Bring in the New Year with Good Health!

As we say farewell to 2015, we would like to take a moment to thank every one of our patients for putting their health in our hands.

From humans to animals, our Ozone Therapy has been effective in treating many of the illnesses, afflictions and diseases that our patients have presented with at The Ozone Pod this year.

Dr Mitch and Trisch will be attending the American Ozonotherapists Association's week long course in the new year, bringing back new treatment protocols and updated modalities so that we can give even better care to our patients and increase our stable of adjunct therapies at our wellness centre.

We wish you all a very HEALTHY and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Ozone Treatment helps Eczema Patient

Our patient, Jean (not her real name) arrived at The Pod with cracked hands from a very bad outbreak of eczema.  She had spent quite some time trying various alternative remedies along with some allopathic medications.

Eczema frequently includes very dry patches of skin which can make the skin so fragile that it cracks very easily (as in Jean's case). The raised skin of eczema may also resemble that of severe sunburn or a peeling blister or callus and in some cases, may even cause raw and open wounds.  In others, peeling skin reveals broken skin or open blisters. These should be carefully treated to avoid introducing a bacterial or viral infection, which ozone treats due to its disinfectant properties.  In some severe cases of eczema, cracking of the skin, oozing and bleeding can become dangerous as infection is quick likely to set in due to the skin wounds.

While Ozone can irritate dry skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis, when applied in low enough doses and over a longer period of time, some relief can be attained in these patients.  Ozone is also a natural disinfectant, so it stood to reason that having oxygen therapy would at least the very least clear up (and in turn prevent) any infection.  We could see that there was already some infection in her hands and so we offered Jean Pod sessions to help boost her immune system as well as Ozone Gel to use on her hands at night.  While waiting for her first Pod session, Jean applied the Ozone Gel and wrapped her hands in clingwrap (we said gloves, Jean!) at bedtime and within three days she had already seen a marked difference.

Before Treatment (already 3 days use of Ozone Gel)

The photo's at left are from before her first treatment on 30 November (after she had already started using the Ozone Gel) and her third treatment on 19 December 2015.

You can see that she had taped up areas of her hand where the eczema was starting to crack beneath the creases in her fingers.



Three weeks later, Jean was thrilled to see how the infected areas had cleared up.  While the skin on her hands were now very dry, she told us that she had more movement and could open and close her hands without feeling like they were going to burst open.

After Three Treatments
(The redness of her hand is because she
had just got out of the Pod and was still quite hot)

Jean will continue on a maintenance program, along with our recommendation of using various essential oil blends to moisturise her hands without causing any further harm or irritation.  We have also suggested she sees a hand therapist for mobility exercises to get the muscles working again. And naturally, to keep up with her Ozone treatments!

IS OZONE SAFE?

IS OZONE SAFE?

Many of our first-time patients ask this question.

5.5 MILLION Ozone treatments say YES!

The German Medical Society reported that 384,775 patients were treated with 5,579,238 applications of ozone (an average of 14 treatments per patient) and that the side effect rate was only 0.00005 per application.

Let’s talk about the side effects. 

These are minor inconveniences and are short-lived, so those who do get a headache after their first session, or who might ‘feel lousy’ afterwards, are merely oxidising their inner garbage.

During detoxification, your body might start mimicking all your previous diseases.  Imagine a cell in your body as an onion.  As you peel it, layer for layer, the ozone starts removing the toxicity in your body.  As each layer is peeled away, the ozone removes the leftover remnants of diseases, pollutants, drugs, dead bacteria and viruses which have not been flushed out.  

While they are inert, their chemical signatures still abound.

As they are then oxidised and start leaving the body, one might experience similar symptoms to what you first encountered.  

But the more treatments, the more peeling takes place, and eventually one is at the core of the cell which now is well oxygenated and therefore able to tackle any new pollutants.

At The Pod, we treat our patients gently, increasing the dosage of Ozone slowly and spread over a longer period of time.  This allows the body to flush out toxins, rebuild, flush out, rebuild and so on until the patient once again regains their health without suffering any severe side effects.

By comparison, look at how many people die from drug-related side effects each day throughout the world.  As an example, in the USA, more than 40 people will die from overdosing on prescription drugs, of which just over 50% is through accidental ingestion of a combination of drugs. 

So a very slight headache from ozone therapy surely is encouragement that Ozone Therapy is SAFE.
