Why Choose Robert Rowen, MD and Terri Su, MD Clinic?

Many patients who come to Robert Rowen, MD and Terri Su, MD Clinic have already tried conventional medical treatments that rely on pharmaceuticals to suppress their symptoms.

The Robert Rowen, MD and Terri Su, MD Way strives to remove underlying causes of poor health.  The most common are:  energy-blocking “interference fields”,  toxins in the body, compromised metabolism, stress, unbalanced emotions, and inflammatory foods.  Robert Rowen, MD and Terri Su, MD clinic doctors create a personalized return-to-health treatment plan that addresses both symptoms and underlying factors. The clinic’s approach is especially important for those who are experiencing significant health issues: chronic pain, chronic fatigue, arthritis, diabetes, Lyme disease, autoimmune diseases and other chronic conditions.

The Robert Rowen, MD and Terri Su, MD approach requires a more extensive pre-diagnosis/treatment History than most patients have ever experienced. Many patients are surprised by the in-depth look at their medical history – and wonder why previous providers have never done so.

In treating a patient, Robert Rowen, MD and Terri Su, MD Clinic seldom uses pharmaceutical medications. Instead, the doctors and clinical staff use their extensive experience in highly-effective and innovative non- pharmaceutical therapies.

Robert Rowen, MD and Terri Su, MD Clinic Treatments

Ozone is a molecule composed of 3 atoms of oxygen (O3).  It can significantly improve biochemical pathways and metabolism in the body.  Our immune cells naturally produce ozone in our bodies.  Ozone is known to break up bacterial cells, disrupt virus reproduction, and destroy toxins. Ozone increases oxygenation and improves blood flow throughout the entire body.

The strongest method is usually to give ozone blood treatments.  The most effective treatment we’ve found for pain is injecting ozone into joints/painful areas.  See Prolozone description.  We also teach our patients how to give ozone treatments at home via rectal/vaginal/ear/nasal/topical routes, drinking ozonated water and applying ozonated oil.

Ultraviolet blood irradiation is a sister oxidation therapy and has been used in the U.S. for more than 80 years as a treatment for bacterial and viral infections, and other diseases.  See Dr. Rowen’s published article on this website.

Doctors Rowen and Su and clinical staff are highly skilled and experienced in giving ozone, oxidation and ultraviolet blood irradiation therapies to treat a range of conditions that have defied conventional treatment. The best known machines and purest supplies are used. The clinical staff teaches doctors from around the world on oxidation therapies.

  • Blood is taken from one arm, passes by a dialysis membrane while exposed to ozone at the same time, and returned to the other arm.

Robert Rowen, MD and Terri Su, MD Clinic is a pioneer in the use of Ozone “Dialysis” , which they refer to as the ‘gold standard’ of ozone therapy.

  • Prolozone Therapy is probably the most effective treatment we’ve found for painful areas or joints.  A local anesthetic may be injected first, and then the ozone. The oxygen in the ozone creates the energy needed for cells to regenerate and repair and improves circulation. Ozone has been found to significantly attenuate inflammation and toxic molecules associated with arthritis and tissue damage.  Pain relief often can be immediate and often is long-lasting, even when the local anesthetic wears off.
  • Rowen is a recognized leader in the use of Prolozone Therapy, and teaches this procedure to doctors worldwide

