Leech Therapy Safety and Contraindications

Hirudotherapy is a natural treatment, but it is not right for everyone. Dr. Konstantin Lakeev checks every patient at a free consultation before treatment starts.

FDA-approved medical leeches
Only FDA-approved medical leeches are used at Leech Therapy USA.

Who should not have leech therapy
Hirudotherapy is not used for people with:

Blood disorders
Low blood pressure
Pregnancy
Bleeding
Certain types of cancer

If you have one of these conditions, or you are not sure, tell the doctor at your consultation.

Tell the doctor about your medicines
Tell the doctor about every medicine you take, especially blood thinners.

Why a consultation comes first
Leech therapy looks simple, but it needs a professional. At the free consultation the doctor learns about your condition and decides whether hirudotherapy is right for you and how many sessions you need.
