| Has anyone ever used ozone therapy on your horses? What did you use it for and what were your results? Was it expensive or worth the $$. TIA |

| I have used IV ozone with good results for a respiratory condition. I would use it in a heartbeat for illnesses. What would you be using it for and what is the cost? |

| I do my own horses IV and bag wounds for other's. I love it. It saved my horse from Lyme's disease, that's why I started doing it. |

| It was recommended to a friend and Neither of us know anything about it. I was told it was helpful with horses that have low immunity or are sick a lot and I have a horse like that so I thought it might be worth it. He's been diagnosed in a year with epm, cancer, ppsm, epm again, ulcers, kidney stones and that's all I can think of for now. I never did the spinal tap or strand, test for epm bc I don't think that's his issue at all and we did one full 30 day treatment with no change.
Do y'all know the cost? |

Depends on the people in your area. It's not very common so peoples' prices can range significantly. |

| It is the injection of highly reactive pure oxygen into the body is what we are talking about correct? I had to google and then watch a youtube video. I've never heard of this treatment... |

          Location: Bastrop, Texas | It's your money, of course, but I would suggest you spend it on something else. It has never been shown to be effective. For decades now quacks and other people have tried using ozone injected into almost every oriface in the human body, including the rectum as well as IV. The consensus, so far, I believe is that it has no role in either human or animal medicine. Of course, I could be wrong. Maybe something has come up that I'm unaware of, but I would be surprised.
Simply put: QUACKERY. |

Yeah, but you gotta admit, it does sound cool. Like a street rod that runs on nitro. Badass. Give the connotation of jet fuel or something like that. |

                    Location: In the Hills of Texas | This is what it said on WEB MD Ozone therapy is the use of ozone gas to treat certain medical conditions. It is most commonly practiced in Europe.
Ozone therapy is used for “slipped disks” in the spine, diabetes, heart disease, cancer, an eye disease called macular degeneration, and Parkinson's disease. It is also used for treating abscesses and other signs of infections. Ozone is sometimes used to stop dental cavities from progressing.
How does it work? Ozone is a naturally occurring chemical that consists of three oxygen atoms. Ozone is a powerful oxidizing agent. High concentrations of ozone can be toxic to living organisms and are considered a major source of pollution.
However, small ozone doses are thought to increase some naturally occurring antioxidants in the body. Antioxidants help to fight off cancer and benefit the body in other ways as well. |

Yup, you can find a lot of doctors who will give you all the ozone for a lot of things and they swear by it.

Horses don't know placebos. When the only thing that kept my horse from spiking temps was Ozone, heck yeah, I'll use it! I've done it on myself and slept better and had more energy than I have in a long time.
Yes, Ozone gas is toxic. . . That is if you're referring to our ozone layer, but that is because it is not pure medical grade oxygen it is mixed with, it is nitrogen and all the bad things. The reason the "ozone layer" is so important to our health is that it attacks the toxics that are out in space.
Continue your research. You will only find bad things on ozone therapy if they have used air or something other than MEDICAL oxygen.

| But I suppose everyone has their own opinion. I believe you shouldn't judge it until you've used it personally though. There is research on it that proves it has helped a LOT of things, I would do your own research and not take other's opinions (wether it's mine or anyone) before making an opinion on something you've never seen before. |

Kathy, you need to go back and read up on Ozone therapy on WebMD. I don't think you read that section very carefully. They clearly indicate there is insufficient evidence to support it's use. |

Atmospheric oxygen is not pure oxygen. It is mixed with other particles. Medical oxygen is clean, pure oxygen.
Yes oxygen is oxygen. Let me be more correct. Dirty air vs oxygen. |

" If there's something that may be very effective and may under sell the average drug company, of course their not going to be very pleased if that gets developed."
The FDA is run by pharmacists, of course they don't want ozone to have a good name! Ive personally done cancer, non sweaters, and EPM in horses. |

I can always predict when these kinds of discussions arise, invariably there is a switch in focus away from the topic to the FDA, doctors, and pharmacists.
That's usually a last resort when logic and reason titers get dangerously low.
I'm actually a little embarrassed that I even jumped into this discussion. My hope is that maybe someone benefits, avoids quackery, and saves themselves money in the process.