  • Neural therapy is a discipline of healing that involves the injection of local anesthetics into “disturbances” in the body. These disturbances create “interference fields” that upset the autonomic nervous system’s ability to regulate the body, and can lead to circulatory abnormalities and pain, even at distant sites in the body. For example, a problem in a tooth can cause degeneration and pain as far away as your knee or foot. It can also incite an “autoimmune” condition. An analogy is that injured nerves “weep” and create a current of pain or injury. The local anesthetic seals the weeping site and can instantly relieve the disturbance, even years afterward.
  • Causes of disturbances: Trauma, surgery, surgical scars, root canals, dental cavitations (subclinical/occult bone infection), tonsil disturbances. These interference fields might not cause any local symptoms, and you may be unaware that there is a local problem. You may not connect a local disturbance as the cause of a symptom in a different part of your body or systemic condition.
  • Conditions that might be related to interference fields causing imbalance in your autonomic nervous system include: reflex sympathetic dystrophy, bronchospasm, digestion issues, chronic pain, migraines, sciatica, palpitations, sexual and urinary dysfunction, and more. Interference field problems can persist indefinitely, until treated.
  • Detecting an interference field: We use applied kinesiology – muscle strength testing. We find that drawing your body’s attention to a disturbance causes a weakening in an indicator muscle. Simply touching a target scar, or a problem tooth may weaken the muscle suggesting the presence of the interference field.
  • Treatment: A good choice for a local anesthetic is preservative-free procaine, as it is a molecular combination of two natural substances. Injecting procaine into the interference field can instantly relieve distant pain and medical problems, which generally is confirmatory to the cause of the problem. In the case of an occult dental infection, relief is generally temporary, and definitive dental care will be needed. However, the source of your problem has been found, which certainly is not a deficiency of pain drugs.
  • Duration of relief: Relief sometimes is permanent. Not infrequently, repeated treatments are necessary until the condition is resolved. There is usually very little discomfort from the neural therapy procedure. A dental interference field will require biological dental work.
  • Safety of Neural Therapy: The treatment is remarkably safe. While anyone can be allergic to anything, procaine can cause dizziness even at normal doses. Any needle injection, even in a hospital, can cause lightheadedness and fainting, called a vagal reaction.
  • Doctor Rowen is a highly skilled in using kinesiology to detect interference fields, and in diagnosing their impact on local, distant and systemic body health.
  • A number of Robert Rowen, MD and Terri Su, MD Clinic patients have benefited from neural therapy – see their testimonials on the Clinic’s YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwo2Q2bNqTrlqNhaLG639lkuZPe8oiN2D

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) in an innovative, non-surgical treatment for a wide variety of medical challenges. Blood is withdrawn, then spun down and the platelet rich portion of the blood is extracted. This can be injected into joints and tissues, releasing a large amount of growth and healing factors. It also can be used for erectile dysfunction, female incontinence, and sexual dysfunction. Local anesthetic is used to nearly eliminate injection pain.  Dr. Rowen has used PRP for several years in conjunction with ozone therapy.

  • Biocean IV Therapy is a fast and efficient treatment to deliver nutrients to the body. It gets its name from its source: seawater. Everyone knows that the ocean is salty, but seawater sourced from a specific depth and in the middle of a plankton bloom is an unusually rich source for bio-active minerals, amino acids, fatty acids, nucleic acids and polysaccharides. This seawater, called Quinton water, is processed by a cold sterilization method developed by Dr. Quinton and can be administered orally or intravenously. The high quality brand we use is Biocean.
  • Nutrients given intravenously can make their health-giving properties immediately available to a patient’s metabolism. Biocean IV therapy may provide the raw materials needed to boost energy and metabolism, and heal from diseases and inflamed, painful areas.  Biocean IV therapy may balance a patient’s immune system, which can lessen the severity and duration of infections. This therapy may be useful to support cancer patients with their challenges.
  • Robert Rowen, MD and Terri Su, MD Clinic uses Biocean IV therapy to address mineral deficiencies and to counteract acidity that short-circuits enzyme functions. If a patient’s “biological terrain” is weak, he or she may be subject to degenerative diseases. The Clinic may supplement this Biocean IV with additional vitamins and minerals based on the patient’s specific needs.
  • Chelation Therapy (CT) uses special drugs that bind to metals in your body. The metals can include lead, mercury, cadmium and arsenic. The chelating drugs are given intravenously, or as an oral pill, or rectal suppository. Once the drug attaches to metals in your body, you dispose of them in your urine, which can be tested in a chelated “challenge” test. 
  • One such drug, Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) is a very safe molecule that chelates or “grabs” metal ions. Fortuitously, it prefers to grab heavier and more toxic metals like lead and cadmium over needed minerals like magnesium and potassium. Hence, it selectively removes these toxins from your body and is well accepted, even in conventional medicine, for this role
  • Chelation physicians have for years observed improvements from chelation therapy in patients with atherosclerosis, high blood pressure and other vascular diseases. Extremely low levels of lead and other toxic metals, levels considered “safe” two generations ago, impair the inner lining of arteries.  Lead damages crucial enzymes in these endothelial cells and inhibits a key enzyme that makes the vasodilator nitric oxide (NO).  Thus heavy metals can lead to high blood pressure and decreased blood flow.  
  • Properly administered by a trained professional, Intravenous CT is safe. The dose of EDTA has to be adjusted for kidney function. Even for those with renal impairment, careful administration of CT can help their kidneys perform better by removing toxic metals from the organ.
  • While removing heavy metals from a patient’s body is an important step toward better heart and general health, optimal results come from combining chelation therapy with healthy lifestyle changes (improved diet, exercise, smoking cessation, etc), supplements and therapies like ozone treatments.
  • Rowen and Su have a combined 50 years of experience with CT. During these years only a few patients have needed to go on to surgical intervention for cardiovascular challenges.

