The Journey to Becoming a Certified Mistletoe Provider

  • December 2, 2024
  • Written by :  Rebecca LaMarca, MSN, APN-BC, CNS

IV Elements is certified by the Physicians’ Association for Anthropic Medicine (PAAM) in mistletoe therapy.

Founder Rebecca LaMarca completed a nearly 30-hour mistletoe and integrative oncology course hosted by PAAM in Atlanta in February 2023 to become a certified mistletoe provider.

She’s currently completing an apprenticeship program to be a Believe Big provider. Believe Big is a Maryland-based nonprofit that bridges the gap between conventional and complementary medicine to provide holistic care at the physical, emotional and spiritual level.

Getting hands-on mistletoe experience in Germany

In September 2024, Rebecca spent two weeks in Germany learning about mistletoe therapy. She visited Helixor Heilmittel GmbH, an anthroposophic company based in Filderstadt that focuses on manufacturing and distributing mistletoe and Christmas rose.

Rebecca also visited Filderklinik Community Hospital, one of nine hospitals in Germany that offers not only conventional medicine and oncologic treatment, but also anthroposophic medicine options, including mistletoe IV therapy.

Visiting Abnoba and Klinik Öschelbronn

Later in the trip, Rebecca traveled to Niefern-Oeschelbronn to Abnoba and Klinik Öschelbronn.

Abnoba is a research-based pharmaceutical manufacturer that produces and sells mistletoe, specifically a viscum commonly used for intratumoral injections called Fraxini. As IV Elements treats many solid tumor patients, specifically breast cancer patients, it was a great experience to learn more about all the intratumoral and lymph node injections performed with different types of mistletoe in Germany.

Klinik Öschelbronn is an outpatient facility that uses Abnoba products in conjunction with conventional medicine treatments for cancer patients, in addition to hyperthermia and other anthroposophic medicine. Klinik Öschelbronn works with Abnona to produce many mistletoe research studies that help support integrative therapy for cancer patients.

Get at-home mistletoe injections with IV Elements

Our recommended treatment protocol for mistletoe injections includes four series of three subcutaneous injections a week:

  • Mistletoe (Abietis, Mali, Pini) Series 1: (1ml x 7 ampules) 1mg x 3, 5mg x 3, 10mg x 1
  • Mistletoe (Abietis, Mali, Pini) Series 2: (1ml x 7 ampules) 10mg x 2, 20mg x 2, 30mg x 3
  • Mistletoe (Abietis, Mali, Pini) Series 3: (1ml x 8 ampules) 30mg
  • Mistletoe (Abietis, Mali, Pini) Series 4: (1ml x 8 ampules) 50mg

Caffeine addiction is REAL! Luckily, there’s an all natural solution 🤎
If you feel like you are relying on caffeine to get through the day, it’s likely your cells need a major RESET.
Caffeine affects our cells by:
✔️ Blocking adenosine receptors
✔️ Increasing cAMP
✔️ Stimulating the mitochondira
These functions contribute to the natrual way our body responds to fatigue, energy production and nerve signaling. When you drink too much caffeine. the he body starts to rely on it for proper function. This is the tell tale sign your cells need a reset!
If you feel your cells need a reset, consult with our trusted practioners and become part of our community so you can give your cells the nutrients it deserves this year and get back to feeling like yourself again!

🌿 Story time with our nurse: A 40-year-old client came in struggling with extreme fatigue, brain fog, weakness, and numbness in her hands and feet. After running functional labs, we discovered high arsenic levels—signs of arsenic poisoning. With her active gardening lifestyle, exposure had accumulated over time. Our treatment plan included IV chelation therapy with disodium EDTA, helping to safely remove toxins and restore energy, clarity, and overall wellness.
Early detection of arsenic poisoning is key to recovery. Addressing arsenic poisoning with proper lab testing and treatment can dramatically improve quality of life.
