Ozone (O3) comes from the Greek word “ozein”, which means “to smell”. Ozone therapy is the use of ozone gas for medical purposes. Ozone gas is a compound of oxygen molecules and is known as the ozone layer in nature. Ozone therapy is a treatment method for various health problems such as inflammation, infections, wound healing in the body by utilizing the properties of ozone gas. Ozone therapy is based on antimicrobial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects thanks to the properties of ozone gas. Ozone gas increases the oxygen utilization of cells, allowing cells to function better. This accelerates the body’s healing process.
What are the Medical Effects of Ozone?
The medical effects of ozone are as follows:
- Antioxidant effects: Ozone acts as an antioxidant by scavenging free radicals and reduces cell damage.
- Immune modulation: Ozone modulates the immune system by increasing cytokines that stimulate and regulate the immune system.
- Anti-inflammatory effects: Ozone exerts anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting chemical mediators that cause inflammation.
- Antibacterial and antiviral effects: Ozone can inhibit the growth of bacteria, viruses and fungi and therefore helps in the treatment of infections.
- Improving blood circulation: Ozone therapy increases blood circulation, allowing oxygen and nutrients to be better transported to cells.
- Pain reducing effects: Ozone therapy has an analgesic effect by reducing pain.
In order to achieve these effects, ozone is mixed with oxygen and applied in certain doses. In our clinic, the dose and number of sessions to be applied for each person is determined by the physician by making a holistic evaluation.
Is Ozone Therapy Good for Diabetes?
Ozone therapy is used as a treatment for various health problems such as diabetes. Diabetes is a condition in which the body’s ability to produce or use insulin, the hormone that controls blood sugar levels, is impaired. By increasing blood circulation in diabetic patients, ozone therapy can increase the cells’ use of insulin and reduce insulin resistance.
In many studies, ozone therapy has been observed to lower blood glucose levels and reduce insulin resistance in patients with diabetes. Ozone therapy can also be used to treat diabetic complications such as peripheral neuropathy in diabetic patients.
My cholesterol is high, can I have ozone therapy?
Yes, ozone therapy is effectively used in arteriosclerosis and chronic inflammation that causes an increase in the bad cholesterol LDL in the body.
Some studies show that ozone therapy helps lower blood cholesterol levels. Ozone therapy helps to lower cholesterol levels by increasing blood circulation and breaking down fats in the body.
I have fibromyalgia, Is Ozone Therapy Good?
Ozone therapy is used as a treatment method for chronic pain syndromes such as fibromyalgia. Fibromyalgia is a disease characterized by symptoms such as widespread muscle pain, fatigue and sensory sensitivity and has a high incidence today, especially in women.
With ozone therapy, we obtain anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving effects that can help reduce pain in fibromyalgia.
Many studies show that ozone therapy reduces pain in fibromyalgia patients. Ozone therapy improves blood circulation, better transport of oxygen and nutrients to cells and tissue regeneration. In addition, ozone therapy can reduce inflammation by regulating immune system functions.
Is Ozone Therapy Applied in Heart Diseases?
Ozone therapy provides vasodilation by increasing nitric oxide production in the body. This allows the body’s tissues and organs to receive more oxygen and nutrients.
Ozone therapy can also reduce infections and inflammation by increasing blood circulation and activating the body’s natural defense mechanisms.
There are many studies on the use of ozone therapy in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. These studies show that ozone therapy has effects such as lowering blood pressure, increasing blood circulation, increasing oxygen metabolism, reducing vascular inflammation and inhibiting lipid peroxidation.
With ozone therapy, we obtain anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving effects that can help reduce pain in fibromyalgia.
Many studies show that ozone therapy reduces pain in fibromyalgia patients. Ozone therapy improves blood circulation, better transport of oxygen and nutrients to cells and tissue regeneration. In addition, ozone therapy can reduce inflammation by regulating immune system functions.
Is Ozone Therapy Effective in Autoimmune Diseases?
Ozone therapy is effective in the treatment of autoimmune diseases and should be applied by ozone therapists with personalized dosing.
It can be used in the treatment of autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis and Crohn’s disease.
Ozone therapy has several effects that may be beneficial in the treatment of autoimmune diseases:
It helps relieve the symptoms of autoimmune diseases by reducing the hyperactivity of the immune system. It can reduce the damage caused by autoimmune diseases by reducing inflammation, speeding up the body’s natural repair process and allowing cells to regenerate.

In Which Forms Is Ozone Therapy Performed?
Major Ozone Therapy: This method involves injecting ozone gas into the patient’s veins using a needle. This method can be used to treat chronic fatigue syndrome, cancer, infections, allergies, heart disease and other chronic health problems.
Minor Ozone Therapy: This method involves injecting ozone gas under the skin with a small needle. This method can be used to treat allergies, asthma, skin problems, arthritis, sinusitis and other health problems.
Rectal ozone therapy: Rectal ozone therapy is done by injecting ozone gas into the rectum. This method can be used to treat intestinal problems and strengthen the immune system.
Ozone injection: Ozone injection is done by injecting ozone gas into various body parts. This method can be used to treat pain, hernias, inflammation and infections.
Blood ozone therapy: Blood ozone therapy is done by injecting ozone gas into the patient’s blood. This method can be used to strengthen the immune system, treat chronic fatigue and treat cardiovascular diseases.
Ozone Therapy with Saline Physiologic: It means the use of ozone gas by dissolving it in saline solution. This treatment method can be applied at lower doses and more than once.
Multipass Ozone Therapy
It is a method, also known as the Lahondy method, which we can call multiple ozone therapy, applied by giving ozone to the body in consecutive ways. As a highly effective ozone treatment option, we apply it to our patients in our clinic.
The patient is ozonized with saline and repeated again and again. This process is repeated 10 times. It is applied as an effective and reliable treatment option especially in cardiovascular diseases, chronic diseases and cancer patients.
It increases stem cell formation, modulates the immune system and gives vitality. Reduces chronic toxin load, reduces mitochondrial dysfunction.
Diseases for which it can be used:
- Diabetes
- Autoimmune diseases
- Arthritis
- Cardiovascular diseases
- Viral and bacterial infections
- Chronic fatigue syndrome
- Fibromyalgia
- Detoxification
