1. Blood: We draw a small amount of blood, mix it with ozone and re-inject it into either the vein or muscle.

2. Rectal insufflation: We deposit ozone gas directly into the colon to provide gastrointestinal support and help detoxify the liver. This is the most common administration method.

3. Direct injection: We give local injections of ozone gas or ozonated saline directly around tumors, wounds or surgical sites, to promote healing.

4. Lungs: Ozone can be breathed in after bubbling through olive oil so it’s not irritating to the lungs. This can help with nasal and respiratory infections, asthma, allergies, and cancer.

5. “Bagging”: Bagging an affected area of the body with the ozone gas to provide a direct external effect on wounds, skin sores and rashes or draining tumors.

6. Infused olive oil: We infuse olive oil with ozone to provide a valuable skin ointment that promotes wound healing.

Although ozone is not commonly used in conventional medicine, it can be a very effective treatment modality to help heal your dog, or prevent illness and degeneration. And, as I mentioned earlier, I’ve found it to be completely free of any harmful side effects.

In the body, ozone combines with amino acids and lipids to create compounds called ozonides.

These ozonides are what actually cause the biological effects of ozone. They can easily pass through cell membranes and exert their main effect … which is to improve energy production through improved oxygen utilization.

That’s why it’s so effective. Cellular degeneration often stems from an inability of the cells to use oxygen efficiently. So ozone therapy can improve the health and function of the body’s cells.

Cells’ ability to use oxygen depends on the amount of NAD (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) that’s available to them. Ozone promotes an oxidation reaction that creates NAD from NADH. (NADH is NAD plus 1 hydrogen atom.) This then provides more energy that the cell can use to function optimally.

Once the cells have the proper amount of energy to work effectively, tissues in the body can heal. Ozonides are also very stable, lasting from days to weeks in the body. This prolongs the benefits of ozone long after the actual treatment.

Ozonotherapy is the use of medical grade ozone, a highly reactive form of pure oxygen, to create a curative response in the body. The body has the potential to renew and regenerate itself. When it becomes sick it is because this potential has been blocked. The reactive properties of ozone stimulate the body to remove many of these impediments thus allowing the body to do what it does best – heal itself.

Ozonotherapy has been and continues to be used in European clinics and hospitals for over fifty years. It was even used here in the United States in a limited capacity in the early part of the 20th century. There are professional medical ozonotherapy societies in over ten countries worldwide. Recently, the International Scientific Committee on Ozonotherapy (ISCO3) was formed to help establish standardized scientific principles for ozonotherapy. The president of the AAO, Frank Shallenberger, MD is a founding member of the ISCO3.

By administering ozone, it is activating the immune system in infectious diseases.

Ozone therapy improves the cellular utilization of oxygen that reduces ischemia in cardiovascular diseases, and in many of the infirmities of aging. It causes the release of growth factors that stimulate damaged joints and degenerative discs to regenerate.

It can dramatically reduce or even eliminate many cases of chronic pain through its action on pain receptors.

Published papers have demonstrated its healing effects on interstitial cystitis, chronic hepatitis, herpes infections, dental infections, diabetes, and macular degeneration.
