What is Ozone Therapy?
Ozone is a form of oxygen that contains three atoms rather than the usual two. Because ozone is highly reactive, it has a number of unique properties. While still under research, this treatment has been shown to help the blood to become more oxygenated, which can enhance immune system function. It also may kill bacteria in the body by damaging their cell membranes through oxidation reactions, and it can sometimes be used to help the body heal from injuries. To learn more about this treatment, call José A. Ortiz, N.M.D. at Altogether You Med Spa in Phoenix, AZ.

How does Ozone therapy work?
While ozone can be a dangerous gas if too much is inhaled, there has been considerable research that shows ozone dissolved in a water solution can have beneficial effects for treating wounds, circulatory disorders, and general health. At Altogether You Med Spa, our process is to withdraw a small amount of your blood, infuse it with an appropriate amount of ozone, and reintroduce it back into your system. Your medically ozonized blood will then circulate throughout your body, causing improved oxygen retention, which helps to regulate your body's immune system, improve circulation, and provide anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory effects. Some research has shown this treatment to be effective in treating auto-immune disorders, chronic pain, intestinal issues, and more.