It love Jesus, but it saddens me to report that "Healthy Christian Living" is not a highly regarded, peer reviewed medical/scientific journal.
Another thing - just because some article says it has "scientific references" doesn't mean they are real references, or references from reputable publications.
As far as I know, Ozone has no legitimate place in the treatment of any illness or condition in humans or animals. In theory one can see where it might be attractive, just like "blood letting" for infections was attractive to practitioners in the 15th century, but there is no good evidence that it works for anything. There has been some debate over whether ozone might be beneficial with vertebral disc disease, but even that is hotly debated, as the evidence supporting it's use is weak, at best.
Bottom line: follow the money. If you can't do that, then just listen for quacking. |

I am by law allowed to do my own horses IV and do external for other people.
There are many vets that do have ozone therapy that are very highly recommended, and respected that do use ozone. It's a shame you only want to bash something because you have never experienced it.
I am thankful for someone introducing it to me as it is the only reason my horse is here today. I am not going to get rude and ugly like you are doing. I didn't believe it at first, I had to see it work for my own eyes; but after spending thousands of dollars trying to find out what was wrong with a horse and only got told that's not it and we still don't know, the cost of ozone was NOTHING.
I do know the difference between air and oxygen. Again, excuse me for not being politically correct. |

| Thank you for your reply since you do have experience with it. I had a horse on his death bed, that 4 different vets couldn't diagnose after spending thousands of dollars. They were trying to schedule the date for me to euthanize him. In a last ditch effort, I went to someone that was a holistic vet, that all the other vets said was a quack. (Ironic the wording bc it's a lot of what I'm hearing here from a doctor and others). Anyhow, that quack saved my horse when they couldn't and in 6 weeks he was back 100%!
I will take holistic and non modern medicine all day long, I watched modern medicine kill my healthy 62 year old father last year. I grew up in the medical industry with dr's and pharmacist and I know how they generally work. But that's neither here or there. Thanks again for stating you EXPERIENCE over just an uneducated opinion.
As for the vet, you would prob be surprised bc some of the best in the industry, including a couple nfr gals, use this clinic and vet often. I have also come to find out that Scamper received a ozone treatment before every run. That wasn't out of Charmaynes mouth, but from a friend that hauled with her. Take it as you wish.

Explain to us exactly what that "ozone treatment" consisted of. Tell us what is administered and how.
I hope a lot of people take note, because this thread is very educational and it illustrates a lot of key maneuvers the quacks will pull on order to sway people. First, they bring up their product in a forum. Often times, with a little probing, it can be shown that they actually profit somehow from the promotion (ie: follow the money)
You challenge their premise.....they tell people to do their "research" even though they wouldn't know real research if they saw it. They scurry about for a "reference" that purports to be loaded with "scientific evidence", but with a little effort you can easily refute that as well. Then they attack western medicine and use a tool that cannot be refuted: the anecdote.
The anecdote comes in various forms, such as a friend or relative who died as a result of the failure of western medicine, or a rumor that many successful people owe their success to the quackery. The more I see these things, the more I am inclined to write a book someday!
Anyway, please answer two questions:
Do you profit in any way from the sale of ozone therapy?
How did Charmayne treat Scamper with ozone? Was it inhaled? Was it injected into an oriface? A vein?

          Location: Bastrop, Texas | I have been working on a cure/remedy of my own, actually. I am almost ready to market it and promote it. It is all holistic and natural. All you need is one treatment and I guarantee it will cure 99% of people with the following:
Colds
bronchitis
Sinusitis
It will come with a money back guarantee to boot! Seriously! |

