Ozone therapy – is a treatment method that allows for the rapid elimination of arisen oxygen deficiency, improve the glucose consumption by cells and the production of biologically active compounds, balance the function of organs and systems. Main methods of ozone therapy:

1. Intravenous drip of saline solution enriched with ozone
2. Major autohemotherapy with ozone-oxygen mixture
3. Ozone-oxygen insufflations
4. Ozonated vegetable (olive) oil

Ozonated saline solution (OSS) is obtained by passing an ozone-oxygen mixture through a container with saline. The half-life of ozone is about 30 minutes, therefore OSS is prepared immediately before the procedure. Major autohemotherapy with ozone-oxygen mixture (MAHOM) is a method in which the patient's whole blood is mixed with an ozone-oxygen mixture, the composition of which is controlled by a device according to a pre-entered program individually for each patient. For the implementation of BOHT, 100-200 ml of blood is taken from a vein, which is mixed with an ozone-oxygen mixture and returned to the patient intravenously by drip. In this process, ozone engages in various reactions with the components of plasma and blood cells, demonstrating its therapeutic effect. The procedure of intravenous administration of ozonated solution or major autohemotherapy with an ozone-oxygen mixture, like other manipulations, is conducted by the qualified staff of the clinic. The duration of the procedure is about 30 minutes. After its completion, the patient is advised to rest for 10-15 minutes. Optimum treatment involves 6 to 8 sessions of intravenous ozone therapy. Less frequently, the number of procedures may be 10-12. In some diseases, maintenance sessions might be prescribed after the main course of treatment, the number of which is individual. The frequency of the procedures can be constant during the entire course, being 1 procedure every 2-3 days. A more flexible therapy schedule may be used, where the initial sessions are conducted daily or every other day, Subsequent sessions can then be scheduled once every 2-4 days. Maintenance sessions can be held once a week or once every two weeks. After the initial procedures, as a rule, there is an improvement in condition, both subjectively and as confirmed by laboratory tests. Intravenous ozone therapy is used to treat over a hundred different diseases, as well as for disease prevention, body rejuvenation, and increasing resistance to aggressive environmental factors and stresses.
