Dear Ronald Sherman,
At the beginning of the year, I predicted that 2010 would be a very special year for biotherapy, especially with the International Conference on Biotherapy (ICB-2010) coming up in November.
Now it looks like 2010 will be even "BeTER!" Running jointly with ICB-2010 will be the well-known and highly praised
Charles Mraz Apitherapy Course and International Conference (CMACC).
Both ICB-2010 and CMACC will take place November 11-14, 2010 at
the Hilton Los Angeles/Universal City. Attendees can participate in both events. Bee venom therapy (BVT) will be one of many biotherapies featured at ICB-2010 (more about this conference can be found in this newsletter, below, or at the website: Conference website: www.bterfoundation.org/icb/icb2010.htm). At the CMACC, attendees will learn not only about BVT but also about the medicinal use of other bee and beehive products, such as honey pollen,
propolis, royal jelly, and beeswax. Both conferences also include hands-on workshops trade exhibits with relevant products, books, and
resources.
Growing scientific evidence suggests that various bee
products promote healing by improving circulation, decreasing inflammation, and
stimulating a healthy immune response. Physicians, naturopaths, acupuncturists,
massage therapists, alternative medicine practitioners, researchers, beekeepers,
and anyone interested in apitherapy should attend and Celebrate the Honeybee.
Register now for ICB-2010 or CMACC before fees increase and hotel rooms run out!