| I expected that exact response. If I knew what exactly ozone therapy consisted of, I wouldn't have created a post asking for people with experience to share their stories, good or bad. The ones that have done it both have good things to say. The only ones calling it quackery or saying it's this or it's that, are the ones who have no experience with it. It may be quackery for all I know, I am very qualified in knowing how to do research and developing my own opinion on what I believe it will or won't do, but regardless of the research I do, I still have no personal experience with it.
Anectdote, really? Ask around doctor..... how many people are searching from dr to dr to diagnose the problem no one can figure out. Everyone is sick or "just doesn't feel good" or knows several people that feel this way. Yet our doctors just prescribe them something to treat the symptoms instead of finding the problem. Then that drug has a side effect that they need another prescription for and so the cycle begins. You are right though, follow the money. Do you make $ off those scripts you write for those drugs that they really may not need. Absolutely. But if you fix the problem, they won't come back because they will be well, so let's keep them coming back. Follow the money. Cancer and chemo, huge money maker! Does it help some people, absolutely. Are there other options, absolutely.
So to answer your questions, I absolutely have no ties or reimbursement of any kind from ozone therapy. If I did, I'd tell you where to go to get it for those wanting it. I wanted to know the price range others had paid to see where it falls and if I'm willing to try it because there is no proof that it will work. But for the right $ I'm willing to try especially if the results from people that have used it were successful.
I do agree there is a ton of quackery out there and everyone is looking for a quick fix. But it's up to the individual to distinguish between quackery or legit and someone that has no experience with it can't make a accurate decision in my opinion.
Secondly, she veined it from what I was told.

          Location: Bastrop, Texas | What do you mean she "veined" it? How does one go about injecting ozone into one's veins? Is this ozone in liquid form? Can you take it orally?
Is it injected into the veins as a gas? |

