IV Ozone Therapy

Refresh Your Body With IV Ozone Therapy

IV ozone therapy refers to the process of administering ozone gas into the bloodstream to stimulate the immune system and treat disease and pathogens. IV ozone therapy can be used in a multitude of ways as a powerful healer, as it helps to increase mitochondrial cellular energy production. Ozone (O3) stimulates the uptake of oxygen so that it can be used by cells in the body. When your cells receive a flood of oxygen, they function more optimally- helping your body fight and prevent disease and other variants that cause illness. 

Ozone disrupts the bacterial cell envelope membrane by oxidizing the phospholipids and lipoproteins that make up the cell membrane. Concerning fungi, ozone halts cell growth at certain stages. When it comes to viruses, the ozone damages the viral membrane (capsid) as well as destroys the ability of the virus to reproduce. Since viruses invade healthy cells and edit the DNA so that the healthy cell now produces viruses, this means that these cells are destroyed and then replaced with healthy cells.

Because of the multi-faceted forms of healing ozone delivers, it is used widely for cancer prevention, to kill viruses and harmful bacteria, to expel chemicals and heavy metals, and more.

Benefits of IV Ozone Therapy

Ozone therapy can be used in a variety of conditions, the most significant benefits include: 

  • Help increase oxygen levels in the blood: Ozone causes red blood cells to produce more of a chemical necessary for oxygen to leave the red blood cell and enter into the tissues, where it is needed.  This chemical is therefore vital in the whole circulation of the blood because without it, the oxygen would never reach its destination. Ozone also activates the Krebs inside the mitochondria which is required to produce energy.  Energy in all biological systems is carried in a molecule called, ATP (adenosine tri-phosphate) 
  • Activate the body’s immune system and antioxidant systems which promotes healing throughout the body: Many other aspects of this process of energy production is stimulated by ozone as well as the increasing the cells ability to clean, or detoxify itself through an increase in glutathione, the main chemical compound used by the body to detoxify. 
  • Has antiviral properties which may be used to treat certain viruses:  When ozone comes into contact with viral organisms they explode and die. Ozone is about 4,500 times more powerful at killing these organisms as is chlorine bleach, and of course, chlorine is very toxic to the body, whereas ozone is not. (National Center for Biotechnology Information)
  • Anti-aging benefits: Ozone increases oxygen and circulation in the body, and also supports mitochondrial cell energy. This allows tissue to heal at deeper levels- even producing a “glow” in the skin as your body works to repair and restore. 
  • Infection prevention: Ozone therapy helps blood cells to function properly, improves cell motility, cleans the blood, improves circulation and cellular metabolism, and tends to decrease uric acid in the body. All of these functions help to prevent future infection and inflammation.

This form of oxygen has two powerful effects: it’s instantly lethal to any diseased or non-human cells including cancer, bacteria, viruses, spirochetes, fungi, and parasites and at the same time it strengthens and rejuvenates normal human cells. It also is highly effective at removing heavy metals from tissue, including nerve tissue, making it a preferred method of chelation therapy.

Types of Ozone Treatment

  1. Intravenous Ozone: MAH (Major Autohemotherapy) is one of the safest and most effective ways of receiving Ozone treatment. In one session, two to four ounces of blood are collected in an IV bag. The blood is then mixed with two to four ounces of ozone gas which dissolves into the blood. This blood and ozone mixture is then administered to the patient via IV.
  2. Hi-Dose Ozone: This treatment is a more powerful method to administer larger amounts of ozone to the body. This method uses a pump and vacuum to remove blood, which is then readministered through IV once it is infused with ozone and further “cleaned” with UV light. Higher concentrations of ozone (up to 30x the amount of a single ozone treatment) are used in this procedure and it is considered one of the strongest and most effective ozone treatments. This treatment is used to treat a variety of ailments including Lyme disease, autoimmune diseases, MS, shingles, and herpes viruses.
  3. UVBI: UBVI or Ultraviolet Blood Irradiation is a simple, painless, and safe procedure often paired with 10-pass ozone or MAH treatment. This procedure involves removing about 200cc of blood and passing the blood through a quartz cuvette where it is exposed to ultraviolet light and returned to the bloodstream. The effect of ultraviolet light on the blood creates a chemical energetic response that helps stabilize and balance the red and white blood cells. This addition helps enhance the effects of ozone treatment.

