Ozone therapy is a safe, natural, and effective medical treatment that uses medical-grade ozone (O₃)—a molecule made up of three oxygen atoms—to stimulate healing in the body. Unlike pharmaceutical drugs that often treat only the symptoms, ozone therapy works with your body to restore balance, enhance immunity, and support long-term recovery.
In functional and integrative medicine, ozone is valued for its ability to increase oxygen utilization at the cellular level—which is critical for energy production, detoxification, immune response, and tissue repair. When administered under the guidance of an experienced physician like Dr. Linette Williamson, ozone therapy can help reverse the cycle of chronic inflammation and immune dysfunction that underlies many complex health conditions.
How Ozone Therapy Works
When introduced into the body in carefully measured doses, ozone activates a range of biological processes, including:
- Improved oxygen metabolism – Helps your cells use oxygen more efficiently, supporting energy and mitochondrial health
- Immune modulation – Balances an overactive or underperforming immune system, which is especially helpful for autoimmune conditions or chronic infections
- Detoxification – Stimulates antioxidant enzymes and liver function to reduce oxidative stress and toxin buildup
- Tissue repair and regeneration – Promotes faster healing by increasing blood flow and oxygen delivery to damaged areas
Who Benefits from Ozone Therapy?
Chronic Fatigue, Brain Fog, and Fibromyalgia
If you're constantly exhausted, mentally foggy, or dealing with widespread body pain, ozone therapy can help restore mitochondrial function and cellular energy. It’s a powerful way to reboot your system and support clearer thinking, deeper rest, and pain relief—especially for those with fibromyalgia or adrenal burnout.
Autoimmune Conditions
(Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Hashimoto’s)
Ozone helps modulate immune activity, making it less reactive yet more efficient. This is especially helpful for patients with autoimmune diseases, where the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own tissues. Ozone reduces systemic inflammation and helps calm autoimmune flares safely and naturally.
Chronic Infections
(Lyme, Epstein-Barr Virus, Mold Illness)
Chronic infections are notoriously difficult to resolve, often leaving patients feeling trapped in cycles of relapse. Ozone therapy enhances the body’s natural defenses and creates an oxygen-rich environment that’s hostile to bacteria, viruses, and fungi—helping the body finally fight back.
Long COVID and Post-Viral Syndromes
Ozone therapy is increasingly used to treat lingering post-COVID symptoms, such as fatigue, shortness of breath, joint pain, and brain fog. By reducing inflammation, supporting circulation, and clearing residual viral debris, ozone offers hope to those struggling with long COVID or other viral syndromes.
Arthritis, Joint Pain, and Musculoskeletal Conditions
Whether from injury, arthritis, or degeneration, joint and soft tissue pain can severely affect your quality of life. Prolozone therapy (ozone + nutrients injected into painful joints) helps reduce pain, stimulate repair, and improve mobility—without drugs or surgery.
Cardiovascular and Circulatory Support
Ozone therapy improves blood flow, oxygenation, and red blood cell flexibility—making it ideal for those with circulation problems, high blood pressure, or cardiovascular risk factors.
Detoxification, Gut Health & Inflammation
Toxin buildup and poor gut function can trigger everything from skin rashes and fatigue to autoimmune flares. Ozone enhances liver detox pathways, supports gut integrity, and reduces chronic inflammation—helping the body reset and recover from toxic overload.
Immune Dysfunction & Recurrent Illness
If you’re catching every cold or feeling like your immune system is either underperforming or overreacting, ozone therapy offers natural immune modulation. It recalibrates your immune system, improving resilience and reducing the frequency of illness.
Ozone Therapy Methods Offered at Dr. Linette’s Clinic
EBOO Therapy
EBOO is the most advanced form of systemic ozone therapy available today. It works by drawing a small amount of your blood, filtering and infusing it with medical-grade ozone and oxygen, and then returning it to your body—gently and continuously during the treatment session.