| Again, I don't know. I wasn't there, nor do I know exactly how it works. This is the best info if have found that is short enough to post that is still detain in explaining the oxygen atoms and how to administer it.
Ozone and other oxygen therapies have been used for over 100 years around the world for human and animal healing. These therapies continue to gain popularity, as scientists learn about the health benefits of increased oxygen in the body. Currently, ozone therapy and hyperbaric treatments, which bring easily soluble oxygen to target tissues, are being proven effective for treating viruses, fungi and bacteria, and for general health improvement anytime there is inflammation and damaged tissue. In addition to medical uses, ozone is a great disinfectant used for livestock water tanks, cattle embryo transfer(tt), swimming pools, spas and the water treatment systems of over 2,000 municipalities around the world.
How it works
Ozone contains three oxygen atoms, which react in the tissue as it breaks down to ordinary oxygen (O2) and a reactive singlet oxygen molecule that can combine with chemicals and other molecules. Free from side effects, this is an extremely safe therapy that works in a number of ways by:
1. Decreasing inflammation. When you have inflammation, swelling, bruising, infection, cancer and trauma to the tissue, there are higher amounts of carbon dioxide within the tissue. This increase of carbon dioxide contributes to inflammation and pain. Increasing the amount of oxygen delivered to the tissue in the form of reactive ozone decreases inflammation, pain and swelling, and helps increase healing.
2. Activating the immune system. Ozone therapy has also been shown to activate the immune system by stimulating cytokine production. Cytokines are “messenger cells”, such as interferons and interleukins, which “set off a cascade reaction of positive changes throughout the immune system.”(t). Ozone also promotes the production of glutathione peroxidase, catalase, reductase and super-oxide dismutase, the enzymes forming the cell wall coating; thereby enhancing cellular immunity. 3. Inactivating bacteria, viruses, fungi, yeast and protozoa. Healthy cells are surrounded by an enzyme coating, which ozone does not penetrate, but bacteria and viruses have no such coatings. Ozone therapy disrupts the integrity of the bacterial cell envelope through oxidation of the phospholipids and lipoproteins (peroxidation). In viruses, this peroxidation disrupts the reproductive cycle and damages the viral capsid. In fungi, ozone inhibits cell growth. Consider chronic otitis, which often has multiple organisms as primary or secondary invaders; this explains the efficacy of ozone treatment.
Administration options
Since ozone helps with the healing of any problem, it can be added to any treatment protocol.
1. Percolate into saline fluids to be used as a flush (decreases inflammation and pain) to wounds, bladder, rectum, ear, nose, mouth; enema; IV or SQ fluids to be absorbed through the capillaries of the subcutaneous tissue.
2. Percolate through olive oil with or without essential oils for the skin.
3. As a gas via a catheter, internally, or by sealing a wounded area in a bag (old fluid bags work well). It will be absorbed through the caudal rectal vein.
4. Injected as a gas into joints with a prolotherapy injection (prolozone). Human study1 showed efficacy in pain relief for many conditions.
An added technique using ozone is Biophotonic Blood Therapy (BBT), in which blood is infused with ozone, exposed to ultraviolet light in a crystal cuvette, and then given back to the patient. Also called Ultraviolet Blood Irradiation, it has been used worldwide for over 50 years for an array of medical conditions. It may be more effective than mere ozone for stimulating cytokines and activating the mitochondria in each cell to strengthen an animal’s immune system.
Ozone preparation
Oxygen as a single molecule is highly unstable and exists for only microseconds in nature. However, when two oxygen atoms unite to share electrons, they form an oxygen molecule, referred to as O2. This molecule is very stable, and comprises the form of oxygen found in the atmosphere. To create ozone, pure surgical oxygen (ordinary air cannot be used as it has 20% nitrogen which would be converted to nitrous oxide and nitric oxide, both highly toxic) is flowed through a glass tube (do not use models with plastic tubing). A low voltage electrical spark is then applied through the outside of the tube. This briefly splits the paired oxygen atoms, most of which reform into pairs within microseconds. A small percentage of the individual oxygen atoms form triplets – ozone (O3). The ozone produced exists in a very active form for about 30 minutes before breaking down (dismutating) into two atoms of oxygen, which are very easily absorbed into the cells, by giving up one atom of singlet oxygen. Ozone will dismutate at a rate of 50% every 45 minutes in glass, and every 30 minutes in plastic. Therefore the ozone cannot be stored and used later.
Uses are many and varied
Any time there are infections or inflammation, tissue damage or abnormal cellular proliferation, ozone can be use to support treatments, conventional or holistic. A few examples are:
1. Skin – wounds, especially degloving ones and deep abrasions; hot spots; pyodermas; allergic dermatitis; abscesses
2. Pain relief
3. Head trauma, spinal cord inflammation–ozone and oxygen go through the blood/brain barrier so it is an excellent way to aid treatment of any neurological issue
4. Chronic and acute Lyme disease
5. Mouth–stomatitis, gingivitis, abscesses; ozone therapy is ADA-approved for dental abscesses
6. Cancer and autoimmune problems
7. Ears – chronic and acute otitis from bacteria or yeast; aural hematomas
8. Eyes – infections and allergic reactions
9. Upper respiratory ailments
10. Potentiates acupuncture, homeopathy and chiropractic treatments as it brings more needed oxygen to the body
11. GI tract – constipation, diarrhea, IBS (decreases inflammation)
12. Equine infectious anemia
Integrating ozone into your veterinary clinic protocols gives you a wonderful opportunity to use something very natural and sustainable that can reduce and possibly prevent the overuse of antibiotics and drugs. Technicians can administer ozone in most of its applications. As a holistic integrative veterinarian, I think it potentiates some of the other natural modalities I use, such as acupuncture, homeopathy, herbs and chiropractic. Antibiotics are also more effective with ozone as an adjunct. It is also a practice builder, since clients are searching for supportive ways to help their pets. With training, pet owners can get an ozone unit and administer it in a variety of ways themselves. Because ozone is antiviral, it should be a must for any animal shelter that deals with a lot of infectious viruses.
A veterinary certification course is now offered by the American Academy of Ozonotherapy AAOT (aaot.us).You can also contact veterinarians using ozone therapy for their own experiences and case reports at the AHVMA (ahvma.org).

Please, as a simple matter of courtesy, if for no other reason, when you cut and paste something, identify your source.
This is a very good thread, and I hope people are educated by it. It all sounds so scientific and all. It is rich in quackery that is cleverly veiled and annointed with fancy pseudonyms. It sounds so impressive and compelling.
Hell, even I was tempted to give it a try. It sounds like it cures everything.
This is a quack's wet dream.
Will ozone cure my baldness? If I give myself a dose of ozone IV, will it boost my immune system? In all seriousness, one thing for sure is if I got a dose of this wonderful natural cure I would never have to worry about being sick again. |