How to Prepare for IV Ozone Therapy

Make sure you speak with your Arne Wellness Center doctor before undergoing any ozone treatment. If you are recommended for this treatment, we will always start with a single ozone treatment to gauge possible herxheimer’s reactions and ensure compatibility with the body. Before an ozone therapy, prepare your body by staying hydrated the night before therapy and the day of treatment. We recommend drinking one gallon of water the day before treatment with a pinch of sea salt or coconut water. This will help prevent clotting during your treatment. Make sure to get plenty of sleep the night before and eat a healthy breakfast the morning of.

Side Effects

IV ozone therapy is considered to be a relatively safe treatment, but there are some potential side effects to lookout for. 

  • Accidental Inhalation: While Ozone is a useful treatment, it is a gas that is dangerous when inhaled. Accidental inhalation can cause mild headache, nausea, and vomiting. 
  • Herxheimer’s reaction: While most patients will leave ozone treatments feeling refreshed and energized, some patients with chronic infections may develop flu-like symptoms as a result of a die-off reaction. Some patients may also experience fatigue after the treatment but this generally resolves within a few hours to a day. 

Ear Ozone Therapy

Ear infections are common, oftentimes caused by bacteria or virus and can cause pain, inflammation, dizziness, headaches, fever, and hearing troubles.

Chronic ear infections are often caused by the Eustachian tube failing to drain the fluid that builds-up within the middle ear region. Chronic ear problems can occur due to weakened immune systems and those with recurring sinus infections.

Ozone ear insufflation is an efficient method in treating ear infections and sterilizing the ear regions to prevent further infection from developing.

Nasal Ozone Therapy

Many studies have shown that virus, bacteria and other invaders enter the body via the nasal canal and sinuses. This is often a site where viruses and bacteria can proliferate before spreading through the body.

Nasal insufflation using medical grade ozone is a quick and effective way to administer disease fighting molecules into the body, as this method is more readily absorbed. Not only does this help with acute and chronic sinus issues but has been shown to prevent future issues from arising. It has also been shown to rapidly fight infection.

With nasal ozone therapy, the ozone is run through olive oil so it can be breathed in safely via nasal cannula. This treatment has a number of benefits that are safe and effective without the use of medications that could potentially have unwanted side effects.

In conclusion, Nasal and Ear Insufflation Ozone Therapy offers an alternative to unwanted medications. Effective in both acute and chronic conditions, utilizing efficient results with minimum recovery time and virtually no side effects.  

Rectal Insufflation

Rectal Insufflation is a form of ozone therapy that is especially valuable for individuals suffering from illnesses or diseases that originate within the gut, colon, or liver. At Arne Wellness Center, rectal insufflation can be utilized as a standalone treatment or combined with other Ozone therapies as part of a customized treatment plan that is specific for you. This form of treatment is a more direct way to target things such as parasites, gut infections, and disease.

 Benefits of Rectal Insufflation

  • Decreases toxins found in the gut and body
  • Boosts the immune system and immune response
  • Restores gut health and function to an optimal state
  • Reduces chronic inflammation throughout the body
  • Kills bacteria, parasites, viruses, and yeast

How Ozone Rectal Insufflation Works

Our nurse will first educate the patient on how to administer the rectal ozone at home- as you will receive a take home insufflation kit. We will then follow the guidelines for administration levels that have been determined by our nurse practitioner. You will then be sent home with a rectal ozone bag and all of the other components needed to administer the ozone. The bag will remain at the strength needed for 30 minutes- giving you half an hour to get home to administer. We recommend being in a comfortable setting when administering as you may have an immediate reaction to the ozone and need to use the restroom more frequently to purge parasites, clear infection, etc.

Excellent Chiropractic interest.

"Excellent chiropractic internist, and acupuncturist. Dr. Arne has been a game changer for our family. He figured my body pain was due to Lyme, which is now dormant due to his treatments. We had chronic sinuses infections, used antibiotics 6-7 times a year, we are now antibiotic free due to Arne’s ability to accurately identify virus/bacterial infections and treat them instead of a doctor handing us an antibiotic to treat what they thought was the issue. Definitely recommend when traditional medicine has failed and you are still searching for answers... Read More

Gentler approach.

"Dr Arne turned my life around. I had been suffering with the effects of Chronic Lyme disease and related co-infections for over a decade, even after 5 years of intense antibiotics, the last 9 months twice a day through an IV. I found Arne Wellness when I decided to eliminate all the toxic pharmaceuticals and try a gentler approach. It worked! Dr Arne guided me on a healing journey that eliminated all my symptoms. Using herbals and energy/frequency medicine, I barely noticed the gradual improvements until, after less than two years of treatment, my Lyme-related issues were resolved... Read More
