The Herpes Family of Viruses consists of Chicken Pox, Shingles, HHV-6, and Herpes Simplex complex 1 and 2. Herpes virus is a common affliction, affecting 50-80 percent of the population. The P-Treatment often sees patients in the mountains with a reactivation of the virus. The reason, although not 100 percent known, is believed to be due to intensity of the ultraviolet radiation given the Vail altitude. Exercise and travel may also increase the stress response and lead to an outbreak. Given the prevalence of viral reactivation, we have designed a comprehensive treatment plan to manage symptoms so you can enjoy your time in Vail. You may even pre-treat, the key is to come in at the first sign of an outbreak.