What It Helps With:
- Chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia
- Autoimmune conditions like lupus and rheumatoid arthritis
- Mold illness and Lyme disease
- Long COVID symptoms
- Full-body detox and immune system reset
EBOO is ideal for patients with complex or stubborn conditions who need a deeper, more comprehensive form of healing. It’s painless, highly effective, and performed under close medical supervision.
IV Ozone Therapy
In IV ozone therapy, a small amount of your blood is drawn and gently mixed with ozone, then infused back into your body through an IV. This process stimulates oxygenation, supports immune function, and encourages detoxification.
What It Helps With:
- Low energy, chronic infections, or poor immune resilience
- Brain fog and cellular stress
- Autoimmune flares or inflammation
- General wellness, recovery, and anti-aging support
This therapy is popular because it's quick, effective, and well tolerated, making it a great option for patients who are new to ozone therapy or looking for a supportive boost between deeper treatments like EBOO.
Prolozone Therapy
Prolozone therapy is a regenerative injection that combines medical-grade ozone with healing nutrients—like vitamins, minerals, and natural anti-inflammatories. This powerful blend is injected directly into painful joints, ligaments, or soft tissues, making it an excellent option for chronic musculoskeletal conditions.
What It Helps With:
- Arthritis (knees, hips, shoulders)
- Degenerative joint pain
- Sports injuries and overuse pain
- Back pain and sciatica
- Post-surgical recovery and scar tissue
Because ozone stimulates tissue repair, collagen production, and oxygenation, Prolozone can reduce pain and improve mobility—without the need for steroids, painkillers, or surgery. Many patients report long-lasting relief in just a few treatments.
Ozone Insufflation (Rectal or Vaginal)
Ozone insufflation is a needle-free therapy that delivers ozone gas gently into the body through the rectum or vaginal canal, where it is absorbed by mucosal tissue and enters the bloodstream. This method is safe, comfortable, and extremely effective for addressing internal inflammation, infections, and hormone imbalances.
What It Helps With:
- Gut dysbiosis and leaky gut
- IBS, bloating, or candida overgrowth
- Liver detox and lymphatic drainage
- Vaginal or pelvic inflammation
- Hormone-related concerns like PMS or perimenopause
This option is particularly valuable for patients looking for non-invasive, non-IV therapies that still offer systemic benefits. It’s often used alongside other forms of ozone therapy to amplify detoxification and immune regulation.
Topical Ozone and Ozone Bagging
For external concerns, topical ozone therapy and ozone bagging offer powerful localized healing. In ozone bagging, a limb or affected area is enclosed in a soft, sealed bag filled with medical ozone. For smaller areas, ozonated oils or gas can be applied directly to the skin.
What It Helps With:
- Slow-healing wounds and ulcers
- Post-surgical incisions or scars
- Skin infections (bacterial, viral, or fungal)
- Chronic conditions like eczema, psoriasis, or dermatitis
- Diabetic foot wounds or circulation-related skin problems
Topical ozone helps disinfect, increase circulation, reduce inflammation, and speed up tissue repair—making it a natural and effective alternative to antibiotics or harsh topical medications.
What to Expect at Your First Visit
Advanced Lab Testing (If Needed)
Depending on your symptoms and health status, Dr. Linette may recommend specialized lab testing to get a clearer picture of what’s happening in your body. This may include:
- Hormone panels (for thyroid, adrenal, or reproductive hormones)
- Inflammatory markers and oxidative stress indicators
- Toxin exposure (mold, heavy metals)
- Immune response and viral load panels
- Nutrient and gut health assessments
Customized Wellness Plan
Once your lab results (if applicable) are reviewed, Dr. Linette will create a holistic wellness plan tailored to your needs, which may include:
- Ozone therapy (EBOO, IV, Prolozone, or insufflation)
- Nutritional support and personalized supplementation
- Detox strategies and lifestyle guidance
- Additional therapies, such as NAD+, TheraLumen light therapy, or Methylene Blue, if appropriate
