ozone therapy

What is ozone?

Ozone is a gas consisting of 3 oxygen molecules (O3) which can dissolve in the bloodstream for therapeutic and preventive effects. It improves blood circulation and oxygen delivery to damaged tissues, decreases age-related cellular stress, inhibits the growth of bacteria and fungi, and activates the immune system. Ozone therapy has been used in patients with diverse conditions including coronary artery disease, multiple sclerosis, hepatitis, ulcers, and arthritis.

EBOO (extracorporeal blood oxygenation and ozonation) is an advanced form of ozone therapy that externally cleans the blood, boosting energy and well-being while reducing the body’s toxic burden. It requires drawing blood from one arm, filtering and oxygenating it, and returning it to the other arm. People may feel immediate improvements in breathing, clarity, and overall well-being after the treatment.

How does it work?

Ozone can be delivered to the body through a vein, nasal passages, rectum, vagina or skin. Once inside the body, ozone reacts with water to form hydrogen peroxide which acts as a moderate oxidative stressor. This stress activates antioxidant enzymes including superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, catalase, and heme oxygenase-1, all of which help scavenge unstable free radicals. These markers can be measured in the blood to track the effectiveness of treatment.
Ozone also activates heat shock proteins, offering protection against inflammation, cancer, and neurodegeneration. The heat shock response breaks down iron, nitric oxide, and carbon monoxide, which can be toxic at high levels.

By increasing the flow of oxygen across cell membranes, ozone makes mitochondrial respiration more efficient, increasing the rate of glycolysis and ATP production—the fuel your body uses for energy.
