Ozone Therapy is a non-invasive medical treatment that involves the use of medical-grade ozone gas. Ozone gas is a form of oxygen. Ozone gas is essentially oxygen consisting of three atoms, lacking color. It plays an essential role in protecting the earth's surface from harmful UV radiation by forming a protective layer in the upper atmosphere. The ozone is used in different ways depending on the treated condition. It can be delivered through injections, IVs, insufflation, or topical application. Ozone Therapy has been used for decades to treat various medical conditions, including chronic pain.
