home last year in Germany - here in Cyprus not a single day, we even extended our stay and will come back next year for holidays!'

Heidi Hansen, Long Covid, United States
'After having been bedridden for over a year with extreme spinal pain, heavy fatigue, brain fog, POTS and further debilitating symptoms, I got on a plane to Cyprus and I had 7 Help Apheresis treatments. I got better after the first treatment, but after the third treatment I could walk out of the clinic without any troubles. I now have access to the world again - it has given me so much of my life back - it is so wonderful! Your staff is amazing, they are so sweet! Rafailia is a genius with finding good veins, she is the best I have ever seen!'

Katrina Krulla, Long Covid, United States
'I have had some amazing results with H.E.L.P. Apheresis for my Long Covid - my 6th treatment got me back to feeling 75% to 90% recovered. Larnaca was truly an amazing place for recovery. Also the great community for support that formed with others getting treatment was so wonderful. It was so nice to have a team of people helping you that "got it" and believed you in addition to being with others suffering the same life changing illness.'

Landen Williams, Long Covid, US
Patricia has been suffering from severe MECFS since 2015:
'My Help Apheresis treatment improved my ME by 80%. Help Apheresis took me from being mostly bed bound 23 hours a day - I could not be upright without my heart jumping to 170 beats per minute, even higher if I tried to have a shower - to being able to be upright and be mobile almost every day. It changed my life! I can now manage my own life again. I can go outside again and I was able to gain weight and can now eat three solid meals a day again!
