MEDICAL OZONE THERAPY

The first thing anyone with chronic illness should do is optimize their oxygen utilization.

What is Ozone Therapy?

Medical ozone therapy is an alternative treatment offered at Revive Health Infusions. The primary goal of Ozone therapy is

1. Increasing Oxygen Delivery To The Cells
2. Increasing Oxygen Utilization
3. Stimulating Cytokine Function
4. Increasing Nitric Oxide Production
5. Increasing Heme Oxygenase-I
6. Stimulating Detoxification
7. Stimulating Antioxidant Enzymes
8. Combat Microbes (Bacteria, Viruses, Fungi).

Because of ozone’s natural presence in our stratosphere, it combines with exhaust hydrocarbons, and thus is a part of the pollution equation. This creates a perception that O3 is always toxic. Whereas, evidence indicates that when used in its pure form, and according to guidelines, ozone can be an effective therapeutic agent.

What is The Difference Between Environmental Ozone & Medical Ozone?

Ground-level ozone in our environment is formed when Hydrocarbons from cars and factory plants interact with nitrogen and oxygen in the presence of sunlight and heat to form Nitrous-ozone and nitrates, a toxic mixture known as smog.

Because of the presence in our stratosphere and hence combining with the hydrocarbons as a component of poll is a perception that O3 is always toxic, whereas evidence indicates that when used it’s its pure form according to guidelines, O3 can be an effective therapeutic agent . Furthermore, Medical ozone does not use ambient air, but rather medical grade oxygen, and does not contain Nitrogen. Ultimately, the molecular combination that is infused is a mixture of O2 and O3 that never reaches lung tissue or inhaled.

Why Is Ozone Therapy Important?

Aging and chronic diseases are a result of poor oxygen utilization. This functional hypoxia causes mitochondrial decay and ultimately mitochondrial DNA mutations which leads to shorter lifespan. The first thing anyone with a chronic illness should do is optimize their oxygen utilization. This essentially helps to improve the mitochondrial function, as well as optimizing our antioxidative buffer. Lifestyle changes, effective hydration, sleep, nutrition, breathing patterns, and exercise are also very important. Medical Ozone therapy simply acts as a jump start and reaches a greater amount of mitochondria in a shorter span, thus improving symptoms and reversing the aging process.

Ideal Ozone Therapy Candidates:

Ozone Therapy may provide many powerful anti-aging benefits with a low risk of serious side effects. A private consultation with our licensed practitioner will determine if Ozone is an appropriate therapy for you.

Cases that may benefit from Ozone Therapy are:

· Chronic infections: viruses, bacteria, and yeast, and Lyme disease

· Poor oxygenation and blood circulation

· Sleep apnea

· History of ischemia, venous insufficiency

· Cancer

· Low immunity and frequent infections

· Poor wound healing

· Chronic Fatigue

· Chronic Pain

· Chronic Diseases

The Ozone Therapy Process

Our Ozone Therapy Technique

We use a closed system, ensuring that ozone gas never comes into contact with the clinic environment, adhering to HSE guidelines. High Dose Ozone Therapy (Major Auto Hemotherapy) is conducted intravenously, similar to the experience of giving blood. Typically ozone therapy is performed by drawing up 250ml of blood from the vein into a surgical-grade bottle and mixed with ozone and medical-grade oxygen under hyperbaric pressure. After mixing, the blood is reintroduced into your bloodstream, completing one pass. This method can be repeated up to ten times in a single treatment, typically taking about an hour or less, depending on the number of passes performed.

The dose and concentration of medical ozone is controlled depending on the desired results.

• Low doses of ozone are antioxidative and beneficial for anti-aging and cellular regeneration
• Medium doses are beneficial for improved circulation and endothelial function
• Higher doses are Oxidative, creating a hostile environment for pathogens and cancer cells.

Medical Ozone does not reach lung tissue and is never inhaled.

Single Therapy

Our Single Therapy option is an excellent way to introduce your body to the benefits of ozone. It’s a one-time treatment that can help to rejuvenate your appearance, boost your immune system, and improve your overall wellness.

