Ozone Sauna Therapy

Ozone Sauna Therapy offers a natural multi-functional and multi-beneficial treatment for anyone battling a chronic illness, needing a full-body detox, or someone looking to maintain and increase their vitality.

The total time you are in the Ozone Sauna is 30mins but 1 hour is allocated for every client to allow for changing before and after the sauna.  We want everyone to be relaxed and calm at all times.

Start of a Session:

In the privacy of a changing room, you remove all articles of clothing and wrap yourself in the non-toxic bamboo towel provided. You are then assisted into the Ozone Sauna pod, and onto the seat, which can be adjusted for your height.  The pod doors are then closed to cover your body, while your head remains outside.

A towel is wrapped around your neck to ensure none of the steam escapes. You will then be fitted with a nasal cannula (or special oxygen jet) to provide pure humidified oxygen for you to breathe in during the session – this is to ensure enhanced oxygen saturation in the blood and give you the benefits of EWOT (exercise with oxygen therapy).

During a Session:

During the session, steam, and far infrared rays (FIR) heat up the body with the intention of raising the core body temperature to rapidly induce an artificial fever. All bodily processes are enhanced at higher temperatures, including the production of hormones and enzymes. Keeping the body in a constant regenerative state helps the body to heal, and to stay healthy and energised. The heat also dilates the pores and improves circulation, increased further by the use of carbonic acid. The FIR rays penetrate deeply into the skin and subcutaneous tissue, relieving joint and muscle aches and pains, while promoting the chelation of heavy metals from the body.

Special Electrotherapy programs may be selected to stimulate the muscles, nervous system, and cells through foot electrode pads.  It works with frequency specific micro-currents that focus on the health issues selected for the program and promotes the healing and regeneration of damaged tissues.

Full spectrum-coloured light rays also fill the pod and are absorbed by the skin as they reflect from the steam and the ultra-reflective chamber walls.

The Ozone Sauna uses all colours of the spectrum, from soothing and relaxing to balancing and energising.  Aromatherapy oils are also added to the steam jet.

For the first 3 minutes of the session, CO2 enters the chamber and is converted into Carbonic acid (CA) as it reacts with the steam. The CA and steam irrigate the skin and enter through the pores into the blood stream and lymph system. It also dilates the capillaries and the blood vessels, increasing blood circulation throughout the entire body by up to 25%.  More blood is drawn to the surface of the skin, which enhances the effects of the Ozone therapy. The CA sedates the central nervous system and stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system, relieving tension and stress in the spine and muscles. CA is one of the very few compounds that naturally, and without any side effects, increases the uptake and delivery of oxygen at cellular level.

After the CA cycle is finished, the ozone cycle starts, and continues for the rest of the session.  The ozone reacts with the H2O (steam) to form sterilising H2O2 on the surface of the skin. The H2O2 is absorbed through the dilated pores and enters, into the blood stream and lymph system. One of the main advantages of Ozone Sauna Therapy is that it stimulates the body’s natural antioxidant system, and boosts energy down to cellular level. It also inactivates viruses and eliminates bacterial and yeast/fungal infections. Because of the carbonic acid pre-cycle, the absorption of H2O2 is enhanced up to 2x as much compared to normal Ozone saunas. 

During this stage, you may also elect to use a catheter for vaginal insufflation, or cups for funnels (e.g., breast cupping).

End of a Session:

In order, to prevent excess ozone from being released when the doors open, the built-in ozone destructor starts to remove most of the ozone during the last minute of the session.  Once the session has ended, the nasal cannula and neck towel will be removed, and the chamber doors will be opened. When you are ready to stand up, you will be assisted out of the chamber.

You can have up to 2-3 sessions per week, but each client will be advised according to their requirements and programme.  In some cases, daily sessions might initially be recommended.

For general detox and immune boost, we recommend an initial 10 sessions followed by 2 – 3 sessions per month, to maintain wellness and vitality.

In most cases, Ozone Sauna Therapy is very complementary to conventional medications, often enhancing their efficacy. Ozone Sauna Therapy promotes absorption and bioavailability of nutrients when taking vitamin and mineral supplements. 

We have seen cases of chemotherapy patients experiencing reduced side effects and also enhanced efficacy of treatment.

We do recommend you consult your doctor to discuss Ozone Sauna Therapy in conjunction with oncological treatment.

