Ozone Therapy

Ozone therapy is an effective alternative medicine used to add more oxygen to your blood

Ozone therapy is an effective alternative medicine used to add more oxygen to your blood. It can also activate your immune system and help flush infected cells from your body. It is especially valuable for its ability to inhibit the harmful effects of pathogenic bacteria, viruses, fungi, and more.

Ozone is a colorless gas made up of three oxygen atoms. Ozone therapy improves how much oxygen you absorb and use. Its numerous medical benefits include:

​

  • Stimulating the immune system

  • Stopping the growth of bacteria, viruses, fungi, and other microorganisms

  • Treating disease

  • Keeping an infection from spreading throughout your body

  • Increasing blood oxygen levels to boost the body’s natural healing abilities

  • Improving circulation

  • Regulating hormone production

  • Reducing pain and inflammation

  • Stopping bleeding

What to Expect

There are several different ways Dr. Fulmes can administer ozone therapy. For example, it may be applied in gas form, directly to a skin wound. Note that special care is taken in these instances because inhaling ozone directly could damage the lungs. Ozone gas may also be mixed into oil and applied to the skin.

Ozone therapy can be delivered via an injection into muscle tissue, joints, and may also be mixed with some of your blood or another sterile fluid and reinfused into the body. It can also be diffused in water, which a patient then drinks. Dr. Fulmes may also prescribe an ozone enema to decrease inflammation and boost your immune system function.
