Why do Ozone?

Ear and Nasal Ozone Insufflation Therapy offers a non-invasive, medication-free alternative for treating both acute and chronic conditions. With minimal recovery time and virtually no side effects, ozone therapy is an effective solution for a wide range of health concerns, helping to restore balance and promote healing naturally.

General Benefits (Applicable to Both)

  1. Pain Relief: Helps reduce pain caused by infections or inflammation.
  2. Anti-inflammatory Effects: Reduces inflammation, easing symptoms in chronic conditions.
  3. Improved Oxygenation: Enhances oxygen delivery and uptake in treated tissues.
  4. Tissue Regeneration: Stimulates healing and repair of damaged tissues.
  5. Immune Modulation: Strengthens the immune system and promotes faster recovery.
  6. Enhanced Circulation: Improves blood flow to the treated areas.
  7. Detoxification: Neutralizes toxins and supports cellular detox pathways.
  8. Antimicrobial Action: Kills bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites.
  9. Reduction in Oxidative Stress: Balances free radicals and supports overall health.
  10. Non-Invasive Therapy: Safe and well-tolerated when administered properly.

Ear & Nasal Ozone Insufflation Therapy

Ozone (O3), composed of three oxygen atoms, is a potent, naturally occurring molecule known for its ability to kill bacteria, viruses, fungi, and yeast. By stimulating the body’s innate healing mechanisms, ozone therapy activates a chain reaction that encourages the body to rebalance and repair itself without relying on potentially harmful medications. Its positive charge makes it effective at neutralizing and destroying negatively charged microorganisms commonly found in the ears, nose, and sinuses. As a result, ozone therapy offers a safe, medication-free treatment option for a variety of conditions.

More than 40,000 doctors worldwide use ozone therapy to treat a wide range of health issues, thanks to its remarkable ability to promote healing and fight infections.

Ear Ozone Therapy

The ear is made up of three regions: the inner, middle, and outer ear. Infections can develop in any of these areas, with the middle and outer ear being the most commonly affected. These infections, caused by bacteria or viruses, can lead to pain, inflammation, dizziness, headaches, fever, and hearing problems.

Chronic ear infections often occur when the Eustachian tube fails to drain fluid from the middle ear. This condition can be exacerbated by a weakened immune system, common in individuals with upper respiratory issues, diabetes, or chronic skin conditions. Untreated chronic infections can result in permanent hearing loss, often manifesting as tinnitus (ringing in the ears).

Ozone ear insufflation is an effective treatment for ear infections, helping to sterilize the ear and prevent future infections from developing.

Benefits of Ear Ozone Therapy:

  • Treats ear infections
  • Aids in sinus and throat infection recovery
  • Fights fungal infections
  • Supports mold toxicity recovery
  • Alleviates cold and flu symptoms
  • Reduces swelling of lymphatic glands
  • Helps with inner ear acoustic trauma
  • Improves vasodilation and antioxidant levels
  • Promotes tissue repair and regeneration
  • May prevent hearing loss due to acoustic trauma
  • Improves conditions like tinnitus, vertigo, and nystagmus (uncontrolled rapid eye movements)

How Ear Ozone Insufflation Works:

During the procedure, the patient sits comfortably while an ear scope (similar to a stethoscope/headphones) is used. A nozzle will deliver ozone gently into the ear canal, stimulating nerve receptors to reduce pain and eliminate pathogens causing infection. Sessions typically last 8-15 minutes, depending on the individual’s condition. Initial studies show that 67% of patients report total pain relief within two hours after treatment.

Nasal Ozone Therapy

The nasal passages and sinuses are common entry points for viruses, bacteria, and other harmful microorganisms, often serving as breeding grounds for infection. Nasal ozone insufflation delivers medical-grade ozone directly into these areas, where it is quickly absorbed and works to fight off infections. This method is effective for both acute and chronic conditions and may help prevent future problems.

The ozone is carefully passed through olive oil to ensure safe inhalation. This technique is a natural and effective alternative to medications, offering numerous benefits without the risk of side effects.

Benefits of Nasal Ozone Therapy:

  • Reduces sinus pressure and inflammation
  • Alleviates symptoms of acute and chronic sinusitis
  • Treats upper respiratory infections
  • Eases asthma and bronchitis symptoms
  • Kills bacteria and viruses
  • Helps with allergies

How Nasal Ozone Insufflation Works:

The patient will lie comfortably while a nasal cannula is placed in the nose. This cannula will gently deliver ozone directly into the nasal passages, stimulating the body’s natural defense mechanisms. Sessions typically last 8-15 minutes, depending on the individual’s needs. Dr. Nathan Eldredge will determine the optimal ozone dosage to ensure a safe and effective treatment experience.