10 Pass Ozone Therapy

For those seeking a more intensive treatment, our 10 Pass Ozone Therapy package provides a series of ten treatments, allowing the restorative properties of ozone to work in depth. 10 pass ozone therapy is a state of the art alternative treatment that provides an oxidative effect within the bloodstream.

Scientific Research

Ozone is 3 molecules of oxygen that is generated via the process of passing medical grade oxygen (O2) through an ozone generator to add the extra atom. The third oxygen atom in O3 is very unstable as it is not balanced by an equal weight of electrons, like the other two are, and therefore it searches for other unstable electrons to bind to. This is how ozone becomes a great Free Radical scavenger. It will bind to the free radicals created in our body through toxins, pollution, highly processed diet and the byproducts of regular metabolic processes.

Ozone therapy stimulates a small, mild, acute oxidative stress on the body, very similar to fasting and exercise. This triggers the production & release of the body’s own antioxidants. It also stimulates the NRF2 pathway, which results in lower inflammation and increased cellular healing. There are over 2,000 published medical studies on the use of ozone for a variety of uses. Clinically, medical grade ozone therapy has been used safely for chronic fatigue, circulatory disorders, macular degeneration, wound healing, and immune/autoimmune disorders. Ozone therapy is extremely effective in fighting acute infections like colds, flu, and upper respiratory infections as well as chronic conditions such as Hepatitis, Epstein-Barr virus, Herpes viruses, and Lyme disease. Also, it is a great support for disease prevention and can aid in increasing athletic performance as well as decreasing post-athletic recovery time. Below are some of the mechanism’s of action that make Ozone so beneficial.

Immune: Ozone is a strong regulator of the immune system. O3 reacts with polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and water to produce H2O2 , reactive oxidative species (ROS) and Lipid Ozonation products (LOP). H2O2 readily diffuses into immune cells has been shown to act as a regulatory step in signal transduction for NFκB pathway, which regulates multiple aspects of innate and adaptive immune functions and other inflammatory response. (1)

Pain: Ozone upregulates Stem cell production. Research being conducted in Europe on hyperbaric ozone therapy reveal that 8 passes of hyperbaric MAH result in systemic stimulation of stem cells throughout your body. Stem cells are the most important aspects of the regenerative capacity of your health and longevity. The main benefit of stem cells is a massive reduction in Inflammation which is a major cause of pain.

Anti-Aging: Your risk for premature aging and degenerative disease is determined by two factors: 1) mitochondrial genetics and 2) the rate of mitochondrial decay. Although Mitochondrial genetics is static, your rate of mitochondrial decay is modifiable. Medical Ozone therapy offers exciting possibilities for enhancing overall well-being and extending our years with vitality by upregulates NAD production, balancing the NAD: NADH ratio, and improving oxygen utilization, thereby delaying mitochondrial delay.

Wound Healing: Ozone (O3) has been acknowledged as a potent antimicrobial agent since the 1800’s when used topically. O3 also activates immune, anti-inflammatory signaling, proteasome, releases growth factors, and improves blood circulation. (4) (6)

Cancer treatment: Oxygen is the fundamental building block of life and crucial for survival. Receiving enough oxygen is even more imperative for those who are battling cancer. The lack of health that exists in each cancer cell has to do with impaired-oxygenation, impoverished nutrition, and toxic overload. Genetic mutations further incapacitate the cells normal biological functions and Cancer further depletes the cells oxygen supplies. As such, it is important that oxygen related therapies are integrated into the overall treatment plan of cancer warriors. This can be accomplished through Medical Ozone Therapy. But how exactly does ozone therapy benefit those with cancer? The answer is simple. Unlike healthy cells, cancer cells and infected cells do not like oxygen. Ozone is a great adjunctive therapy along and can improve response to chemotherapy.

Lyme Disease: Not only does ozone go after the Borrelia and kill it in all the places where antibiotics and your immune system can’t function, but the ozone increases the mitochondrial function of every cell in your body and, therefore, it really boosts your immune system. Ozone has a direct effect on your red blood cells. It increases their metabolism and increases your red blood cells’ ability to carry oxygen and deliver it to all the tissues in your body. Just like cancer cells, Borrellia spirochaete don’t like oxygen. (5)
