Health Questionnaire Explanations
1. SKIN
Ozone replaces damaged cells with healthy, oxygen-enriched cells. It minimises scarring and reduces existing scar tissue. Allergic skin reactions are controlled as Ozone desensitises the skin (makes the skin less sensitive) thereby controlling and repairing damage caused by Eczema, Acne and Psoriasis as well as body rash and Herpes. Candida and thrush are successfully treated, as are most fungal and bacterial conditions due to Ozone being an extremely effective fungicide and bactericide. Ozone is bi-active as it works on the skin from the outside as well as from within. During the natural Detox process, which Ozone brings about, the blood and skin are cleared of sludge and impurities. As Ozone is a skin conditioner the result is a healthy, flexible skin.
Multiple factors contribute to this condition, oily skin, hormonal changes in women during their menstrual cycle, or keratin (a protein produced by skin cells) blocking the oil ducts (small canals) within hair follicles (small sacs), and bacteria that inhabit these follicles, all play a role.
Hydro-heat softens the skin and opens the pores allowing easier intake of O3 by the skin. Pus is broken up and cleared by the extra oxygen due to better blood circulation, while bad bacteria is killed off by the O3.
Temporary discolouration or eruption of the skin occurs. Usually caused by an allergy, but may also be a sign of an underlying disease.
Hydro-heat increases blood circulation. O3 kills off anaerobic microorganisms, which may cause an allergy, improves blood circulation and combats the cause of underlying disease.
- Eczema (Atopical Dermatitis)
Allergic skin inflammation due to an autoimmune disease (an internal disorder where the body’s immune system attacks its own tissues and cells). Characterised by red, itchy, sometimes weepy patches of skin. Scratching worsens the condition. House-dust mites (an airborne allergen that causes allergies) are the most common culprit that aggravates eczema. Microorganisms such as bacterial and yeast also play a part here.
Hydro-heat improves blood circulation. Ozone nourishes the skin, fights inflammation, kills dust mites and combats allergies. Use warm water (not hot) to bathe in. Use a very mild soap. Bathe maximum once per day, no longer than 15 minutes at a time. Instead of rubbing, pat yourself dry with a towel, or even better blow-dry yourself.
A chronic skin condition as a result of an autoimmune disease (An internal disorder where the body’s immune system attacks its own tissues and cells). Typical lesion (damaged or abnormal area of tissue) is oval, covering a slightly raised area of the skin, which is covered with dry, silvery scales.
Hydro-heat softens the skin, improves blood circulation, opens the pores allowing easier intake of Ozone, which detoxifies and nourishes the skin.
A mark left by a healed wound, burn or incision. It is composed of tough fibrous tissue.
Hydro-heat softens the skin and opens the pores allowing easier intake of Ozone. Ozone not only detoxifies the skin, but also minimizes scarring and heals old scar tissue much quicker than normal.
· Candida/Thrush
Candida is a genus (group) of yeast-like fungus. Found in vagina, mouth and skin. Thrush is an infection of the mouth tissues.
Ozone with its anti-fungal properties is ideal in killing off any fungi.
A tender, or painful, lesion or ulcer on the skin. Also found in the mouth and throat. Sores can become infected.
Hydro-heat improves blood circulation. Ozone is very effective in cleaning and sterilising sores and wounds, aids in the healing thereof, minimises scarring, improves blood circulation.
Caused by the human Papillomavirus.
Hydro-heat softens the wart. Ozone has been effectively used in treating warts by destroying the virus, minimises scarring, and improves blood circulation.
2. MUSCULO-SKELETAL SYSTEM (Muscles/Skeleton)
Ozone has an anti-inflammatory action and reduces swelling. It also removes damaged cartilage (the soft spongy material which holds our joints together) and acts as a shock absorber between our bones. It replaces damaged cells with healthy cells; thereby making the recovery from injury caused by Arthritis, Gout and conditions such as Carpel Tunnel Syndrome a speedy and surgery-free process. Lactic acid build-up (which causes cramps) is broken down by Ozone providing relief from cramps, muscular aches and stiffness. Extra Oxygen (plus the increase in circulation from the Hydro-heat Therapy) will enhance the body’s ability to absorb and use vitamins and mineral supplements. Degeneration (damage caused over a lengthy time) of vertebrae and disks are a major factor in Chronic Backache and Spasm. Ozone heals damaged cells and prevents further degeneration and alleviates pain. Deformities will be noticeably improved as Ozone breaks down the build up of gristle (hand lumps of damaged tissue) and debris (bits of bone and growths on them), which accumulate at the site of injury in these conditions.
- Arthritis/Rheumatism/Gout
Inflammation of joints in the body. Most common are osteo-arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disorder (an internal disorder where the body’s immune system attacks it own tissues and cells). Rheumatoid arthritis can be set off by stress (emotional or physical). No known cure for any arthritis.
Gout is a hereditary, metabolic disorder characterised by inflammation, swelling and pain in the affected joints. Cause: Excess of uric acid in the blood and tissues. Crystals of the acid form in the joints.
Hydro-heat eases the pain. Ozone decreases inflammation thereby decreasing any swelling, breaks up uric acid, speeds up recover of damaged tendons, ligaments and bones.
· Chronic Backaches/Pains
Most commonly located in lumbar (lower) spine area and surrounding tissues as a result of injury, strain or stress to a muscle, ligament, bone, or nerve.
