What is Ozone?
Ozone is a gaseous molecule consisting of three oxygen atoms. Unlike the stable state of the oxygen molecule (O2), ozone (O3) is an unstable molecule. In the first years after the discovery of ozone gas, it was used for disinfection purposes. This disinfecting effect of ozone is due to its strong oxidizing property. It not only kills viruses and bacteria, but also can oxidize all microorganisms and their toxins. Thanks to its very strong oxidizing and effective disinfecting properties, it is still used in treatment facilities that provide drinking water around the world.
What is Ozone Therapy?
Medical ozone is obtained from pure oxygen with a medical ozone generator and is used in treatment. is used. Ozone tends to give back the 3rd oxygen atom in its content. This free oxygen molecule is the oxidant; That is, it oxidizes its environment. When this oxidizing molecule is given to the body in low doses, the body becomes immunized against this agent. In other words, the ANTIOXIDANT mechanism is triggered in the body.
Ozone therapy is a treatment method that uses the two powerful potentials of the human body, "antioxidant" and "anti-inflammatory", and strengthens the body against diseases by causing an alarm reaction in the whole body.
When we talk about the therapeutic effects of ozone therapy, we should first think of major autohemotherapy. In this application, the ozone/oxygen mixture mixed into the blood reacts rapidly with molecules and cells and initiates a number of reactions. It helps red blood cells that carry oxygen in the blood release more oxygen to the tissues that need it. In this way, it helps in solving problems caused by "insufficient blood supply" resulting from all kinds of difficult-to-heal wounds, vascular occlusion and circulatory disorders.
In response to this activation caused by repeated ozone therapy sessions, the body's immune cells release special messengers called cytokines (cytokines). produces message carriers). These notify other immune cells by causing a chain reaction throughout the entire immune system, which is stimulated to resist diseases.
Ozone is called 'Breath of God' in Greek. After stormy weather caused by lightning and lightning, the smell of fresh air is felt in high places and by the sea. It is the ozone we breathe in. Ozone (the breath of God) is life itself, the necessity of this therapy for our lives is only now understood, although it has been a known treatment since the Second World War.
