Ozone Therapy

Ozone Therapy & Integrated Rehabilitation Dhaka | Complementary Pain Management - AdvanCell

For individuals suffering from chronic pain, degenerative joint conditions, or injuries that resist conventional treatments, the prospect of true tissue repair and regeneration offers immense hope. Stem Cell Therapy, a cutting-edge approach in Regenerative Medicine, aims to harness the body's innate healing capabilities to repair damaged tissues, reduce inflammation, and restore function.

What is Ozone Therapy? A Complementary Approach to Healing

Ozone Therapy involves the therapeutic use of medical-grade ozone (O3), a highly reactive form of oxygen. Administered by trained professionals, ozone therapy is considered a complementary or alternative medical treatment that is believed to promote healing, reduce inflammation, and modulate the immune system.

How it is Believed to Work (Proposed Mechanisms): While research is ongoing and its mechanisms are still being fully elucidated, ozone therapy is proposed to work through several pathways:

• Improved Oxygen Utilization: Enhancing the body's ability to use oxygen at the cellular level.

• Modulation of the Immune System: Influencing the immune response, often leading to anti-inflammatory effects and potentially aiding in immune regulation.

• Antioxidant Pathway Activation: Stimulating the body's natural antioxidant defense systems, which can combat oxidative stress.

• Antimicrobial Properties: Exhibiting effects against certain bacteria, viruses, and fungi.

• Improved Circulation: Potentially enhancing blood flow to tissues.

Common Administration Methods (Relevant to Musculoskeletal Health): Ozone can be administered in various ways, depending on the condition being treated. For musculoskeletal issues, common methods may include:

• Direct Injection: Into joints (e.g., knee, shoulder), soft tissues, or around the spine to target localized inflammation and pain.

• Autohemotherapy: A small amount of your blood is drawn, mixed with ozone, and then re-infused into your bloodstream.

• Rectal Insufflation: Ozone gas is administered rectally for systemic effects.

Important Note: Ozone therapy is often considered a complementary or alternative therapy. While many patients report benefits and research is continually exploring its potential, it's essential to understand that it is not universally accepted in mainstream medicine for all its claimed applications.

• Seeking complementary therapies to reduce inflammation and alleviate pain, particularly if traditional treatments have provided limited relief.

• Looking for non-surgical options to manage certain degenerative conditions or chronic injuries.

• Aiming to enhance natural tissue healing and improve local circulation.

• Interested in a holistic approach that integrates advanced complementary treatments with evidence-based physiotherapy.

• You have consulted with a qualified medical doctor who has assessed your suitability for Ozone Therapy and ruled out any contraindications.

How We Help: Our Integrated Programs Including Ozone Therapy & Rehabilitation

Our approach to your well-being combines thorough assessment, precise application of Ozone Therapy (if deemed suitable and administered by our team), and a comprehensive physiotherapy plan:

1. Comprehensive Assessment & Medical Clearance:

• Detailed Medical History & Physical Examination: We will conduct a thorough assessment of your condition, pain patterns, functional limitations, and review your medical history.

• Medical Consultation Confirmation: We require that you have discussed Ozone Therapy with your primary medical doctor or specialist to ensure it is appropriate for your specific health condition and does not conflict with existing medical treatments or conditions. We will assess for any contraindications to ozone therapy.

• Goal Setting: Collaborating with you to establish realistic and meaningful treatment goals.

2. Ozone Therapy Administration (as part of your integrated plan):

• If Ozone Therapy is determined to be a suitable adjunctive treatment for you, it will be administered by our trained healthcare professionals, adhering to strict safety protocols and precise dosing.

3. Integrated Physiotherapy Program: This forms the core of your rehabilitation and is crucial for maximizing the benefits of ozone therapy:

• Targeted Pain Management: Utilizing modalities like Laser Therapy (LLLT/PBMT), TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation), and Heat/Cold Therapy to directly alleviate pain and inflammation.

• Manual Therapy: Gentle joint mobilizations to restore optimal joint mechanics, and soft tissue techniques (e.g., massage, myofascial release) to reduce muscle tension and spasm around the affected area.

• Therapeutic Exercise Progression: A customized program focusing on:

• Strengthening: Building strength in weakened muscles to support joints and improve stability.

• Mobility & Flexibility: Restoring and maintaining full range of motion in affected joints and surrounding tissues.

• Functional Training: Re-training daily activities and specific movements relevant to your life and goals (e.g., walking, climbing stairs, reaching).

• Proprioception & Balance: Improving your body's awareness and stability.

• Patient Education & Self-Management: Empowering you with knowledge about your condition, the role of ozone and physiotherapy, activity modification strategies, and a home exercise program for long-term maintenance.

4. Continuous Monitoring & Adjustment:

• We continuously monitor your progress, assessing your pain levels, functional improvements, and how you are responding to both the ozone therapy (if administered) and the physiotherapy interventions. Your treatment plan will be adjusted as needed to ensure optimal outcomes.

Benefits of Integrating Ozone Therapy with Physiotherapy at AdvanCell:

• Potential for Enhanced Pain Reduction: Ozone therapy, when combined with physiotherapy, may offer synergistic effects in reducing pain, particularly in chronic inflammatory and degenerative conditions.

• Potential for Reduced Inflammation: By influencing the body's immune and antioxidant responses.

• Potential to Optimize Tissue Healing: Creating a more favorable environment for your body's natural repair processes.

• Improved Functional Outcomes: Addressing both the biological and biomechanical aspects of your condition leads to more comprehensive and lasting relief.

They can assess if this therapy is appropriate for your specific condition and rule out any contraindications (e.g., pregnancy, certain blood disorders, hyperthyroidism, recent stroke/heart attack).

• Evidence Base: While many patients report positive results, and research continues, it is important to understand that the scientific evidence for all applications of Ozone Therapy is still developing, and it is often considered a complementary therapy rather than a primary mainstream medical treatment.

• Administered by Qualified Professionals: Ozone Therapy should only be administered by trained and experienced healthcare professionals who adhere to strict medical guidelines and safety protocols.