Hydro-heat helps in relaxation/relieving the pain, improves blood circulation. Ozone fights inflammation, reduces swelling and pain, and speeds up recovery of damaged tissue, muscle, ligament, bone and nerve.
· Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (repetitive strain injury)
Resulting in compression of the median nerve, which passes between the bones and ligaments of the wrist.
Hydro-heat improves blood circulation, relieves pain while Ozone fights inflammation, reduces swelling and pain, and speeds up recovery of damaged tissue, nerve and bone.
· Osteoporosis
Bone disorder where both, calcium salts and bone matter, are depleted. Bones weaken, become fragile thus increasing risk of bones breaking.
Hydro-heat helps in relaxation/relieving pain, improves blood circulation. Ozone fights inflammation, reduces pain, enhances calcium intake from foods and supplements, and speeds up recovery of damaged tissue.
· Muscle Aches/Cramps
Result from undue strain, excessive build-up of lactic acid and loss of salt.
Hydro-heat improves blood circulation, relaxes and soothes muscles. Ozone breaks up acid, increases cellular respiration in muscles, speeds up recovery of damaged tissue, and accelerates healthy growth of muscle.
· Fibromyalgia (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome)
Characterised by generalised aching, specific points that “trigger” pain. Accompanied by disturbed sleeping patterns, morning fatigue, and stiffness in the neck, shoulders, and trunk, which is aggravated by movement.
Hydro-heat improves blood circulation, relieves muscle aches and pains. Ozone improves blood circulation, increases oxygen to muscles, reduces inflammation, aids in healthy muscle growth, acts as antioxidant, energises the body and mind, acts as an anti-depressant.
· Sports Injuries
Damaged tissue, ligaments, muscles, and bone etcetera.
Hydro-heat improves blood circulation, soothes muscles aches and pains. Ozone improves blood circulation, increases oxygen to muscles, reduces inflammation, aids in healthy muscle growth, tissue, ligament, and bone growth, speeds up recovery of damaged tissue etcetera.
3. CARDIO-VASCULAR SYSTEM
Ischaemic Heart Disease (Arteriosclerosis) leads to a decreased flow of blood to the periphery (outer extremities). This affects the perfusion (the absorption and delivery of the oxygen) by oxygen-enriched blood to these areas causing ischaemia (an inadequate supply of blood), which in turn might lead to cell death resulting in a stroke, heart attack, gangrene etc.
Allopathic medication (general medicine) attempts to decrease the formation of Arteriosclerosis and increases the diameter of the vessel hoping to increase blood flow. However, this does not always translate into improved Oxygen perfusion of the tissue. Ozone therapy has been proven to initiate the release of anti-inflammatory chemicals, which in turn slows down the rate of Arteriosclerosis. Also, the increased oxygen levels in the blood results in increased oxygen perfusion (the absorption and delivery of the oxygen), which enhances cellular respiration resulting in optimum cell function. This means that there is less ischaemia (lesser volumes of blood now need to be pumped to deliver the necessary Oxygen). This eventually leads to improved function of the heart. Patients with Peripheral Vascular Disease are able to walk further with no discomfort.
· Angina
A pain in the heart resulting from a lack of oxygen to the heart. The causes: Coronary heart disease (Arteriosclerosis – hardening of the arteries) and heart spasm.
Hydro-heat relieves anxiety, improves blood circulation. Ozone delivers much needed oxygen, improves blood circulation, purifies the blood, relieves hypertension (high blood pressure).
· Heart Attack
Takes place when a section of heart muscle dies due to a lack of oxygen.
Hydro-heat relieves anxiety, improves blood circulation.
NO OZONE DURING 1ST 3 MONTHS AFTER A HEART ATTACK!
Thereafter, patient can start off with short ozone sessions and then slowly build up longer sessions over a period of time. Ozone delivers much needed oxygen, improves blood circulation, purifies the blood, relieves hypertension (high blood pressure), corrects low blood pressure, and clears arteries.
· Stroke
Caused by a sudden decrease in blood supply and oxygen to part of the brain. Results from blood clots, cholesterol building up and attaching itself to an artery wall, bursting of a blood vessel (artery), other obstructions occurring in an artery.
Hydro-heat relives anxiety, relaxes muscles and prevents stiffening of muscles if patient is bedridden, improves blood circulation, purifies the blood, relieves hypertension (high blood pressure), corrects low blood pressure, breaks up cholesterol, unclogs arteries, strengthens arterial walls, improves function of undamaged brain areas, combats hardening of arteries.
· Cardiac Arrhythmia (Irregular Heartbeat)
Disturbance of the normal, rhythmic heartbeat causing irregular heartbeat. Causes: Failure of electric impulses within the heart, scarring from previous heart attacks, an adverse drug reaction, a disruption in body chemicals such as calcium, magnesium or potassium, malfunction of the thyroid gland.
Hydro-heat improves blood circulation, relieves anxiety. Ozone speeds up recovery of scar tissue, aids in balancing chemicals within the body, enhances the intake and uptake of important chemicals and supplements by the body, increases oxygen levels in the blood, improves blood circulation.
· High Cholesterol
A fatty substance produced by the body and which makes up an important part of the membranes of each cell in the body. The 3 types of cholesterol are LDL – Low Density Lipoproteins, VLD – Very Low Density Lipoproteins and HDL – High Density Lipoproteins. High levels of LDL- and VLD- type cholesterol has been linked to certain disorders.
