The basic function of ozone is to protect humans from the dangerous effects of UV radiation. It occurs naturally on Earth, in concentrations that are perfectly compatible with life.
Ozone therapy involves of the use of ozone (O3), a potent form of oxygen, as a disinfectant agent that’s introduced into affected areas of the body. Medical ozone is made by passing medical-grade oxygen through the ozone discharge, resulting in a gas mixture of 1 percent to 5 percent ozone and 95 percent to 99 percent oxygen.
​
Medical ozone is used to reduce the harmful effects of bacteria, viruses, fungi, yeast and protozoa. It’s used to disinfect and treat diseases that are caused by these invaders. It works by disrupting bacterial and fungal cell growth and virus-to-cell contact through oxidation.
​
Cells that are vulnerable to invasion by foreign pathogens, like viruses, are also susceptible to oxidation, which is exactly how ozone works to disrupt their growth, eliminate them and allow for the replacement of healthy cells.
The color gas is used to improve oxygen intake and boost the immune system response. Ozone therapy works to increase the endogenous production of antioxidants, which allows it to increase oxidation and support immune function. Research indicates that by increasing antioxidant production. ozone supports wound healing and fights infections. healing effects on interstitial cystitis, chronic hepatitis, herpes infections, dental infections, diabetes, and macular degeneration.
​
Ozone therapy has been proving to dramatically reduce or even eliminate many cases of chronic pain through its action on pain receptors. It improves the cellular utilization of oxygen that reduces ischemia in cardiovascular diseases, and in many of the infirmities of aging. Ozone therapy causes the release of growth factors that stimulate damaged joints and degenerative discs to regenerate. Ozone therapy also dramatically reduces or even eliminates many cases of chronic pain through its action on pain receptors.
