1. MEDICAL OZONE, BIO-OXIDATIVE & UV THERAPY
Posted on August 8, 2011 by admin
What is Ozone?
Ozone is a chemical compound consisting of three oxygen atoms O3 (i.e. triatomic oxygen), a highly energetic form
of normal (diatomic) atmospheric oxygen (O2). Due to it being an extremely powerful oxidizing agent and a highly
effective disinfectant, it is used throughout the world to destroy germs in water treatment installations supplying
drinking water. Medical ozone is prepared from pure medical oxygen via silent electrical discharge for use as an
ozone/oxygen mixture at an exact concentration and dosage.
History behind Medical Ozone Therapy
The first use of ozone intravenously was done in the 1940s and its development is credited to Dr. H. Wolff. It is the
most common ozone medical treatment today and is used by thousands of physicians worldwide in countries like
Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, France, England, Canada, Russia, India, Eastern Europe, Cuba and Mexico.
How does Medical Ozone Therapy work?
Medical ozone has highly pronounced bactericidal, fungicidal and virostatic properties, and is thus widely used in
disinfecting wounds, as well as, in bacterial and viral diseases. Ozone’s ability to stimulate circulation is beneficial in
the treatment of various circulatory disorders and makes it valuable in revitalizing organic functions. Ozone is a potent
regulator of the immune system. This unique property makes the therapy effective in both over and under active
immune systems. Ozone also activates the body’s own antioxidant systems and free radical scavengers by
stimulating glutathione and superoxide dismutase and is thus useful in diseases that involve chronic inflammation and
mitochondrial dysfunction.
