ozone therapy treatment

Vitality Unleashed: The Functional Medicine Podcast

Ozone therapy is a complementary medical treatment that involves administering ozone gas (O3) - a molecule consisting of three oxygen atoms - into the body through various methods. This alternative therapy has been practiced for over a century, with its first medical applications dating back to World War I for wound treatment.
The treatment can be administered in several ways, including:
IV Ozonated saline
Major autohemotherapy (MAH): blood is drawn, mixed with ozone, and reinfused
Minor autohemotherapy: similar to MAH but using smaller amounts of blood
Rectal Insufflation: directing ozone gas into body cavities
Ozonated water or oil: topical application
Direct injection: for joint and tissue treatment
Data shows ozone therapy may provide various therapeutic effects by:
Stimulating the immune system
Increasing oxygen delivery to tissues
Supporting cellular metabolism
Activating antioxidant systems
Reducing inflammation
Fighting bacterial and viral infections
Some reported applications include:
Wound healing
Circulatory disorders
Immune system support
Chronic infections
Joint and muscle problems
Dental infections
However, it's important to note that ozone therapy should only be performed by qualified healthcare practitioners due to potential risks if improperly administered. The FDA has not approved ozone generators for medical purposes, and there are ongoing discussions in the medical community about its efficacy and safety. The treatment requires careful monitoring of ozone concentrations, as excessive amounts can be harmful. Patients considering ozone therapy should consult with their doctors and thoroughly discuss potential benefits and risks.