Further reading: Trial to Assess Chelation Therapy (TACT) was a nationwide assessment of chelation benefits done by chelating doctors. Among them was lead author Gervasio Lamas, MD, who reported significant improvements with patients suffering from diabetic vascular disease: Here is a news story recap: https://www.statnews.com/2016/12/27/chelation-therapy-gervasio-lamas/

The Hocatt sauna combines several simultaneous modes of treatments for efficient synergistic results. These include:

  • Carbon dioxide gas which creates carbonic acid on contact with your skin. Carbonic acid can help balance your autonomic nervous system (parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems), and is a vasodilator that can decrease high blood pressure and improve circulation.
  • Ozone
  • Microcurrent electrical frequencies.
  • Light/photonic therapy.
  • PEMF (pulsating electromagnetic fields), which act like “cellular exercise”
  • Far infra-red therapy

We believe this device to be a quantum leap in ozone sauna therapy, and our patients love it.

Lasers and LED (Light Emitting Diode) Therapy with amber, red, and infra-red frequencies may jump-start circulation and cellular repair, and decrease pain.

Micro-Vibrational Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses a combination of vibration, magnetism, light, sound and color therapies that has been found useful to relieve pain and may help heal a symptomatic area. The treatment is based on a hand-held device developed by Robert Milne, MD

Pulsating ElectroMagnetic Fields (PEMF) therapy may stimulate “cellular massage” and may aid cellular uptake of oxygen and nutrients, and may aid in removal of cellular toxins/debris.

We aim to focus on therapies that not only treat symptoms of a disease or chronic medical condition, but also boost your body’s ability to self-heal and regain your health. Diet counseling is one of those therapies. Dr. Rowen has written and lectured on the benefits of “The Living Foods Diet” and a “Low-Lectin Diet.”

We recommend not eating food that was cooked with oil, since liquid oils are sensitive to heat and light. You can add organic extra virgin olive oil onto your food after it is cooked. Or use organic butter/ghee/coconut oil to cook with since saturated fats are relatively stable to heat and light. Skip margarine or hydrogenated fats.  

Don’t eat farmed fish/seafood.  Wild caught seafood or organic pasture raised-finished/grass fed meat/poultry/eggs are cleaner than farmed seafood or only cage-free poultry. Best to keep animal protein at 3x/week or less.

Eat mostly raw vegetables/low glycemic fruits as tolerated.  Eat food that is not or minimally refined and/or processed.

  • Plants and botanicals have been the basis for medical treatments through much of human history. They have a long and proven history in Chinese medicine. Herbs and nutritional supplements can relieve the symptoms of illness and injury and boost the body’s metabolism and energy. Herbal supplements can be dried, powered, or liquified. They can be ingested as pills, tinctures, and teas or applied as lotions or gels. Because quality and dosages can vary by manufacturer, patients should consult a knowledgeable herbalist or doctor.

Drs. Rowen and Su are trained in nutrition and make it a primary part of every patient’s recovery and health maintenance program.

Many patients can benefit from bio-identical hormone replacement therapy if their own bodies are failing to produce enough for optimum wellness. Hormone levels can be determined through lab testing if needed. The medical professional then can “supplement” deficient hormones with administration of exogenous hormones identical to what is made by your body.  

Detoxification is one of the three pillars of obtaining and retaining health. We combine a number of proven modalities for our patients:

  • Sauna for toxic chemicals and metals.
  • Chelation therapy for toxic metals.
  • IV or other ozone therapy for general detoxification.
  • Physical Health and Balanced Emotions may be aided by nebulizing pure essential oils in a diffuser to directly affect the limbic system in the brain. Essential oils may also aid health by rubbing onto the skin or ingesting them.
  • Essential oils vary significantly in quality. Those that are purer and have few fillers or other elements and those derived from plants grown in ideal conditions have greater health benefits. The finest essential oils are sourced by skilled and experienced artisans who cultivate and process their plants for optimal purity and potency.

Homeopathy is based on the law of similars “like cures like” to stimulate the body’s own healing and excretion processes. We have access to “complex” and German homeopathic remedies, which we add to, or combine with other therapies to enhance healing processes.
