What Is H.E.L.P. Apheresis Therapy?
Suffering from Long Covid, Post-Covid, Post-Vac Syndrome or a chronic illness? Therapeutic Apheresis can help. H.E.L.P. Apheresis (Heparin-induced Extracorporeal LDL Precipitation) is a specialised form of plasma exchange (plasmapheresis).
Also known as extracorporeal blood cleansing, or blood cleansing that takes place outside the body, this blood plasma treatment removes harmful cells, chemicals and disease-forming proteins from your blood.
Examples include LDL or “bad” cholesterol, lipoproteins, fibrinogen, triglycerides and inflammatory substances such as cytokines. Highly effective as a Long Covid cure and many others, LDL Apheresis is your chance to enjoy restored health and wellness once again.

Patient Testimonials and Real Stories
Edward Nicol, Σκωτία, Lyme, Babesia, Long Covid
After several weeks, Eddie left our island without any results or benefit of the treatments (Combination Therapy with H.E.L.P. Apheresis) and both the team and him were devastated. But then shortly after he arrived home, day by day, he started to get better in small incremental steps until 3 months later he now is almost symptom free! Sometimes recovery takes time, patience and trust as he says. And Eddie is not the only patient with a recovery timeline like that – very often it takes weeks and months so the gradual improvements add up to a bigger result and benefit.
Arthur Ferencei, Ηνωμένο Βασίλειο, Long Covid
Πριν από την παραμονή του στο Κέντρο Αφαιρέσεων περνούσε μια πραγματική κρίση ταυτότητας, καθώς δεν μπορούσε πλέον να σπουδάσει.
The great news – he is back to being a MIT student – Grade A again!
Krisztina Koncsek, Ουγγαρία, Post Vac και Long Covid
3 εβδομάδες μετά τον εμβολιασμό της, η Krisztina έπαθε συγκοπή κατά τη διάρκεια μιας προπόνησης τένις, δεν υπήρχε οξύ καρδιακό τραύμα, αλλά μετά από αρκετές εξετάσεις διαγνώστηκε μυοκαρδιοπάθεια. Αφού φάνηκε να αναρρώνει εν μέρει, εμφάνισε POTS, κόπωση και ήπια γαστρεντερικά συμπτώματα.
Μετά από δύο μεταγενέστερες λοιμώξεις Covid επιδεινώθηκε σε σοβαρή κόπωση και σοβαρό POTS, άρχισαν τα προβλήματα ισταμίνης και η εμφάνιση μουδιάσματος και πονοκεφάλου.
Τον Οκτώβριο του 2023 από τη μια μέρα στην άλλη έμεινε καθηλωμένη στο κρεβάτι, με πολύ έντονη κόπωση, αϋπνία, γαστρεντερικό πόνο, πόνο στο στομάχι, συμπτώματα που μοιάζουν με νευροπάθεια και αίσθημα φλεγμονής. Οι θεράποντες γιατροί της είπαν ότι πρόκειται για ψυχολογική διαταραχή, διότι όλες οι εργαστηριακές εξετάσεις της βγήκαν εντάξει.
When she arrived the last week of May at the Apheresis Center, she had 35 (!) severe symptoms. Today, beginning of July there are almost no symptoms left, with moderate MCAS being the main symptom to work on. During the video she surprised Markus – she is moving to Cyprus in October – being sunlight-tolerant again after treatment will definitely help there!
Marko Zivanovic, Σερβία, Long Covid
Ο Marko μιλάει για την εμπειρία του στην Κύπρο, στην κλινική μας στη Λάρνακα, για το πόσο χρήσιμη ήταν η Dianna από την ταξιδιωτική υποστήριξη με τη μεταφορά και τη διαμονή και για τα πλεονεκτήματα που βρήκε στο να θεραπεύεται στο νησί μας. Προσθέτοντας Υπερθερμία Ολόκληρου Σώματος και Πρωτόκολλα Διατροφής (Senolytica και Αντιιικά) στις θεραπείες του H.E.L.P. Apheresis στοχεύσαμε στη μείωση του κόστους και της διάρκειας (μόνο 10 ημέρες!) της θεραπείας του. Θα πετύχει αυτό το πείραμα; Ο χρόνος θα δείξει όταν μιλήσουμε με τον Marko σε λίγους μήνες από τώρα, ίσως έχουμε ένα προσχέδιο για μελλοντικές μελέτες περίπτωσης. Πετύχαμε κάποια πρώτα αποτελέσματα, αλλά είναι ακόμη πολύ νωρίς για να βγάλουμε ουσιαστικά συμπεράσματα.
Donna Picton, Αυστραλία, Long Covid
Fatigue, Post Excertional Malaise, Brainfog, Tinnitus, MCAS, Anxiety, Persisting EBV to just name a few of the symptoms that brought her to our clinic. On 3rd of November 2023 Donna started her therapy course at our Apheresis Center in Larnaca, Cyprus, on 28th December 2023 she said: ‘I am fully cured, no longer have Long Covid and am back to 100%’. What we called ‘unicorns’ back in 2021 and 2022, we see now more and more often – Combination Therapy with H.E.L.P. Apheresis is fully curative for a substantial group/subset of Long Covid and Post Vac sufferers.

