Ozone Therapy

Ozone is a natural, odorless gas discovered in the 1840s that has a wide range of therapeutic applications. It can be administered intravenously, rectally, vaginally, through the ear, and via joint injections — and it has been used for over 100 years to treat inflammatory and immune conditions.

How Ozone Therapy Works

How is a gas this therapeutic and versatile? Ozone is a molecule of three oxygen atoms — compared with the two-atom oxygen molecule we breathe — and that third atom makes it highly reactive, allowing oxygen to enter tissues easily.

Ozone therapy involves the controlled administration of ozone gas (O3) to promote healing and wellness. Its unique molecular properties can be harnessed to stimulate oxygen metabolism, modulate the immune system, and address infection. Historically used for its antimicrobial properties — including in the treatment of wounds during World War I — its application has since expanded across a range of health conditions.

Conditions Ozone Therapy May Support

Chronic or Acute Infections

Ozone's antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal properties can be leveraged to manage many infections across bodily systems. It has even been shown to be effective against Ebola.

Digestive Disorders

Patients with conditions like IBS, Crohn's disease, or chronic gastritis can benefit from improved oxygenation and immune modulation. Ozone can be used for any inflammatory condition of the digestive tract.

Inflammatory & Autoimmune Conditions

Ozone's potential anti-inflammatory effects can help manage conditions like arthritis and other auto-inflammatory or autoimmune disorders.

Varicose & Spider Veins

Ozone can be injected into varicose or spider veins, leading to immediate obliteration of the vein and an improved cosmetic appearance.

Detoxification

Ozone therapy can be incorporated into detoxification protocols to support the body's elimination of waste and toxins.

Modalities We Offer at Whole Gut Health

Ozone Insufflations

Ozone gas is introduced into the body rectally — particularly beneficial for gastrointestinal issues — or vaginally, to help inflammatory disorders like HPV, vaginitis, and yeast infections.

Direct IV Injection

Ozone is injected directly into a vein for the most potent systemic effect. The ozonated blood circulates through every system in the body — with broad utility in systemic disease.

Topical Ozone Applications

Ozonated oils are applied to the skin to address wounds, infections, or skin conditions. At Whole Gut Health we carry organic ozonated oils.

Ozonated Water

Drinking ozonated water can support detoxification and improve gut health.

Direct Injection

For localized issues, ozone can be injected directly into the affected area.

Our approach

Why Whole Gut Health is different.

At Whole Gut Health, we go beyond conventional symptom management and traditional functional medicine protocols. We trust your body's innate ability to heal itself when given the right support.

In Dr. Shustina's many years of practice, she has seen that many digestive diseases have their root cause in emotional traumas and unhealed wounds. When these underlying causes are healed, the body can heal from the inside out in a lasting way.

We focus on the mind-gut connection, incorporating energy healing techniques, personalized nutrition that evolves as you heal, and integrative approaches addressing mind, body, and spirit. If this resonates with you, contact our office to schedule your consultation and take the first step on your healing journey.
