What is Ozone- Oxygen- Therapy?
Ozone therapy is based on the use of medical ozone, a highly reactive form of oxygen, to heal and revitalize the body. Unlike the normal oxygen (O2) we breathe, ozone consists of three oxygen atoms (O3). This additional oxygen atom makes ozone an extremely reactive molecule, capable of producing an impressive array of therapeutic effects on the human body.
​
Medical ozone interacts at the cellular level with various tissues and organs in the body by improving metabolism, promoting blood circulation, and activating antioxidant processes. This can support the regeneration of damaged tissue, reduce inflammation, and strengthen the immune system.
How does Ozone-Oxygen- Therapy work?
Ozone therapy works on various levels:
​
-
Stimulation of the Immune System: Ozone can stimulate the production of immunomodulators, enhancing the activity of immune cells such as macrophages and T-lymphocytes. This can strengthen the body's defense against infections.
-
Improvement of Blood Circulation: Ozone has the ability to improve blood circulation by stimulating the release of nitric oxide (NO). This can increase blood flow in the tissues, leading to better supply of oxygen and nutrients.
-
Detoxification and Inflammation- modulating: Ozone acts as a strong oxidizing agent that can neutralize harmful toxins and free radicals in the body. Additionally, it can inhibit the release of inflammatory mediators, thereby reducing inflammation in the body.
-
Stimulation of Mitochondrial Function: Ozone can stimulate the activity of mitochondria, the powerhouses of the cell, by increasing enzyme activity and improving energy metabolism. This can boost cellular energy and contribute to the regeneration of damaged tissues.
