Medical ozone therapy uses a carefully controlled mixture of oxygen and ozone generated from medical-grade oxygen. Ozone is a highly reactive form of oxygen that has been studied for its biological signaling effects when administered by trained healthcare professionals using appropriate medical protocols.
Ozone therapy is not a medication. Rather, it is considered a complementary modality that may influence physiological processes related to oxygen utilization, immune signaling, and oxidative balance. Responses vary by individual, and outcomes depend on many factors, including overall health status and the clinical context in which care is provided.
Medical ozone has been studied and utilized internationally for decades, particularly in parts of Europe. In the United States, interest in ozone therapy declined with the rise of pharmaceutical antibiotics and has re-emerged over time within certain integrative and complementary care settings.
Today, ozone therapy is used by licensed healthcare practitioners within the scope of their training and state licensure. Ongoing research continues to explore its biological effects and appropriate clinical applications.
Medical ozone is produced by passing medical-grade oxygen through a specialized ozone generator that uses controlled electrical energy to create a precise oxygen-ozone mixture.
Only medical-grade oxygen and certified medical ozone equipment are used. Oxygen concentrators are not used for systemic ozone applications.
When appropriate and within scope of licensure, ozone may be administered using various medical methods. The route of administration is determined by the clinician based on individual circumstances and safety considerations.
These methods may include:
Topical application to intact or affected tissue
Rectal insufflation
Localized injections into tissues such as joints or soft tissue
Systemic administration using established medical protocols
Ozone is never inhaled.
Ozone therapy is used as part of a broader integrative care approach and is not a stand-alone treatment for disease. It may be combined with other therapies, including nutritional support and I.V. nutrient therapies, when clinically appropriate.
Treatment decisions are individualized. Not all patients are candidates for ozone therapy, and not all conditions are appropriate for its use.

Use of this website does not establish a provider-patient relationship. Medical decisions are made only after appropriate evaluation, informed consent, and within the scope of practice permitted by state law.
We offer a variety of I.V. Nutrient Therapies as a stand-alone service and, when appropriate, in complementary conjunction with our Ozone Therapies.
Ozone therapies are administered separately from high-antioxidant formulations in accordance with established clinical protocols. Treatment plans may be individualized based on a patient’s clinical presentation and provider evaluation, which may include nutritional support or other adjunctive therapies when appropriate.
Care decisions are made collaboratively following evaluation and informed consent, and are delivered in accordance with state scope-of-practice regulations.