Marko Zivanovic, Σερβία, Long Covid
Anna came to our clinic in August 2023. She was not sure if she would be a patient who would respond to treatment as she had had post-viral MECFS for 11 years and no treatment had worked before. Now, half a year later, she is living a completely different life – she can sit as long as she likes, stand as long as she likes, do as much housework as she likes, no more stairs that cause her to collapse for days.
Και η νέα δύναμη στα πόδια της και το γεγονός ότι δεν είναι πλέον μπλε, την εκπλήσσει ακόμα κάθε μέρα.

“H.E.L.P. Apheresis is the most powerful treatment of the [Long Covid or Post-Vac Syndrome] condition so far, from everything we have… [And] adding combination therapy, we are seeing better results and faster improvements.” — Dr Irina Pavlik Marangos“[The H.E.L.P. Apheresis] machine exists for almost 40 years. We traditionally used them to treat high-risk patients with coronary heart disease who have suffered several myocardial infarctions or being heart transplanted. [The machines] remove excess damaging stuff from the blood and they do it in a harmonised manner so it does no harm to the patients.” — Dr Beate Jaeger

Frequently Asked Questions
Please email us at info@apheresiscenter.eu if you cannot find an answer to your question
Therapeutic Apheresis removes harmful components from your plasma such as fibrinogen, LDL cholesterol, inflammatory cytokines, immune complexes, microclots and, in some cases, autoantibodies. This helps reduce inflammation, improve circulation and lower immune dysregulation.
Some patients report noticeable improvements after just one to two sessions, especially in symptoms like brain fog, breathlessness, circulation and fatigue. For others, it may take four to six sessions to observe significant and sustained benefits.
H.E.L.P. Apheresis specifically targets inflammatory and pro-thrombotic substances without removing all plasma proteins or relying on donor replacement fluids. It filters blood with heparin-induced precipitation, making it more precise, less taxing and more effective for conditions like Long Covid and autoimmune inflammation. Read more on our blog about how different Apheresis types compare.
Yes, patients with blood pressure issues can typically receive treatment, but it is closely monitored. Our medical team adjusts protocols, hydration and infusion rates accordingly to ensure stability before, during and after the session.
We treat adults and occasionally adolescents based on thorough case assessment. There is a minimum weight of 30kg+, but younger patients are reviewed on a case-by-case basis with parental consent and paediatrician collaboration.
Most patients undergo a core protocol of five to eight sessions, typically at two per week. Your exact plan is tailored to your diagnostic profile and response to the treatment.
The duration of a treatment session depends on the therapy. For example, H.E.L.P. Apheresis can last from 2.5 to 3 hours, Inuspheresis or Immunoadsorption can last from 3 to 4 hours and IV Therapy can proceed for 45 minutes up to 1.5 hours. Factors that affect the duration include symptom severity, treatment type and whether combination protocols are used.
The treatment is minimally invasive. It involves an IV cannula (or catheter in some cases), and patients are monitored throughout. Some experience slight chills or tiredness afterward, but serious discomfort is rare.
Yes. It’s part of our Combination Therapy Protocol, which often includes IV nutrients, hyperthermia, immunoabsorption, nutraceuticals and medication support. Treatments are safely sequenced and adapted to your lab results.
As with any blood filtration therapy, there are minor risks such as bruising, fatigue, low blood pressure or temporary electrolyte imbalances. Severe complications are extremely rare due to the closed-loop and heparin-based system of H.E.L.P. Apheresis.
It depends on your country and provider. We assist patients with detailed documentation to support insurance reimbursement requests.
Recovery usually involves gentle pacing, hydration, light nutrition and supportive coaching. Our health coaching and nutrition team provides post-session strategies to stabilise and sustain your improvements.