Hydro-heat enhances blood circulation. Ozone breaks down bad cholesterol and unclogs arteries.
· High/Low Blood Pressure
120/80 is about a normal blood pressure. Over that is high. The heart has to work too hard in delivering oxygen-poor blood to all parts of the body. This leads to further diseases.
Hydro-heat improves blood circulation. Ozone effectively increases the oxygen-carrying capabilities of the red blood cells, normalises high and low blood pressure, and breaks down cholesterol, aids in strengthening of arterial walls.
· Poor Blood Circulation
Cause of many diseases, illnesses, and disorders, which affect the body. Result: A lack of oxygen throughout the body. A general symptom would be cold hands, feet and other extremities of the body.
Hydro-heat enhances blood circulation, warms up cold extremities of the body. Ozone enhances blood circulation, strengthens the immune system, clears the lungs, assist all organs to function better.
4. ENDOCRINE SYSTEM (the chemical system which controls bodily functions)
The Endocrine system is an extremely complex and intricate system where interdependent hormones depend on each other to exert its beneficial effects. Conditions such as Diabetes, Thyroid disease and utero-ovarian diseases are all debilitating and are often progressive and fatal. Malfunction of one of these hormones creates a cascading effect that can cause a multitude of pathologies (disorders). Improper, or false information is transmitted by the hormones, either in insufficient quantities or by being contaminated by pro-inflammatory agents. In Diabetes the problem lies in its insulin production and quality thereof.
Hypoxia (low oxygen levels) is often associated with this disease causing a whole rage of squeal, (sequence of conditions and disorders) from the head right down to the feet.
Ozone therapy has tremendous anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties. It has been proven to decrease insulin resistance. Increase in oxygen supply to the peripheral vessels minimises the chances of developing gangrene, retards (hampers/slows down) the development of peripheral (see “periphery”) neuropathy, including a beneficial effect on the eyes, heart, kidneys and other organs. Blood sugar control is vastly improved. Ozone therapy also prevents damage to nerves.
· Cellulite/Overweight
Cellulite is pockets of subcutaneous (under the skin) fat.
Weight problems cause excess fat to accumulate in certain areas of the body. Excess weight can lead to a physical disorder, undue fatigue, and anxiety.
Hydro-heat increases blood circulation, softens the skin and opens the pores, allowing easier intake of Ozone by the deposits. Ozone combats fatigue and anxiety and promotes increased blood circulation.
· Diabetes
Diabetes Type 1: A lack of insulin in the body due to malfunction of the pancreas.
Diabetes Type 2: Diabetes Mellitus, also stems from inadequate production of insulin by the pancreas, but in most cases of Type 2 Diabetes, the problem is not just a simple lack of insulin, there is also a defect in the receptors for insulin in the cell walls of muscle tissue and the liver.
Hydro-heat increases blood circulation. Ozone enhances blood circulation, breaks down excess sugar, strengthens the immune system, purifies the blood, clears the lungs, assist all organs to function better, prevents heart disease and strokes, normalises high/low blood pressure.
· Hypothyroidism (Under active Thyroid)
Symptoms include tiredness, weight gain, constipation, and sensitivity to cold. Skin becomes dry and puffy, hair or scalp and eyebrows become brittle. Anaemia (iron deficiency) may develop, numbness and tingling sensation in hands and feet, menstrual disorders in women occur, if untreated the individual’s personality can also change: slowing down of thought processes, mild confusion, dementia (deterioration in intellectual function), and possible paranoia. This condition lasts for a lifetime.
Hydro-heat enhances blood circulation, combats anxiety and depression. Ozone combats anxiety and depression. Ozone enhances blood circulation, increases cellular activity, which in turn helps with the release of energy, enhances the uptake of supplements by the body, fights constipation, and enhances oxygen-carrying capacity of reed blood cells.
· Hormonal Problems (e.g.: Polycystic Ovarian Disease)
Hormones are powerful chemical substances produced by cells in a particular organ. They act on other organs to regulate their activity. Several organs produce hormones. When a hormonal imbalance occurs certain other disorders can occur. Polycystic Ovarian Disease is characterised by the formation of cysts in the ovaries.
Polycystic Ovarian Disease is a congenital (nonhereditary) disease of the ovaries. Although there is no definite known cause, a hormonal imbalance is indicated. Symptoms: Pain during menstrual cycles. If left untreated it can lead to infertility. Surgery and hormone therapy are the normal treatments.
Hydro-heat sooths the nerves, combats anxiety, and depression, enhances blood circulation. Ozone helps with the uptake of supplements into the body, balances activity within the body, reduces pain, and prevents cysts and tumours.
· Headaches (Migraine, Cluster, Tension)
A headache in itself is not a disorder, but only a symptom. Possible causes include conditions associated with emotional disturbances or muscular tension; disorders of the blood vessels (arteries/veins); neuralgia (caused by disorders of the nerves in the head); infections which affects the ears, sinuses, mouth, or membrane surrounding the brain; head injuries; carbon monoxide exposure; conditions that affect the skull; and increased pressure within the brain.
Hydro-heat soothes muscular tension, increases blood circulation. Ozone combats disorders of the blood vessels as well as nerve-related disorders, fights infections, speeds up healing of injuries, and neutralises carbon monoxide poisoning.
5. RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
Respiratory diseases such as Asthma, COPP, Emphysema, and Chronic Bronchitis all affect the body in a debilitation manner. Patients are unable to be active and productive, simply because the oxygen delivery at the cellular level is decreased. Bronchial narrowing and increased mucus production occurs as a result of an inflammatory process. Pro-inflammatory agents (agents which cause swelling) stimulate the hypersensitive airway passages triggering a cascade of events that end in obstruction (blockage) of smooth airflow and oxygen perfusion (the absorption and delivery of the oxygen). Ozone therapy is known to inhibit these pro-inflammatory agents and make the airway passages less sensitive to irritation and swelling, thereby clearing the airway passages which in turn results in less inflammation and obstruction. The oxygen-enriched blood perfuses more easily improving the amount of oxygen supply to the tissues. This has important implications in that the Respiratory Rate is decreased and the patient feels less anxiety, becomes more active and feels more energetic.
· Asthma/Sinusitis
Asthma is a chronic respiratory disorder where an asthmatic experiences difficulty in breathing. Allergic Bronchial Asthma is caused by an allergic reaction. Many pollens, the common house dust mite, and animal hair can cause an attack. So too does infections of the respiratory system, exposure to cold, exercise, fatigue, irritating fumes, and certain emotional and psychological states. During an asthma attach the smooth muscle that encircle the airways of the asthmatic person constricts which effectively narrows the airway passages while at the same time mucus membranes swell and produce excessive mucus.
Sinusitis is an inflammation of the mucus membranes that line the sinuses of the skull (the cavities within the skull bones that open into the nose). It can be caused by rhinitis (a nasal infection). A dental abscess, a fracture of a bone in the face, or sudden pressure changes, can also cause it. Chronic sinusitis may be caused by an allergy.
Hydro-heat combats anxiety in asthmatics. Ozone kills the anaerobic micro-organisms that causes asthma attacks, it delivers extra oxygen to the body, clears up mucus build-ups, it combats fatigue, rids the air of irritating fumes.
· Bronchitis (Chronic and Acute)
In bronchitis the bronchi (the main, branching passageways of the lungs) are inflamed. Acute (sudden) bronchitis is normally a complication of a viral infection such as a cold or the flu. With chronic bronchitis the inflammation is persistent. Air pollution is a big culprit when it comes to chronic bronchitis.
Hydro-heat enhances blood circulation and soothes body and mind. Ozone combats inflammation, kills every known type of virus, rids the air of pollution and increases blood circulation ad oxygen to the body.
· Emphysema
Is the pathological (disease causing) stretching and breakdown of lung tissue due to the accumulation of gas or air in the tissue or organ. Pulmonary (of the lung) emphysema is a chronic lung disease in which the air sacs of the lung degenerate until the elastic fibres in them are destroyed. Due to decreased lung elasticity carbon monoxide accumulates in the lung after each exhalation of breath instead of being expelled from the lungs. Thus, breathing becomes more difficult for the victim of emphysema. Heavily polluted air, smoking, and prolongs exposure to certain types of dust aggravate respiratory disorders which in turn can lead to emphysema.
Hydro-heat enhances blood circulation. Ozone aids in repair of the lungs’ air sacs, delivers more oxygen to the body which in turn turns resident carbon monoxide within the body into carbon dioxide which is easier for the body to get rid of, promotes healthy lung tissue thus keeping the elasticity of the lungs to an optimum, prevents further damage to the lungs, fights other causes of respiratory disorders, and neutralises air pollution.
6. NEUROLOGICAL SYSTEM (NERVOUS SYSTEM)
As the average life span of man increases WE ARE LIKELY O SEE AN INCREASE IN nervous System Disorders. This extended period in the life of man (longevity) means a longer period of time during which our bodies are subjected to physical and emotional stress. Coupled with the deleterious effects of smoking, alcohol, lack of exercise, poor diet etc, we are bound to suffer an increased risk in neuro-degenerative diseases. A neuro-degenerative disease (disorder and breakdown of the nervous system) reflects itself in the form of Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s, Senile Dementia, Wilson’s disease and others. Most of these occur either due to oxygen deprivation, inflammatory processes or chemical deficiencies. Clearly Ozone works due to its anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-oxidant properties. The most important result of Ozone treatment is the marked improvement of oxygen delivery to the neural cells resulting in the enhanced function of cells and protection against early dysfunction. Ozone therapy has been extremely successful in benefiting patients who suffer from a neuro-degenerative disease. In some instances a reversal of the condition can be expected and most certainly an improved lifestyle will be experienced.
· Anxiety
Prolonged and exaggerated anxiety can lead to emotional disorders, stress, depression etc. This adversely affects the immune system, which in turn leads to illness or sickness.
Hydro-heat enhances blood circulation, soothes the mind, and combats anxiety, depression and stress. Ozone also combats anxiety, depression and stress, builds the immune system, fights existing illnesses and sicknesses.
· Stress
Stress can be emotional, psychological, mental, or physical. Stress leads to exhaustion, nervousness, anxiety, interrupted sleep patterns, mood swings, irritability, depression, high blood pressure, a lowered immune system, and much more. All this paves the way for various health related problems.
Hydro-heat enhances blood circulation, relaxes body and mind. Ozone not only relieves anxiety, depression, irritability, mood swings, high blood pressure, exhaustion, nervousness, and strengthens the immune system; it also promotes higher levels of oxygen in the blood, which in turn decreases stress.
