Due to the coronavirus outbreak experienced worldwide, we isolated ourselves at home during the pandemic process to protect against the virus and reduce transmission. We spent a significant portion of our daily lives in our homes. As a result, prolonged periods spent at home, reduced social life, and lack of physical activity led to musculoskeletal system pain.
During the pandemic period, the general increase in anxiety and stress levels, along with prolonged screen time spent in front of computers, phones, and tablets, caused an increase in headaches in both adults and children.
The Immune System Will Not Be the Same as Before
During the pandemic, one of the most important concerns for all of us was maintaining a strong immune system. The most frequently asked question was, “How can we strengthen our immune system?” One of the primary benefits of ozone therapy, which is used as a complementary treatment for various conditions ranging from skin diseases to infectious diseases, is its immune-boosting effect.
The air we breathe contains approximately 21% oxygen. Through ozone therapy, the oxygen level in the blood can be increased up to 100%. When ozone mixes with our blood, it reacts with substances that form red and white blood cells, accelerating metabolism. By increasing the oxygen level in the plasma that carries red and white blood cells, it allows more oxygen to reach the tissues. Ozone gas, which has no side effects, also destroys viruses, bacteria, inflammation, and fungi in the body.
Ozone Therapy for a Strong Immune System
Ozone therapy, a complementary medical treatment, can be described as a natural and healthy booster that strengthens the immune system. Although ozone therapy has been particularly popular in both Europe and our country for the past 20-25 years, it is not a new application. Ozone, a gas found in the atmosphere, has been effectively used in both the disinfection of water and food products and in the medical field for nearly a century due to its antibacterial and antioxidant properties and its lack of side effects.

Ozone Therapy
During the COVID-19 process, ozone therapy has been used for patients in hospitals as a treatment option based on physicians’ decisions.
If you are taking medication, we recommend taking it at least 4 hours before or after ozone therapy. Additionally, avoid consuming any vitamin C-containing products one hour before and one hour after ozone therapy. If you are undergoing chemotherapy, it is advised to wait at least 4 days before receiving ozone therapy.
