How to Use Ozone Therapy to Boost Immune Systems



Ozone therapy is a relatively new alternative health practice that purportedly uses oxygen, ozone or hydrogen peroxide to kill disease microorganisms, boost immune systems and improve cellular function. Proponents of this practice believe that the therapy helps satisfy and increase the body's antioxidant needs while cleansing and rejuvenating the blood and other fluids. Patients suffering from cancer, diabetes, chronic fatigue, pneumonia or influenza say they have experienced improvements thanks to ozone therapy.

Locate a reputable ozone therapy practitioner via the Web or visit a trusted referral who has a hyperbaric oxygen chamber.

Use Ozone Therapy to Boost Immune Systems




1


Access an ozone therapy practitioner.





2


Inquire about "autohemotherapy," a process by which blood is removed, treated with oxygen and ozone and returned to the body. This unusual treatment may very positively impact your immune system.





3


Request specific "ozone bagging" treatments. This process is also thought to assist the immune system by taking an airtight bag filled with ozone and oxygen and surrounding an area of the body, which then absorbs the mixture.





4


Aid stomach function through rectal insufflation. This process introduces oxygen and ozone through the rectum. They purportedly enter the intestines and are absorbed immediately, aiding digestion and boosting blood flow and immunity.





5

Before you start any alternative medical technique, be aware that many have not been scientifically evaluated. Often, only limited information is available about their safety and effectiveness. Each state and each discipline has its own rules about how alternative medicine practitioners can be professionally licensed. If you decide to visit one, choose one licensed by a recognized national organization. Consult your primary health care provider about your decision first. Keep your doctor informed about the alternative medical technique you undertake.
