Ozone therapy is a medical-wellness treatment that uses ozone, a reactive form of oxygen made of three oxygen atoms, or O₃.
Some patients explore ozone therapy for pain, inflammation, fatigue, circulation concerns, or immune support. But before deciding, it is important to understand both the possible benefits and the risks.
Potential Benefits
Research into ozone therapy has explored its possible role in:
- Supporting oxygen metabolism
- Modulating inflammation
- Supporting circulation
- Helping the body respond to oxidative stress
- Complementing broader wellness care
Individual results vary. Ozone therapy is not appropriate for every patient or every condition.
Risks and Safety
Ozone should never be inhaled. Breathing ozone can damage the lungs.
Patients should ask about side effects, treatment method, dosing, frequency, and whether ozone therapy is appropriate for their medical history.
What to Ask Before Treatment
Ask your provider:
- What are we treating?
- What outcome is realistic?
- How many sessions may be needed?
- How will we measure progress?
- What are the risks?
- What standard treatments should continue?
