“There are no incurable diseases, only incurable patients.”
Bernie Siegel

Welcome to the homepage of Dr Wolf’s Centre for Hyperthermia in Hannover.

Before I devoted myself to alternative healing methods over 25 years ago, I was a specialist in internal medicine and psychosomatics at the Medical University of Hannover. During that time I gradually realized that the methods employed by orthodox medicine can be very helpful when dealing with acute illnesses; however, they often reach their limits when applied to chronic disease.

Since over 70 percent of all illnesses develop into chronic disease, it is more than obvious that the majority of patients do not receive adequate help or treatment. Many of these patients run a desperate gamut from pillar to post. Often enough they are told that they are only imagining their illness. Unfortunately, this still happens in many cases even to this day.

As I became ever more frustrated with the powerlessness of orthodox medicine, I began to learn more about alternative healing methods (including various types of cancer therapy) and discovered the potential in this area of medicine, in particular when dealing with the chronically ill.

That is why we offer a variety of alternative and complementary forms of therapy at the Centre for Hyperthermia in Hannover, of which I am the founder. These different forms of therapy have proven to be effective in the long term, even in many cases where orthodox medicine has given up on the patients. Our clinic is especially concerned with the disease of cancer, which despite the most modern technology is still the most frequent cause of death.

We have been able to achieve extremely positive results with modern hyperthermia treatment, i.e. the overheating method. For even though hyperthermia is not recognised by orthodox medicine as a full treatment for cancer, it has proven to be considerably successful, both on its own and as complemental or alternative cancer therapy.

In this respect a study on the effect of regional deep hyperthermia in the treatment of cancer of the bladder has been published by the University of Erlangen. It shows that 80 percent of patients participating in the study who received hyperthermia treatment were still alive after five years, compared to only 67 percent of the study group who did not receive hyperthermia treatment. The tendency toward invasive growth and toward the formation of metastases was able to be significantly reduced as well. The evaluation of the study showed that the frequency of treatment was directly connected to the survival rate: The more frequently patients were treated with overheating the better they became. Studies from The Netherlands and Italy have confirmed these results.

The fact that cancer cells do not like heat is not a new discovery. The American surgeon William Coley (1862-1936) had already observed that cancer patients often completely recovered if they had a severe inflammation of the wound accompanied by high fever after an operation.

Today we know what was behind these ‘miracle healings’: Contrary to healthy tissue, cancer cells cannot easily divert heat because of their primitive blood supply. This results in a build-up of heat, which leads to an inadequate supply of oxygen to the tumour cells and a consequent lack of nutrients in the tumour. These deficiencies lead in turn to disturbances in the metabolic processes of dividing and maintaining cells, including the failure of the repair systems of the cells. Thus thermal (i.e. those damaged by hyperthermia) cell components cannot be replaced, which can lead to the death of the tumour cells.

Therefore, as tumour cells are extremely sensitive to heat, the aim of the hyperthermia treatment is to destroy them or restrain their growth by temperatures in excess of 39.5°C. Healthy tissue is not affected by the heat when hyperthermia is applied correctly. Furthermore, it has become apparent over the last years that hyperthermia can increase the effectiveness of chemotherapy or radiation treatment. National and international studies have shown that cytostatics are significantly more aggressive at temperatures above 40°C than at normal body temperature. In individual cases previously unsuccessful conventional therapy can become effective with an accompanying hyperthermia treatment.

This has been proven in a randomised study with over 340 patients who had sarcomas in the soft parts of the body. Patients who received chemotherapy together with local hyperthermia treatment lived an average of 32 months without further signs of the disease; in comparison, those patients in the control group without hyperthermia treatment remained without any further symptoms of the disease for only 18 months.
Our clinic offers various types of hyperthermia treatment as alternative cancer therapy. These include:

• Whole body hyperthermia, where the entire body except for the head is overheated to a temperature of 39.5 to 40.5°C.
• Loco-regional hyperthermia, where the overheating is concentrated on the affected organ or tissue. In this case temperatures reach between 42 and 44 degrees Celsius.
• Prostate gland hyperthermia, where in addition to the heat an electrical field made up of radio short waves is created by means of a special medical device. Contrary to the microwaves that used to be applied, the radio short waves have a greater range and cause considerably less damage to healthy tissue.

One hyperthermia treatment usually takes between one and three hours. Since I am committed to the serious, holistic and effective treatment of my patients, the entire clinic staff are trained on a regular basis in order to be able to adequately put into practice any new developments and results of studies. Of course, the various treatments that the Centre offers are explained in detail to every patient, including reference to the orthodox school of medicine. As has been confirmed again and again in various studies, a combination of the therapy methods from both schools of thought is often more effective than one or the other on its own.
