Medical Ozone Therapy

What is Medical Ozone Therapy?

Medical ozone therapy is the medicinal use of ozone to help bring the body back into homeostasis. Ozone is a molecule made of 3 oxygen atoms (O3). The instability of this molecule is what gives it healing properties. Oxygen likes to be in pairs rather than in a trio, so the molecule rapidly breaks down into the oxygen we breathe (O2) and a single oxygen molecule (O). The O2 molecule goes on to oxygenate tissues while the unstable single oxygen interacts and destroys harmful bacterial cell walls, viruses, fungi and tumor cells.