Ozone therapy is recommended for women planning to conceive, especially if they have vaginal infections preventing conception. It is also safe for breastfeeding women.

It is advised NOT to undergo any Ozone treatment during the first 3 months of pregnancy, as it is during this time that the foetus is most vulnerable.

Ozone therapy is not advised during menstruation, as it dilates the arteries and may increase blood flow, causing leakages during and after the treatment.

While Ozone Sauna Therapy is generally very safe, it is contraindicated during fevers, menstruation, blood flow issues such as active bleeding, recent heart attack, first trimester of pregnancy, excessively low blood pressure, Graves’ disease, G6PD deficiency (Favism), organ transplant patients taking immune suppression medications, cutaneous porphyria, vitiligo, and during the use of alcohol or drugs.

It is very important to drink plenty of water before and after an Ozone Sauna Therapy session, as well as throughout the rest of the day and the days that follow. Drinking water helps your body to flush out toxins.

It is important to note that detoxifying the body too fast, especially if there are many toxins present, can overload the body’s avenues of elimination. These include the kidneys, liver, colon, lymph system, skin, and lungs. When these organs are impaired, then even mild detoxification methods can overload the remaining elimination organs. Overloading these systems can result in a detox reaction or “cleaning crisis.”

You may experience anything from flu-like symptoms to a skin rash. It is the body’s way of trying to get rid of the toxins. While ultimately a detox reaction is a sign of a good thing, it can still be an unpleasant experience. It is much easier to get through when you support your body’s normal elimination systems.

When these organs are working well, and there is sufficient water and nutrient intake, then most detox reactions pass quickly, and sometimes even go unnoticed!

Therefore, it is very important to drink plenty of water and take supplements, to help support the liver, kidneys, colon, and other elimination systems. Be sure to do this if you find yourself experiencing a detox reaction.

We include a liposomal vitamin C and glutathione sachet with each of our Ozone Sauna Therapy treatments to support the detoxification pathways.

Our ethos is to promote and support detoxification, so we don’t want to put toxins back in with harsh chemical cleaning products. As it happens Ozone is highly anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-viral, so it is literally self-cleaning, but we also for added hygiene use hydrogen peroxide a natural anti-bacterial cleaner.

We only use pure distilled water for the steam sauna, this ensures our water is free of pollutants, and also absorbs the Ozone for maximum benefit.

We provide you with a non-toxic hypo-allergenic towel made from natural bamboo fibres.

Toxins are any substances that are poisonous and harmful to our health, when in sufficient quantities. They can be absorbed, inhaled, ingested, or made as by-products of our metabolic processes. A toxin is anything that is noxious or interrupts the normal biological functioning of an organism.

We can split toxins into three categories:

1. Chemical toxins from outside the body:Chemical substances which are released in the environment, such as pesticides, herbicides, household cleaners, clothing dyes, perfumes and water pollutants can damage the human body. This list is endless and growing with the release of new chemicals. Smoking, alcohol, and drugs are also toxins and can cause damage.
2. Bacteria, viruses, and fungi: From outside and inside the body these micro-organisms can discharge a toxin causing harm to our bodies, by attacking our cell membranes or causing havoc inside our cells.
3. Toxins made in the body from our biological processes: Our emotions, stress and the waste product carbon dioxide created from normal metabolic reactions in the body can disrupt our immune systems and cause damage.

Toxicology is the study of the adverse actions of chemicals on biological systems – such as plants or humans.

The Exposome is the cumulative impact of our exposures, which is hard to measure. To understand this, we need to think of it like making a soup. If you take raw ingredients such as onions, celery, chicken, and potatoes, we all know what they will taste like on their own, but we can’t know what they will taste like together until the soup is made. Then what if you give the same ingredients and the same recipe to a group of 10 people?  You’ll get 10 bowls of soup that will taste slightly different. How about you doubled up the onions, or added more salt or pepper, the end results would be different again.

If we take this analogy and apply it the human body, we can view our bodies the bloodstream and lymph – like a type of soup composed of various ingredients including those from our exposure to pharmaceuticals, preservatives, heavy metals, anti-bacterials, organophosphates, plastics, etc.  The challenge is understanding what this biological soup will be like and what effect it will have on the cells of our bodies.