Ντοκιμαντέρ της τηλεόρασης ARTE 'Long Covid - Θεραπεία στην Κύπρο' για το Κέντρο Αφαιρέσεων μας
Το ντοκιμαντέρ προβλήθηκε τον Ιούνιο του 2024. Μια ομάδα δημοσιογράφων από το ευρωπαϊκό τηλεοπτικό κανάλι ARTE TV συνόδευσε τρεις από τους ασθενείς μας με Long Covid και Post Vac Syndrom και πήρε συνέντευξη από αυτούς και την ομάδα μας στο Κέντρο Αφαιρέσεων. Εδώ μπορείτε να παρακολουθήσετε ένα απόσπασμα από το ντοκιμαντέρ, το οποίο είναι επίσης εύκολο να παρακολουθήσουν ασθενείς με νοητική δυσλειτουργία, εγκεφαλική ομίχλη και συναφείς ημικρανίες. Αγγλικός ήχος από την Dubly.
Από τότε που γυρίστηκε το ντοκιμαντέρ, έχουν γίνει νέα επιστημονικά ευρήματα, μπορείτε να βρείτε τις τελευταίες μελέτες που δημοσιεύτηκαν εδώ.
Ο Markus δημοσίευσε μια ανάρτηση στο blog εδώ, όπου περιγράφει τις εξελίξεις και τις ενημερώσεις μετά την κινηματογράφηση του ντοκιμαντέρ.
ITV News, BBC News, France 2 και WDR TV. Αποσπάσματα από μερικά από τα τελευταία ρεπορτάζ σχετικά με το Κέντρο Αφέρεσης και το H.E.L.P. Apheresis for Post/Long Covid, Post Vac Syndrome and Chronic Illness.
Vejon International Expert Conference – Hidden Drivers of Post Covid Dysfunction
Ο συνιδρυτής μας Markus Klotz ανέβηκε στη σκηνή μιας δυνατής συζήτησης πάνελ που διερεύνησε τις διαρκείς επιπτώσεις του COVID - καταδυόμενος στην επίμονη δυσλειτουργία του ανοσοποιητικού συστήματος, του μικροβιώματος, των μιτοχονδρίων και της πήξης.
For the first time some of the world’s leading scientists, clinicians and researchers were brought together to explore the hidden drivers behind Long COVID and post-vaccine syndromes. Dr. Philip McMillan hosted this event. He, like us, believes we’re facing a complex and evolving medical crisis that demands open dialogue, rigorous science, and most importantly, collaboration. What you’re about to read and see is a powerful synthesis of panel discussions, and a roundtable exchange that digs deep into the mechanisms of spike protein persistence, mitochondrial dysfunction, clotting abnormalities, and the collapse of the microbiome.
