The area needing treatment is anesthetized and ozone is injected. For example, it will be injected close to the affected nerve root for shingles, close to the herniated disc and into the affected joint for arthritis treatment, and directly into the tumor site if accessible for cancer. This is where the powerful oxidant activity of ozone is put to use. For shingles, the virus resides in the dorsal root ganglion. A safe injection to the bony facets adjacent to the root ganglion allows the ozone to oxidize the viral envelope and destroy the virus. For herniated discs, a study of minimally invasive ozone injections showed success in a majority of cases.
By increasing the amount of oxygen present in the body, ozone therapy is shown to have many benefits. Many of our patients have experienced a reduce in clogging of blood cells, liver detoxified, uric acid decreased, overall improvement of circulation and oxygen supply, viruses, bacteria, and fungus were eliminated, activity of the white blood cells improved, and more.
