Ozone Therapy


Ozone Therapy


Application of ozone can influence pathological process and can adjust the broken balance inside an organism. It can improve the condition of the organism and stimulate its protective forces by reinforcing the immune system.

Ozone Therapy is used around Europe for more than 50 years. Ozone allows the treatment of many diseases which were previously not considered curable or difficult to be treated and acts as an excellent prophylactic measure for the prevention of many diseases.

Ozone can help and/or improve significantly the condition of patients with:
  • Chronic Diseases (Diabetes - diabetic foot, atherosclerosis, trauma, gangrene etc.)
  • Immune System Diseases such as AIDS
  • Several Infections
  • Cancer
  • Auto-immune Diseases
  • Blood Circulation Problems
Ozone therapy has a wide range of influence such as bactericidal, antiviral and antimycotic

Ozone can regulate and stimulate the immune system; it has antihypoxic effect and can limit the harmful effects of chemical preparations to the organism by its detoxifying effect. It practically has no side effects and it is well accepted by the organism.

By the use of medical ozone, lethality as well as the disability degree decreases. By ozone therapy, the amount of medications needed for certain diseases is reduced. This is a very important function that helps mainly people with chronic diseases, for example, it can decrease the corticosteroide or insulin amount needed by patients thus limiting adverse effects caused by these medications and tolerance. It is used for the treatment of all kinds of infections, bronchial asthma and allergies.

In addition, ozone helps the circulatory system to overcome diseases like atherosclerosis, diabetes, trauma, gangrene and sexual impotency. Many doctors in Europe, Mexico and other countries have noticed in their medical practice that ozone shrinks the tumors, thus it is used to improve the condition of cancer patients. It has also been proved that it helps patients with AIDS because it increases the oxygen supply towards the cells, thus plays a big role in the destruction of bacteria and viruses, especially in the blood. Ozone helps people of old age and makes sure it increases the quality of life as well as their life span. It makes people feel younger and more active.

How does Ozone Therapy Work?

  • Inactivation of bacteria, viruses, fungi, yeast and protozoa:

Ozone disrupts the integrity of the bacterial cell envelope through oxidation of the phospholipides and lipoproteins. In fungi, ozone inhibits cell growth at certain stages. With viruses, the ozone damages the viral capsid and disrupts the reproductive cycle by disrupting the virus-to-cell contact with peroxidation. The weak enzyme coatings on cells which make them vulnerable to invasion by viruses make them susceptible to oxidation and elimination from the body, which then replaces them with healthy cells.

  • Enhancement of circulation:

In circulatory disease, a clumping of red blood cells hinders blood flow through the small capillaries and decreases oxygen absorption due to reduced surface area. Ozone reduces or eliminates clumping and red cell flexibility is restored, along with oxygen carrying ability. Oxygenation of the tissues increases as the arterial partial pressure increases and viscosity decreases. Ozone also oxidizes the plaque in arteries, allowing the removal of the breakdown products, unclogging the blood vessels.

  • Stimulation of oxygen metabolism:

Ozone causes an increase in the red blood cell glycolysis rate. This leads to the stimulation of 2,3-diphosphoglycerate (2,3-DPG) which leads to an increase in the amount of oxygen released to the tissues. There is a stimulation of the production of the enzymes which act as free radical scavengers and cell wall protectors: glutathione peroxidase, catalase, and superoxide dismutase. Ozone activates the Krebs cycle by enhancing oxidative carboxylation of pyruvate, stimulating production of ATP. Ozone also causes a significant reduction in NADH and helps to oxidize cytochrome C. Prostacyclin, a vasodilator, is also induced by ozone.

  • Formation of peroxides:

Ozone reacts with the unsaturated fatty acids of the lipid layer in cellular membranes, forming hydro peroxides. There is a synergistic effect with cellular- formed H2O2. Lipid peroxidation products include alkoxyl and peroxyl radicals, singlet oxygen, ozonides, carbonides, carbonyls, alkanes and alkenes.

  • Dissolution of malignant tumours:

Ozone inhibits tumour metabolism. In addition, ozone oxidizes the outer lipid layer of malignant cells and destroys them through cell lysis (break-down). Phagocytes produce H2O2. and hydroxyl to kill bacteria and viruses. The generation of hydroxyl by killer cells is critical to their cytotoxic capability. Ozone stimulates conversion of L- arginine to citrulline, nitrite and nitrate by phagocytes, acting on tumours.