· Depression
A mental state characterised by prolonged feelings of despair and/or a pervasive loss of interest or pleasure. Depression is more than just a feeling – it is a profound psychological and physical experience. Sleep disturbances, appetite or weight change, loss of energy, and irritability.
Hydro-heat enhances blood circulation, relaxes the body and soothes the mind. Ozone relieves anxiety, depression, irritability, mood swings, high blood pressure, exhaustion, nervousness, and it energises and strengthens the immune system.
· ADD/ADHD/Poor Concentration
ADD and ADHD are both attention deficit disorders usually affect school-aged children. Characterised by inattention, impulsivity, or hyperactivity. It results in poor school performance and in some cases their specific leaning abilities.
Hydro-heat enhances blood circulation, soothes body and mind, combats hyperactivity, and enables restful sleep. Ozone relieves anxiety, irritability, mood sings, exhaustion, nervousness, clears and aids in focussing the brain, enhances memory resulting in better work performance at school.
· Alzheimer’s/Parkinson’s
Alzheimer’s is a condition affecting the brain and results in rapid and severe deterioration of mental capacities. Nerve cells in the brain show distinct abnormalities. Severe memory loss is one of the results together with the inability to recognise even their loves ones, impaired speech, utter confusion, and difficulty in movement. While doctors do not know what causes it, some research has hinted at excessive accumulation of aluminium in the brain as the cause. Others indicated the presence of an abnormal protein in Alzheimer’s patients not found in other people.
Parkinson’s disease is a chronic disorder of the nervous system characterised by tremors, slow movements, and generalised body rigidity. Although the cause is unknown the signs and symptoms of Parkinson’s are caused by a deficiency of dopamine in the substantia nigra (a layer of pigmented grey substance) of the basal ganglia (masses of grey matter in the cerebral hemisphere) of the brain. Arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) causes degeneration for the brain cells that control body movements
Encephalitis (inflammation of the brain), brain tumours, brain damage or poisoning (either by drugs such as the tranquilliser “reserpine”), from metallic chemical elements (such as manganese), or from poisonous gases (such as carbon monoxide).
Hydro-heat enhances blood circulation. Ozone relieves anxiety, depression, irritability, mood swings, exhaustion, nervousness, improves memory loss, neutralises all kind of poisons in the body, rids the body of carbon monoxide, and strengthens the nervous system, enhances brain activity and the immune system.
· Epilepsy
Is a symptom of brain dysfunction characterised by periodic, recurrent seizures. Seizures range from brief periods of impaired awareness to severe convulsions with loss of consciousness. Certain seizure activity includes headaches, stomachaches, nausea, vomiting, fever, and loss of sphincter control. Seizures are caused by the uncontrolled discharge of electrical energy by the brain cells. In some cases no cause can be found. In other cases an underlying cause can be identified such as severe injury to the brain or central nervous system. More common causes are prenatal (before birth) damage, damage during birth, brain tumours, head injury, metabolic disorders, poisoning, cerebrovascular (of the brain and arteries in the brain) disease, and serious infections during childhood.
Hydro-heat enhances blood circulation, soothes the mind, and relaxes overactive brain activity. Ozone relieves anxiety, irritability, mood swings, exhaustion, nervousness, improves memory loss, neutralises all kinds of poisons in the body, speeds up recovery after injuries, aids in the metabolic rate of the body, strengthens the nervous system/immune system.
· Multiple sclerosis
Disorder of the brain and spinal cord in which a degeneration of the myelin sheath (a tubular structure composed of fat that surrounds nerve fibres) occurs. This degeneration leads to a short-circuiting of nerve impulses. Though the cause may not be known, it may be associated with some kind of altered immunity to a viral infection. Symptoms: Temporary weakness in an arm or leg, tingling, numbness in a limb or one side of the face, double or blurred vision, pain in one eye due to neuritis (inflammation of an eye nerve). Symptoms of later attacks include: involuntary urination, unsteady gait, dizziness, emotional disturbances, and depression. As the disorder progresses other symptoms related to the nervous system crops up. Eventually urinary or lung infections may result in death.
Hydro-heat enhances blood circulation, soothes the mind. Ozone relieves anxiety, irritability accompanied by mood swings, exhaustion, nervousness, kills all viruses, combats infections and fatigue, speeds up recovery after injuries. Aids in the metabolic (the working of all chemical and physical processes that occur within the body – including the repair and replacement of dead or damaged tissues and the production of energy) rate of the body, strengthens the nervous and immune systems, and fights bodily weaknesses and inflammation.
· Memory Loss
May be due to temporary or permanent impairment of the memory function. Frequently occurs as a sign of dementia. May be caused by brain tumours, chronic alcohol abuse, cerebral arteriosclerosis (hardening of arteries in the brain), Alzheimer’s, inability to concentrate due to hyperactivity, irritability, exhaustion, etc.
Hydro-heat enhances blood circulation, soothes body and mind, combats hyperactivity, and enables restful sleep. Ozone relieves anxiety, irritability, mood swings, exhaustion, nervousness, clears and aids in focusing the brain, enhances memory resulting in better work performance at school.
7. IMMUNE SYSTEM
Auto Immune Diseases (diseases not controlled by the immune system). The causes of these diseases are unknown. The pathophysiology (chemical make-up) of these diseases is similar. Different tissues are affected. Infiltration of these tissues by macrophages, neutrophils and cytotoxic T-cells (immune complexes) results in an abnormal release of ROS (chemicals) and pro-inflammatory cytokines (which cause swelling) while the inhibitory cytokines (which prevent swelling are suppressed. Ozone therapy inhibits the pro-inflammatory cytokines resulting in decreased inflammation. This has a significant impact on the tissues causing less destruction. The improved provision of blood rich in oxygen further improves cellular activity resulting in improved general condition.
