Country music artist LeAnn Rimes underwent a $10,000 Therapeutic Plasma Exchange (TPE) treatment at a Nashville health center to clear her body of “micro-toxins” including mold and microplastics. Rimes documented the procedure on Instagram, describing it as her second round of plasma exchange and noting she had added stem cells to encourage overall repair. She framed the treatment as part of her broader health management following a demanding year of filming and touring: “I demand so much from my body and it’s incredibly important to me to take the best care of it I possibly can.”
TPE, also known as plasmapheresis, removes the liquid portion of blood (plasma) containing proteins, antibodies, toxins, inflammatory agents, and other substances, replacing it with fresh albumin. In her explanation, Rimes acknowledged the privilege of accessing such treatments: “I also want to say this with care I’m very aware that access to treatments like this isn’t universal. I share with sensitivity and humility, not as a prescription, but as information about what’s been working for me.”
The wellness treatment follows an incident during a concert when Rimes’ dental bridge fell out mid-performance while she was singing “One Way Ticket.” She described the experience as “the most epic experience ever” and “hopefully a last” occurrence. In a follow-up video, she encouraged others not to feel embarrassed by such moments: “In case anybody has an issue on stage or ever and feels embarrassed by it, just watch this video again and it’ll remind you that the show can go on even in the midst of sheer utter embarrassment.” Rimes noted she has had multiple dental surgeries throughout her career.
