    Ozone Therapy in Parkhurst

    Oxygen Therapy – What’s new in O2?

    Oxygen gives life and energy to every single living cell in our bodies.

    It is the most important element in the prevention of disease and is absolutely essential for optimal cell function.

    Humans need oxygen from the moment they are born. Oxygen gives life and energy to every single living cell in our bodies. Our bodies use oxygen to create energy which in turn allows us to think and act. It is the most important element in the prevention of disease and is absolutely essential for optimal cell function.

    Our body needs oxygen to: create energy, digest food, clean out toxins from the body, metabolise fat, metabolise carbohydrates, regulate pH, manufacture hormones, proteins, aid lymph flow, produce collagen and elastin, fight off bacteria and viruses and much more.

    Clinical studies show that 90% of the body’s nutritional need is for oxygen. We can go for as long as 40 days without food, four days without water, but we can’t last three minutes without oxygen.

    As we grow older, the oxygen content in our bodies begins to decline and continues to do so until death. Hypoxia or “skin deprived of sufficient oxygen” is a condition that causes thinner, more sluggish skin that is prone to fine lines and wrinkles. The production of collagen and elastin slows down and the skin is not able to function properly.

    “Cancer has only one prime cause. It is the replacement of normal oxygen respiration of the body’s cells by an anaerobic (ie. oxygen-deficient) cell respiration,” says Dr Otto Warburg, Nobel prize winner for cancer research.

    In the early days we could get enough oxygen. However, due to combustion, deforestation and man-made processes, oxygen levels in our standard air are now less than 21% and even way less than that if you live in a city environment.

    Look at it this way, if you were to put yourself and a group of people in an airtight small room with no ventilation of fresh air, how long would it take for you to get tired /weak / fatigued or depressed? Are you getting enough oxygen?

    Scientists have found that topical oxygen treatments could enhance skin health at cellular level and help cells behave in a more youthful, energetic way!

    Many people, aware that free radicals have been linked with the aging process and many health problems, are concerned that taking in more oxygen will result in production of even more oxygen free radicals. A study for the US Army’s Environmental medicine research studying oxidative stress and the need for antioxidants at high altitudes determined that less oxygen to the body increases the production of free radicals as well as our need for a greater supply of antioxidants to neutralize the free radicals.

    When adequate amounts of oxygen is not available for the production of energy to carry on life functions, the cells revert to a different process of energy production that does not require oxygen and one that results in greater free radical production.

     There are various ways to administer oxygen ranging from inhalation, spray, oxygen injections, masks and Ozone Therapy. Treatments range from five to 30 minutes and can be incorporated into treatments weekly or monthly.
