Oxygen and Ozone therapy

Systemic Ozone Therapy (Intravenous Medical Ozone Therapy)

Systemic Ozone Therapy, historically referred to as GAET (Grande Auto Emo Terapia) or GAEI (Grande Auto Emo Infusione), is an advanced medical treatment that utilizes the biochemical and physiological properties of medical-grade ozone. This therapy involves a precise mixture of oxygen and ozone administered intravenously to enhance overall health and well-being.

This treatment harnesses the therapeutic potential of ozone through a carefully controlled systemic action, offering widespread benefits throughout the body.

How Does Systemic Ozone Therapy Work?

The procedure involves extracting a specific amount of the patient’s venous blood, enriching it with a carefully measured oxygen-ozone mixture, and promptly reinfusing it intravenously. This process triggers a variety of beneficial biochemical responses, stimulating the body’s natural antioxidant, immune, and anti-inflammatory mechanisms.

Key physiological and therapeutic effects include:

  • Enhanced microcirculation and improved tissue oxygenation.
  • Significant reduction of chronic inflammation and pain.
  • Strengthening of the immune system, boosting the body’s natural defenses against viruses and bacteria.
  • Reduction of oxidative stress through activation of natural antioxidant enzymes such as glutathione, catalase, and superoxide dismutase.
  • Improved cellular metabolism and mitochondrial energy (ATP) production.

Therapeutic Indications

Systemic Ozone Therapy is widely used as a complementary treatment for various conditions, including:

  • Rheumatic and autoimmune diseases such as arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and fibromyalgia.
  • Neurological and neurodegenerative disorders including multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, and neuropathies.
  • Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
  • Cardiovascular and circulatory conditions such as hypertension and chronic venous insufficiency.
  • Chronic infectious and viral conditions, including Herpes Zoster, Epstein-Barr virus, Cytomegalovirus, and Long COVID.
  • Diabetes mellitus and its related vascular complications.
  • Chronic joint, muscle, and spinal pain, including herniated discs, lower back pain, and cervicalgia.
  • Dermatological conditions such as psoriasis, severe acne, and atopic dermatitis.
  • Allergies and immune disorders.

General Health Benefits and Enhanced Quality of Life

Beyond treating specific health conditions, Systemic Ozone Therapy is highly valued for its overall health benefits, aligning closely with principles of preventive and integrative medicine. Reported benefits include:

  • Increased overall energy and vitality.
  • Enhanced psychophysical well-being.
  • Improved recovery from physical, mental, and emotional stress.
  • Deeper, more restful sleep with significant improvements in sleep quality.
  • Reduction of anxiety and depressive symptoms due to improved biochemical and metabolic balance.

This therapy has no contraindications compared to traditional therapeutic approaches and offers significant advantages such as: it is  minimally invasive enough to be practiced in the clinic without there being any risk of worsening the problem in post-treatment as it can happen with the surgical approach; it does not have the typical side effects of classic anti-inflammatory drugs such as gastrointestinal ones, from interaction with other drugs, allergies etc. It is noteworthy to underline that together with oxygen – “paravertebral” ozone therapy there are also “intraforaminal” and “intradiscal” paths of  administration that are practiced with radio-guided technique and with the patient sedated in the operating room in specific cases of “complicated herniated disc”. The hernial pathology of the spinal column, if not treated properly, is progressively disabling for the patient who is affected as well as directing it to an excessive use of drugs that would only have a palliative role and can definitely determine both consequences on work and life relationship.