    Location: Midwest | dhdqhllc - 2014-11-19 1:05 PM but i'm quite curious at this point....
how exactly do you give ozone IV????
I'm guessing the blood method... Blood is drawn, exposed to ozone mix, and dropped back in
i don't see how one could IV a gas
unless they are talking about IV peroxide???
You are right- I have no experience with this method, and that is because it sounds potentially dangerous. I asked for an explanation on the first page and was ignored. |

     Location: lone star state | I have to respond with my experience since it has been stated that those against ozone therapy have never used it. I had a very sick 400# steer- pneumonia. A vet gave him iv medical grade ozone gas via iv. Within 10 minutes steer was dead!
A very dear friend had hodgkins cancer. Friend wanted to try holistic therapy instead of traditional chemo. Friend underwent 6 months of ozone treatment which caused the cancer to increase exponentially. Doctors explained that while ozone may increase good cells and cell activity it also increases the bad cells and cell activity.
I currently have a horse being treated for epm. Vet who endorses ozone has repeatedly asked to treat my horse free of charge just to show me that ozone therapy works. The vet treating my horse for epm has instucted me not to treat with ozone since ozone may stimulate the protazoa to increase production as well. |

"Since ozone helps with the healing of any problem, it can be added to any treatment protocol."
So it helps in the healing of any problem. They just throw that out there as a definitive statement, yet they offer no proof....no study....just a blanket statement. |

This is called an "air embolism". I can't imagine any vet doing something like this. I wonder how many other animals he euthanized this way. |

Seriously. I'm not prejudiced about evidence based or anecdotal, I just want it to work. And I've seen some freaky chit work wonders as well as snake oil BS.
I had someone the other day ask for a citation (or it didn't happen) after I said Monsanto had been sued for violating anti-trust laws with glyphosate production and pricing schemes. I knew about it because I signed onto the class action lawsuit, but it was dismissed by a federal judge. Citation my butt--it's a long fall off that high horse.
I struggle with science tho, truly I do, because OTOH you have people saying things like "my brother got hepatitis B after eating GMOs." Say huh? So I don't know if I'm hypocritical or discerning. LOL |

I knew about it because I signed onto the class action lawsuit, but it was dismissed by a federal judge. Citation my butt--it's a long fall off that high horse.
I struggle with science tho, truly I do, because OTOH you have people saying things like "my brother got hepatitis B after eating GMOs." Say huh? So I don't know if I'm hypocritical or discerning. LOL
holy!!!! i don't want to get hepatitis.....damn farmers.... |

Unfortunately you cannot argue with statements like this. There's no real way of proving it one way or another. We all see this regularly. Someone can say, "I know someone who had (this or that) happen...." That's how testimonials get their appeal. This is an important tool for people who promote things that have no scientific basis. We all succumb to things that probably don't have a perfectly scientific basis from time to time. Hopefully those things do not pose a risk to life. I like magnetic blankets for my horses, for example.
But when you promote a remedy that has been soundly refuted time and again, and that remedy has the potential of being deadly to humans or animals, that's another matter. People have gone to jail for their ozone remedies. |

barrelracr131 - 2014-11-19 1:16 PM dhdqhllc - 2014-11-19 1:05 PM but i'm quite curious at this point....
how exactly do you give ozone IV???? I'm guessing the blood method... Blood is drawn, exposed to ozone mix, and dropped back in
i don't see how one could IV a gas
unless they are talking about IV peroxide???
You are right- I have no experience with this method, and that is because it sounds potentially dangerous. I asked for an explanation on the first page and was ignored.
i don't want an opinion from a damn scientist that doesn't know shit!!!!!!!!!
My friend is a genius Scientist! So, sit on it Potsie! |

That's the same magazine in the other post. The other one was weird though. It was flash based I think. |

It love Jesus, but it saddens me to report that "Healthy Christian Living" is not a highly regarded, peer reviewed medical/scientific journal.
Another thing - just because some article says it has "scientific references" doesn't mean they are real references, or references from reputable publications.
As far as I know, Ozone has no legitimate place in the treatment of any illness or condition in humans or animals. In theory one can see where it might be attractive, just like "blood letting" for infections was attractive to practitioners in the 15th century, but there is no good evidence that it works for anything. There has been some debate over whether ozone might be beneficial with vertebral disc disease, but even that is hotly debated, as the evidence supporting it's use is weak, at best.
Bottom line: follow the money. If you can't do that, then just listen for quacking.
Phlebotomy is quack medicine?
As far as oxygen goes... There are several different methods of handling the containers they come in like medical bottles compared to oxyacetylene bottles... and different types like oxygen used by aviators is dryer than others.