· Allergies
It’s a condition in which the immune system reacts with unusual sensitivity to a certain substance of substances. These substances are called antigens (toxins produced by a multitude or organisms). They cause the body to produce antibodies, which in their turn weaken or destroy the invading antigens. In most cases when an antibody reacts with an antigen, the organic compound histamine is release from special body cells. An excess of histamine results in allergy symptoms. Symptoms include: a runny nose, watery or itchy eyes, wheezing, lumpy/itchy/reed/ skin, skin rash, inflammation of the skin etc. Emotional factors may also cause an allergic reaction. Prescription drugs may have side effects. Desensitisation with injections is considered by some doctors to be dangerous. Allergic reactions, like anaphylactic shock (heavy shock reaction) can cause death.
Hydro-heat enhances blood circulation, soothes body and mind. Ozone relieves allergic reactions, combats allergy-causing substances.
· Lowered Immune system
Due to a lack of oxygen in the body the immune system is weakened which in turn paves the way for immunodeficiency diseases (diseases which the immune system cannot fight due to its inability to do so). In a healthy defence system the body produces a variety of white blood cells to combat various infections. Immunodeficiency diseases either suppress the production of these cells or attack them directly, thus leaving the body vulnerable to other diseases.
Hydro-heat enhances blood circulation. Ozone strengthens the immune system by delivering much-needed oxygen at the cellular level in the body where its uptake is where the main white blood cells of the body are produced. Ozone stimulates the production of white blood cells, which are vital in the fight against disease. No cell within the body can survive, or even perform its function, in the absence of oxygen.
· Chronic Fatigue/Low energy levels
Any chronic disorder or condition leads to undue stress and a lowered immune system. It can also be a symptom of an underlying disease.
Hydro-heat enhances blood circulation, soothes body and mind, and enables restful sleep. Ozone not only relieves anxiety, irritability, mood swings, exhaustion, nervousness, stress, and strengthens the immune system, but energy levels are increased by it.
· Lupus (DLE and SLE)
DLE (Discoid lupus erythematosus) and SLE (Systemic lupus erythematosus). Both conditions affect the skin. SLE involves other tissue and organs as well. It is seen as an autoimmune disease. Symptoms of DLE: thickened, slightly scaly, red patches on the face, cheeks and forehead. Symptoms of SLE: The same kind of rash as in DLE, but there may also be fever, arthritis, lung problems, and kidney and heart problems. Drug treatments for these conditions have side effects.
Hydro-heat enhances blood circulation. Ozone relives itchiness, irritability, clears and feeds the skin, fights infections and inflammations; it also combats autoimmune diseases by strengthening the immune system.
· Auto-immune Diseases
Any disorder in which the body treats it own tissues and cells as if they are foreign substances and produces antibodies (proteins produces in the blood to fight off micro-organisms that invades the body) and/or lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell) to destroy those tissues or cells. Autoimmunity is known to cause certain types of blood disorders.
Hydro-heat enhances blood circulation. Ozone delivers oxygen-enriched blood to th tissues and cells of the body, it breaks down the defence system of invading micro-organisms, protects healthy tissues and cells against damage, ensure cellular respiration takes place, purifies the blood and the lymphatic system.
8. DIGESTIVE SYSTEM
The digestive system is complex and can cause a whole lot of diseases ranging from mild infections such as mouth ulcers, diarrhoea, colitis and prochitis to potentially fatal conditions such as caner of the tongue, stomach and other intestinal digestive tracts. On numerous occasions during the day foreign agents are being introduced via the mouth. This triggers a cascade of events, which involves digestion, and absorption of nutrients. At the same time foreign matter (consisting of disease-causing elements such as fats, alcohol and food that has not been properly washed and prepared) is allowed to pass through our systems. Ozone and oxygen-enriching processes, prevents diseases caused in this manner. Its anti-bacterial, anti-viral and anti-fungal properties prevent disease while its anti-oxidant properties and approval of healthy cells prevent cancers.
· Acid Stomach/Heartburn
Acid Stomach is a build-up of acid in the stomach, which can lead to ulcers. It is often caused by prolonged stress. Heartburn is caused by acid rising up in the oesophagus (gullet). Most frequently associated with indigestion.
Hydro-heat aids in relieving undue stress, improves blood circulation. Ozone breaks up excessive acids in the body and prevents indigestion.
· Ulcers
An open sore that occurs on the skin or the internal mucus membranes of the body; like the stomach’s lining. Types of ulcers: Mouth ulcers, skin ulcers, stomach and colon, cancerous ulcers, diabetic ulcers, rectum and anus ulcers. There are various symptoms, causes and treatments for all these ulcers.
Hydro-heat increases blood circulation. Ozone not only combats the symptoms, but addresses the causes affectively by neutralising excess acids in the body, ensuring proper delivery of oxygen to all the tissues/cells and organs via oxygen-enriched red blood cells, speeds up the healing processes involved.
· Irritable Bowel Syndrome
A milder form of colitis. Colitis is inflammation of the colon. Irritable bowel syndrome is sometimes referred to as mucus colitis and spastic colon. It is a recurrent intestinal disorder associated with abdominal pain, diarrhoea, constipation, severe bloating, wind, tiredness and mild depression. Although a food allergy may be involved, the syndrome tends to develop due to emotional stress or anxiety.
