At the Osteopathic Center, our constant pursuit is to seek and embrace innovative, evidence-based, and holistic treatments that enrich the wellness journey of our patients. We are elated to highlight one of our powerful treatments offered in our clinics- Ozone therapy.
Before we delve into specific treatments, it’s crucial to understand what Ozone therapy entails. This innovative medical treatment involves the administration of a small amount of ozone gas into the body. Ozone, a potent form of oxygen, is known for its significant therapeutic properties.
Ozone therapy operates on the principle of ozonation – the process in which ozone gas (O3) is introduced. This process brings along a multitude of health benefits. By combating pathogens such as bacteria, fungi, and viruses, ozonation helps in managing various infectious conditions. Additionally, it enhances tissue oxygenation – a vital process for maintaining optimal cellular functions and overall body health. The heightened oxygen availability at the cellular level promotes healing and helps rejuvenate the body.
Apart from the anti-infective properties, ozone also modulates the immune system, curbing overly aggressive immune responses in autoimmune diseases while boosting it in cases of immune deficiencies. Moreover, it encourages improved circulation, supporting better nutrient and oxygen delivery to all parts of the body.
Now let’s glance at the different types of ozone therapies and their key features:
Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation (EBOO): This method, similar to dialysis, increases the oxygen content in your blood and detoxifies it outside the body, offering potential benefits such as improved circulation and immune stimulation.
Major and Minor Autohemotherapy: Similar to EBOO, Major and Minor Autohemotherapy shows promise for a variety of conditions, with the difference lying mainly in the volume of blood treated per session.
Ozone Insufflation: This includes various methods of introducing medical-grade ozone into the body:
Nasal and Ear Insufflation: Effective against acute and chronic ear and sinus infections.
Rectal Ozone: Rapidly absorbs ozone into your body, promoting overall health.
Vaginal Ozone: Helps combat a range of infections and unexplained vaginal or pelvic pain.
Ozone Limb Bagging: Involves the application of an ozone-filled bag over the affected area, useful for treating various topical infections and promoting wound healing.
Prolozone Therapy: A non-invasive treatment harnessing ozone gas to boost the body’s natural healing mechanisms, especially useful for various musculoskeletal conditions and gum diseases.
At the Osteopathic Center, we prioritize your health and wellbeing. We believe in the potential of ozone therapies to enhance health and wellness. As with any therapy, always consult with a healthcare provider to discuss if these therapies are suitable for your individual case. Here’s to a healthier you!
