Not to mention the importance of oxygen, especially for humans. "Oxygen", the most basic need of life, also plays a major role in the treatment of diseases. Oxygen is known as 02, Ozone is the high energy state of oxygen known as 03. Ozone is a gas obtained from 99% oxygen.

Ozone has very strong oxidizing properties. Thanks to this feature, it removes toxins from the body and destroys harmful microorganisms.

Ozone therapy is used in the treatment of many diseases such as herniated disc, healing of wounds, rheumatic diseases.

It also prevents cartilage and fluid loss seen in calcification.

Lumbar disc herniation is the main source of pain in the lower back and leg area.  Herniated discs, which have been seen in almost all ages in recent years, affect daily life considerably. So, what is a herniated disc?

The lumbar part of the human spine consists of 5 vertebrae and discs.  The lumbar region plays an important role in carrying the weight of the body. The task of the vertebrae in the spine is to surround and protect the spinal cord, with cartilage between them. 

Lumbar disc herniation is the compression of the nerves coming out of the spinal cord when the cartilage between the vertebrae is displaced, slipped or torn due to strain.  Sometimes a hernia occurs as a result of damage and weakening of the ring in the outer part of the disc. There are causes such as lifting heavy loads, accidents, old age, overweight, staying stationary for a long time, lifting loads from the floor in the wrong position, excessive birth, and falling.

Today, the treatment of herniated discs is possible thanks to advancing technology. Although surgery was common in the treatment of herniated discs in the past, surgery is preferred today.

One of the treatment methods that gives very successful results in the treatment of herniated disc is ozone therapy.

Ozone therapy, which we have heard frequently on television and social media in recent days, is used in many diseases faced by human health. Weight loss, rejuvenation, cancer treatment are a few of them. However, the biggest effect of ozone therapy is that it is a painkiller and cell regenerator. Thanks to these features, it is very effective in the treatment of herniated discs.

Pain and inflammation (inflammation; inflammation, inflammation) caused by herniated disc and cervical hernia are removed and treated with ozone.

The main function of the discs between the vertebrae is to surround the vertebrae and protect them against damage. If the discs between the vertebrae are damaged for any reason, a hernia occurs. The jelly-like part of the disc slides and presses on the nerve tissue. As a result of this damage, swelling and water retention occur in the disc.

The herniated disc causes severe pain in the lower back and leg. 

In ozone therapy, ozone is given into the disc. In this way, the disc, which causes herniation by retaining water and swelling as a result of damage, is repaired. Free oxygen radicals are prevented, the mechanical swelling of the disc decreases and shrinks. Thus, the pain caused by a herniated disc is eliminated.

In addition, ozone therapy sends blood cells to the area via blood vessels and provides active oxygen supply. This prevents the inflammation caused by the herniated disc and the damaged tissue is treated quickly.