Hydro-heat releases stress, anxiety and depression, soothes abdominal pains. Ozone kills bad colon bacteria, which may be the cause of constipation and diarrhoea, neutralises excess acids in the body, combats depression/stress/anxiety.
· Constipation
Although not an illness in itself it may be a symptom of an illness or disorder. Causes: Diets poor in vegetable fibre, processed foods, hormonal problems during pregnancy, a marked change in diet, taking painkilling drugs or drugs taken for high blood pressure, rheumatic disorders, depression, colon cancer, or an under active thyroid.
Hydro-heat releases stress, anxiety and depression, soothes abdominal pains. Ozone kills bad colon bacterial which may be the cause of constipation, neutralises the side effects of drugs, kills cancer cells, stimulates and under active thyroid.
· Diarrhoea
This condition can prevent the body from absorbing necessary water and salts into the blood stream. Cholera, dysentery, food poisoning, infection of the middle ear, viral and bacterial infections, chemical poisoning and certain respiratory infections cause acute diarrhoea. Chronic diarrhoea may be a symptom of various serious disorders such as infections of the colon, intestinal cancer, infestation of the intestines by worms, etc.
Hydro-heat releases stress, anxiety and depression, soothes abdominal pains. Ozone kills bad colon bacteria, viruses, neutralises poisons in the body, fights infections, purifies the blood, kills and prevents cancer cell.
· Colon Disorders
A milder form of colitis (inflammation of the colon). Irritable bowel syndrome is sometimes referred to as mucus colitis and spastic colon. It is a recurrent intestinal disorder associated with abdominal pain, diarrhoea, constipation, severe bloating, wind, tiredness, and mild depression. Although a food allergy may be involved, the syndrome tends to develop due to emotional stress or anxiety.
Hydro-heat releases stress, anxiety and depression, soothes abdominal pains. Ozone kills bad colon bacteria, which may be the cause of constipation and diarrhoea, neutralises excess acids in the body, combats depression/stress/anxiety.
9. INFECTIONS
Many microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, parasites etc can cause infections. These infections can range from being mild (which the body successfully defends in a short time), to sever infections which can be fatal. The flu has caused more deaths than all the World Wars put together. As people age the immune system slows down, hence the increased fatalities in the elderly. The HIV virus is fatal if not treated. Ozone therapy has been scientifically proven to be bactericidal, virudical and fungicidal, and has the ability to destroy all parasites. The fact that the cells are better oxygenated means that they function better thus preventing any infections. Frequent use of Ozone therapy prevents the flu and infections.
· Viral (Colds and Flu)
A cold is an upper respiratory infection caused by a virus. It is very contagious. Being a droplet infection it is caused by inhaling airborne water droplet from a sneeze from someone with a cold or by contact with an infected mouth or nose. There are more than 100 symptoms. Early symptoms include a runny nose, watering eyes, headache, and a sore throat. Later there may be a stuffy nose, a slight cough, aching muscles, a chill and slight fever. Although not serious in babies, young children, asthmatics, people with bronchitis, a heart disorder, or kidney disease, are at risk.
Flu is an acute, highly contagious respiratory infection caused by several closely related viruses. Symptoms include: shivering, a chill, headache, weakness and fatigue, aching in the muscles and joints, sore throat, a dry and painful cough, vomiting, sensitivity to light, a fever and sometimes depression. Flue puts the rest of the body at risk, because it lowers the body’s resistance to infections. Of all the secondary infections that may occur as a result of this pneumonia is by far the most serious complication as it is often fatal in elderly people and people with lung and heart diseases or other malignancies. Babies, young children and people with asthma, bronchitis, a heart disorder, or kidney disease should never take aspirin, since it can cause a fatal reaction called Reye’s syndrome. The flu virus has an uncanny ability to change and produce new strains. The new strain is thus not affected or hampered by any previous vaccination. The flu virus is spread in the same way as the cold virus.
Hydro-heat therapy helps against the chill. Ozone kills all viruses known to mankind, relieves fever, headaches and pain and prevents flu.
· Bactericidal (Various/Eye/Skin)
Although the body has within it “good bacteria” which helps the body, bad bacteria can cause diseases. Bacteria are a large group of microscopic, single-celled organisms. The bacteria Streptococcus pneumoniae is associated with pneumonia in humans. Though antibiotics are prescribed against bacteria, it can only be taken for a short period of time as the antibiotics can interfere with the natural defence systems within the body which in turn leaves you with a lowered immune system.
Hydro-heat enhances blood circulation. Ozone kills bacteria.
· Fungal (Athlete’s Foot)
Microscopic fungi or spores may cause fungal infections. Fungi are more resistant to treatment than bacteria. A fungal infection comes in the form of lesions in the mouth, on the tongue and in the lungs, on the skin, in the ears, in the sinuses, and vaginal mucosa, in the gastrointestinal tract, scalps and nails.
Hydro-heat increases blood circulation. Ozone kills off fungi and spores.
· Septicaemia
This occurs in the blood. The sepsis (the presence in the bloodstream of disease-producing micro-organisms) spreads via the blood to other parts of the body where an infection takes place.
Hydro-heat increases blood circulation. Ozone kills the micro-organisms that cause the sepsis.
