Experience and healing power from nature at naturheilzentrum bottrop – snake venom therapy
More than three decades of snake medicine expertise
A fascinating example of this is Snakemed therapy or “snake venom treatment”. Complex active ingredients from animal venoms often offer options that should not be underestimated in the accompanying therapy of various chronic diseases.
The focus is always on a holistic approach: precisely because the dose makes the poison, the type of toxin used (such as that of the snake) can be highly individualized with appropriate experience, e.g. in the case of recurring or permanent complaints, represent an optimal therapy.
Snake venom in naturopathy: scientific principles and therapeutic potential
Today, intensive scientific research into medical contexts is revealing the diverse mechanisms of action of venena (poisons). Their therapeutic potential is increasingly better understood and therefore used more effectively for medical treatments. The knowledge gained is also increasingly being used in the pharmacological development of new drugs.
Snake Medicine / Snake Med in the focus of research
Due to their effects and new research approaches, snake venoms offer the possibility of developing future drugs. With today’s knowledge, various toxins and protein classes may be available for the production of improved drugs, e.g. against bacterial pathogens, as published by the Leibniz Association in its Research News in 2023. New analgesics (painkillers) are also a focus here, as the Ärzteblatt reported back in 2012 on the study on pain relief using snake venom.

Snake venom injection: from venom to allergy remedy – naturopaths and doctors with experience
The Bottrop-based naturopaths Farid Zitoun and Christan Rüger can now draw on more than 30 years of experience in snake venom treatment (SnakeMed) as directors of the institution for complementary medicine. The focus of the extensive therapy spectrum is based not least on the experience and expertise of Düsseldorf-based colleague and alternative practitioner Norbert Zimmermann (ret.D.) or Dr. Ulrich Icks (†) from Westoverledingen, who was also known for his unconventional work in snake venom medicine for skin diseases (such as psoriasis, neurodermatitis and allergy). The focus in Bottrop as well as Düsseldorf or Westoverledingen (Lower Saxony): alternative healing methods, with the aim of avoiding side effects as far as possible in order to support the healing process of a diseased organism in the best case gently and regeneratively.
Competence at the Center for Naturopathy: Snake venom treatment Düsseldorf – Bottrop
Snake Medicine (snake venom therapy) has a correspondingly long tradition in naturopathy. The extracted pure toxins are used, for example, in homeopathic preparations (pure toxin therapy). Studies and clinical observations indicate that highly diluted snake venom preparations have positive effects on hay fever (allergies), inflammatory autoimmune diseases such as neurodermatitis, psoriasis or rheumatic complaints (arthrosis / arthritis). However, science and the media are also focusing on the experiences of patients at the Center for Naturopathic Medicine in Düsseldorf, Bottrop and Westoverledingen when it comes to the potential effect of animal toxins in pain therapy, among other things.
Safe with experience – snake venom medicine: active ingredients, dosage & administration
Animal venoms such as snake venom serums consist of complex biologically active substances, various proteins, peptides and types of enzymes, which can be used as syringes (injections) in corresponding individual dosages. Studies have shown that over 50 different bioactive components (enzymes) are contained in snake venoms, which enable potential therapeutic applications (e.g. as enzyme therapy). While a snake bite can have serious health consequences, empirical medicine has shown over the last three decades that extracts (pure toxins) can be used in highly diluted homeopathic doses for specific medical purposes, particularly for chronic diseases.
In addition to professional application, controlled administration and a sound knowledge of the pharmacological mode of action, an optimal therapeutic goal of 12 to 14 individually determined treatments requires precise individual adjustment of the dosage to the respective patient situation.
