A journey into the world of apitherapy

As habitat loss and climate change poses an increasing threat to the bee population, their existence has never been more relevant. This independent doc explores the crucial role of nature's smallest healer.

Apitherapy —the use of bees and bee products for medicinal purposes — dates back to ancient civilizations. Now, meet those turning back to this rare healing practice: “The first time I had api-acupuncture, I realized how the bee sting gave me energy and a desire for life”. Dermatology allergist Dr Gunter Sturm uses the sting to treat his patients with severe allergies, explaining that “80-100% of patients are fully protected after bee venom immunotherapy”.
