Ozone Sauna Therapy?
Posted by Estela Cockrell Feb 10th 2020
What if you could boost your immune system, ease pain and stress, and feel more energized with a relaxing 30-minute treatment? Unthinkable in this day and age! But, it’s HERE and now at Switch2Pure. “I must say one of the things that helped my immune system to relieve stress, aches and pains due to my autoimmune, was optimizing my body and immune through ozone,” Estela, founder of Switch2Pure shared. “After realizing the multitude of benefits of ozone therapy, I knew I had to share this with others! This along with meditation, nutraceuticals, clean beauty and a more balanced lifestyle changed my life for the better!”
What it does:
Ozone is one of the most effective body detoxifiers. Why? Steam and heat activate the body's circulatory system. And, by combining steam with ozone/O3, you can enjoy the ultimate oxygenation of the body. Oxygen is O2, made of two oxygen atoms. Ozone is O3, made of three oxygen atoms (also referred to as “activated oxygen”). Ozone or O3 is known to attach to pathogens, viruses and bacteria to inactivate them. Hello, DETOX!
How it works:
You take a seat in a cabinet while your head is outside. As the steam cabinet is producing steam, ozone gas from the ozone generator is pumped into the cabinet, thereby creating a synergistic effect. The humidity and heat from the sauna induce a good deal of sweating, which of course opens up the pores. Induced sweating has been known to help the body detoxify for centuries, but the addition of ozone or O3 absorption aids this through its powerful antimicrobial, antiviral actions. Essentially waking up the immune system. O3/activated oxygen allows more oxygen to reach blood cells and tissues….increasing cellular energy.
Ozone is particularly effective because of its solubility in water. Ozone is known to be many times more soluble in water (20 times more) than plain oxygen, so in an environment like a steam sauna it is easy to see how much more ozone could be absorbed when the body is likely covered in water. Some people choose hyperbaric chambers to push oxygen into the body. But, with ozone, O3 is more soluble and thus absorbable without forced pressure (plus your head remains free). Ozone helps the body with ATP production (generate energy), recovery time (post workout or immune issues), helps modulate immune system, and control inflammation. I mean, really?! It’s that good!
Traditionally used for the following issues:
Lyme Disease, autoimmune, chronic fatigue and can help supercharge the immune system, with swelling, general weight issues, and energy.
Regular ozone sauna treatments can aid in the feeling of:
- Helps prevent allergies
- Fights infection, bacteria and viruses
- Reduces oxidation levels (over oxidation)
- Helps performance (general energy)
- Improves circulation
- Cell energizer
- Skin purifier
- Aids the feelings of depression, energy and focus
- Great for recovery for athletes (so effective it violates “manipulation of blood rules” for athletes)
For therapeutic level detox this treatment frequency is best:
- 2 times per week for 2 weeks
- Then, once a week for 2 weeks
- Then, every other week twice
- Then, monthly and especially before big weekends or when you need extra ATP energy
Suggested Attire:
It is recommended to get fully undressed while you are in the Ozone Sauna so that the Ozone can really penetrate into your skin.
After Care:
Rest. Hydrate with alkaline filtered water, shower or bathe and dry brush to help continue your detoxification. Replenish vitamins and minerals. May consider a massage or other lymphatic massage to continue detoxification (Gua Sha massage).
Special Notes:
*Ozone in the environment is created by the sun and not necessarily bad (it is just what we use to measure pollution. Therapeutic grade ozone is safe and effective especially in the regulated amounts being pushed through the skin.
*Always consult your physician before doing any new treatments, protocols, or programs. Get permission from your doctor before you use the sauna if you are taking medications, under 12 years old, elderly, cardiovascular conditions, chronic conditions.
