MAH- IV Ozone Therapy
For over a century, doctors have been using Ozonetherapy with great success in the treatment of a variety of systemic illnesses. Ozonetherapy simultenously destroys cells that have been damaged by infection or chronic inflammation and stimulates the defense mechanisms of healthy cells. Ozonetherapy is effective for regulating the immune system, and is of great benefit to anyone suffering from allergies, autoimmune conditions, or inflammatory conditions (the root cause of many chronic diseases).
One of the main forms of ozone administration is called Major Autohemotherapy (MAH). In this procedure, a small amount of the patient’s blood is collected in an IV bag, ozone/oxygen is then mixed with the blood, and the blood is dripped back into the patient. Other than the initial needle stick, this is a painless and quick in-office procedure.
Mechanisms of action for ozone therapy:
Supports tissue repair by enhancing the release of growth factors
Up-regulates free radical scavengers such as glutathione peroxidase, catalase and superoxide dismutase
Supports and modulates the immune system
Improves oxygen delivery to cells by stimulating oxygen metabolism
Increases production of cellular energy in the form of ATP
Improves blood circulation and decreases blood viscosity
Maintains Red Blood Cell membrane integrity
Reduces chronic inflammation
Ozonetherapy is useful for:
Chronic fatigue syndrome
Chronic pain syndromes (due to multiple causes)
Acute cold/flu
Diabetes mellitus type II and associated complications
Migraine headaches (vascular and cluster headaches)
Immune Disorders including Autoimmune Diseases
Infectious Diseases (chronic hepatitis, herpes, Lyme disease)
Parkinson's Disease and Alzheimer's Disease
Dementia
Dry macular degeneration
Rheumatoid Arthritis
Fibromyalgia
Canker sores
Various dental infections
Seasonal allergies
Interstitial cystitis
Heart and Blood Vessel Diseases
Peripheral vascular disease (poor circulation)
Cerebral vascular disease (stroke and memory loss)
Cardiovascular disease (heart disease)
Coronary spasm (angina)
Cardiac arrhythmias (irregular heartbeat)
Gangrene (of fingers and toes)
Raynaud's disease ("white finger")
Temporal arteritis (inflammation of the temporal artery)
Type II Hypersensitive reactions (environmental and universal reactors)
Cancer – As adjunct to conventional treatment