10. CANCER
Cancer is a frightening diagnosis. It can affect any organ and system of the body. Some of the causality of cancer is known whilst others are being investigated. There are numerous cancer-causing agents to which we are exposed to in our daily lives. Some are internal and some are external.
In the body’s systems themselves there are several chemical agents that trigger a sequence of events that result in cancer, while some are congenital (nonhereditary). Cancer occurs when the cell loses control if its ability to replicate. Certain changes take place at cellular level, which causes the sustained growth of abnormal (unhealthy) cells resulting in cancer. Various methods of therapy ad been done with a fair degree of success, but there are still far too many deaths. Ozone therapy has been proven to have a positive influence by means of:
· Its direct effect on cancer cells in vitro and in vivo.
· Improved oxygenation and metabolism.
· The potential up regulation (enhancement) of the antioxidant enzymatic system with improvement of the cellular potential.
· Its effects on the central nervous system and endocrine system.
The word cancer fills one with fear, as it is one of the most feared diseases known by mankind. It is a disease in which certain body cells multiply without apparent control, destroying healthy tissue and organs and endangering life. It can attack any part of the body, but the parts most often affected are the skin, digestive organs, lungs and female breasts. A frightening aspect is that Leukaemia (cancer of the blood) seems, not only to have increased over the years, but is affecting more and more young people and even children. There are more than 100 identifiable forms of cancer. There are 3 main classifications of cancer: carcinoma, which is cancer of the epithelial tissue that forms on the skin and linings of the internal organs; sarcoma, which is cancer of connective tissue (such as cartilage, muscle, or bone); and fluid cancer (such as leukaemia or lymphoma), which affects the blood stream and the lymph system.
Whatever the type of cancer or wherever it occurs within the body or skin, we know exactly what the root cause of the problem is. Due to the work of Dr Otto Warburg during the 1920’s we know that the “lack of oxygen at the cellular lever of the body” is the cause of all forms of cancer!
Let’s ask two-time Nobel Prize winner Dr Otto Warburg, himself. Here is an excerpt from an article based on a lecture delivered at Stuttgart on May 25, 1955, before the German Central Committee for Cancer Control. It was first published in German [Naturwissenschaften 42,401 (1955)]. Dean Burk, Jehu Hunter and W. H. Everhardy of the U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare, Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD prepared this translation.
“But, even for cancer, there is only one primary cause. Summarised in a few words, the main cause of cancer is the replacement of the respiration of oxygen in normal body cells by a fermentation of sugar.”
Kurt Donsbach (Contemporary Ozone Applications) says the following:
“Cancer begins when a normal cell cannot get enough oxygen. It the level of oxygen available falls below 40%, in order to survive, the cell will begin to ferment sugar instead of burn it. This process is irreversible and results in an energy output only 1/6 as great as oxidation. The cell then lacks the energy to manufacture a proper enzyme coating around itself. The governor or cell replication is switched off and the cell can begin to make copies of itself wildly. This ungoverned cell replication is called cancer.”
Hydro-heat improves blood circulation. Ozone purifies the blood, prevents and kills cancer cells, combats the side effects of chemo and radiation.
11. GENERAL DISORDERS
· Kidney Failure
Function of the kidneys: Filter out water and unwanted substances in the blood. Blood passes through each kidney under high pressure while it is being filtered. During this filtration action any water, glucose and salts still needed by the body is reabsorbed and the waste as urine. When the kidneys fail due to disease and it cannot clean the blood of toxic substances, these poisonous substances produce uraemia (a toxic condition in which waste products of protein digestion, are retained in the blood instead of being passed out of the body by means of the urine), which will lead to death if untreated. The patient has to undergo dialysis (a process whereby blood is purified by an artificial kidney). This is done by means of a dialysis machine (artificial kidney) through which the dirty blood is passed, filtered, and then fed back into the body.
Hydro-heat improves blood circulation. Ozone purifies the blood, which means that the kidneys have less of a workload to cope with.
· Cirrhosis of the Liver
The liver is the largest internal organ in the body, performs more separate functions than any other organ in the body. Cirrhosis is a type of permanent and progressive liver damage. Any chronic liver disease, especially those caused by alcohol and viral hepatitis (a liver infection), can lead to the formation of fibrous scars and nodules. These scars and nodules connect to involve large areas of the liver. Once present, Cirrhosis is permanent, but its progress can be stopped if the cause is removed. Untreated, it can be fatal. Symptoms include weakness, tiredness, and loss of appetite, nausea and vomiting of blood, and constipation or diarrhoea. In an advanced stage the symptoms include jaundice, broken blood vessels, a hard liver, a swollen abdomen and swollen ankles. The scare tissue interferes with the flow of blood through the liver. This raises blood pressure in the veins in the abdomen, which become dilated and congested. This can lead to sever internal bleeding and vomiting of blood can result.
Hydro-heat increases blood circulation. Ozone purifies the blood, aids in the excretion of waste matter, it strengthens the immune system, strengthens bodily weaknesses, combats tiredness and nausea, prevents constipation and diarrhoea. Oxygen-enriched red blood cells, minimises scarring.
· Amputation
Removal of a limb, or other part of the body, by means of surgery. The reason for amputation is either damage or disease. Blood circulation in an amputated limb is compromised due to the loss of muscle tissue and blood vessels.
Hydro-heat increases blood circulation. Ozone purifies the blood, improves blood circulation, aids in the healing process.
