Ozone therapy is an alternative medical treatment that involves administering ozone gas to various
parts of the body. Ozone (O3) is a molecule composed of three oxygen atoms, whereas the oxygen we breathe (O2) contains only two oxygen atoms.
The theory behind ozone therapy is that ozone, when introduced into the body, can stimulate the immune system, 
improve circulation, and have antimicrobial properties. Proponents claim that it can be used to treat a wide range of conditions, including infections, cancer, autoimmune diseases, and chronic pain.
There are several methods of administering ozone therapy, including:
- Ozone autohemotherapy: This involves withdrawing blood from the patient, mixing it with ozone, and then reinfusing it into the bloodstream.
- Ozone insufflations: Ozone gas is introduced into body cavities, such as the rectum, vagina, or ears.
- Ozone saunas: Patients sit in a sauna where ozone is introduced into the steam.
- Ozone injections: Ozone gas is injected directly into joints, muscles, or tissues.
Ozone treatment - pure revitalization
Ozone-oxygen treatment is one of the classic methods of complementary medicine and is used successfully, especially for chronic diseases. Ozone, consisting of three oxygen atoms, is extremely unstable and breaks down into active elements when it comes into contact with the tissue. On the one hand, these have an antibacterial and antiviral effect, and on the other hand, they promote blood circulation and strengthen the immune system.
Ozone as a medication
Medical ozone is a mixture of ozone and oxygen in a clearly defined and controlled concentration. The patient's own blood (approx. 100 ml), obtained through a venous access, is enriched with ozone and administered directly back into the circulation. The ozone dose used is defined by the attending physician depending on the clinical picture and tolerability. This therapy is carried out from several times a week to once a month, depending on the severity and type of disease.
In the human body, the unstable ozone immediately breaks down into active oxygen molecules, which have the following positive effects:
- antimicrobial effect against bacteria, viruses and fungi
- circulation-promoting and revitalizing effect
- activation of the body's own immune system (defense forces)