| I am in the process of working on my website, it’s still under construction, but you are welcome to look at it. (Loads still being worked on.. http://ozonyozone.weebly.com/ ) You are also welcome to request acceptance info on my Ozone 4 the Ponies on Facebook page.
I have done the research and have patented an OZONY BLANKET. A non –invasive Ozone therapy for horses. We have practical working results from the field, in SA and in Namibia.
Many sceptics will fob off ozone. But if you have ever had a horse with tick bit fever (Lyme disease) Biliary (as we call it in South Africa), then all (the sceptics included) will wish they had ozone, in whatever form. Uk research has proven that the 3rd most corrosive gas on earth (Ozone) is the only treatment that ACTUALLY kills the biliary/Lyme virus.
In South Africa we have AFRICAN HORSE SICKNESS(AHS), a KILLER disease, transmitted by No-See-ems. Research it and you will see 1000s of horses die each year in SA due to this. If your horse contracts it he has less than 10% survival rate. It a horror, with no known MODERN MEDICAL CURE. And the vaccine does not offer a 100% cover rate. Yet horses ozoned pull through, you want evidence..960 horses personally treated by me (2008-2014), 3 died, that’s a lot better than 10% statistics for the disease.
Love it or hate it , with or without research ..Ozone works. Why people think research will make something either valid or in valid is beyond me. Please see the work being done on Ebola in Africa. American volunteers are treating Doctors who have contracted the disease….and they have recovered. I would think his is all over your News…but no, why …oh sorry we need research, so let’s all die before the white papers, pear reviews, dissertations, Blind studies are released.
Modern Medicine is amazing …so is OZONE. BUT the BEST and SAFEST of all is an OPEN MIND. We do not need pear reviews to breath air (with oxygen) ..we know it works …maybe we should all hold our breaths ..as ozone is derived from Oxygen …and we all know (without research), that we need Oxygen to live.
How can 3 oxygen molecules (so tiny) scare so many medical/scientific people…. The mind boggles. We should start by asking why medical/scientific people have not researched claims of Ozone’s successes, in fact why has this not been done?
Is it because ozone has (((no money)) generation possibilities, only negative growth from healthier people… maybe because it’s already patented(Just like Ebola and Cannabinoids, patented by the FDA in 2009), is it because its free after you purchase your own generator, no maintenance or consumables to get a revenue stream from ? , because it has cut down on Doctors bills, (my family has not seen a doctor in 3 years, bar my daughter who is 4 months pregnant and going for check-ups) and it will reduce Vet bills (my vet bills in the yard for diseases from R40 000.00 ($ 400.00) per month …..to one bill in 2014 for R900.00 ($9.00) . it has been commented on the tread..follow the money, ……clearly with ozone there is no money to be followed((hence zero interest to do research)).
Yet an Ozone therapist who applies a service to those who do not have access to ozone, are well entitled to charge for their investment and knowledge……..I would like to see which surgeons would not charge on surgery that sows no benefit…that would make the Guinness Book of Records …as a first.
To make issue of a service provider earning a living and smearing it as a money scam…is unfair and people in glass houses should not through stones. Ozone has value, needs experts and therefore charges are due and rightful…..same business case for doctors, surgeons and therapist on any therapy or medical service….Lets no forget how for so many years Homeopathy was VUDU meds…now most doctors are open to many Homeopathy therapeutic solutions
Ozone is approved through the FDA in the states for Dentistry(besides water purification).. please read/research the write ups on this ..It will convince anyone that Ozone has HUGE merit in the medical field. Ozone is used in UK theatres, to sterilise and kill super bugs, and in ambulances as the firs treatment for stroke victims. Hell even the Queens mother used Ozone (and lived to 1003)
No copy past …just hard fact and PURE on the ground experience and exposure with AMAZING ozone.
