Therapy begins with a consultation and pre-therapy assessment to review your vitals, medications, and hydration status. During the session, blood is drawn, filtered, and a portion of plasma is replaced with albumin protein to help replenish the plasma with essential nutrients. The refreshed blood is then returned to your body. After treatment, rest and hydrate for 24 hours and avoid strenuous activity.

Therapeutic Plasma Exchange (TPE) is a treatment that replaces the plasma in your blood to help remove harmful substances, such as toxins, metabolic waste, and inflammatory proteins.
During Therapeutic Plasma Exchange (TPE), your blood is circulated through a high-precision filtration device that replaces a portion of plasma (the clear liquid portion of your blood) with a protein called albumin to restore balance and support your body’s functions. Albumin is a protein in your blood that helps maintain fluid balance and transports important substances.
Yes, Therapeutic Plasma Exchange (TPE) is a well-established medical therapy, and is safe when performed under licensed medical care with FDA-cleared equipment.
Most patients experience little to no pain during Therapeutic Plasma Exchange treatment. You may feel discomfort from the needle insertion or slight coldness from the replacement fluids. A nurse will monitor you closely to ensure comfort.
While TPE and EBO2 are blood-based therapies, they serve different purposes. TPE focuses on removal of toxins and waste to support immune, energy, and cognitive health. EBO2 focuses on enhanced oxygen delivery to reduce inflammation.
The number of Therapeutic Plasma Exchange (TPE) sessions needed depends on your health goals and condition. Some individuals may need 1-6 sessions with quarterly maintenance sessions afterwards. Your provider will recommend a treatment plan tailored to your needs.
