Ozone Blanket vs Medical Grade Ozone Therapy?
🔵 Understanding the differences between Ozone Blanket and Medical Ozone Therapy 🔵
To make an informed decision, firstly know what you are dealing with and make sure you know the difference between toppical and systemic Ozone applications
Over the past three weeks, I’ve been researching the differences and benefits between the Ozone Blanket and Medical Ozone Therapy.
It’s important to understand both ozone blankets and medical ozone therapy have their place, but they serve different purposes.
🔹️Ozone Blanket (Mild, Surface-Level Benefits)
General Wellness & Detox:
Helps eliminate toxins through sweat. Supports mild lymphatic drainage. Can be part of a regular detox routine.
Muscle Relaxation & Recovery:
Good for post-workout soreness. Helps increase circulation to muscles. Can aid in mild pain relief and stiffness.
Surface-Level Skin & Fungal Conditions:
May assist with mild infections, rashes, and irritation. Can support skin healing in minor cases.
Stress Reduction & Comfort:
Provides a warm, sauna-like effect. Helps with relaxation and general well-being.
Not Ideal for: While the Ozone Blanket is great for general wellness, it may not be as effective for more complex health conditions like deep infections or colic.
🔹️Medical Ozone Therapy (Deep, Systemic Healing)
Internal Health & Disease Treatment:
Supports immune function by stimulating white blood cells. Fights infections (bacterial, viral, fungal). Helps with chronic diseases and systemic inflammation.
Severe Wounds, Infections & Healing:
Ozone IV therapy and ozone bagging promote faster wound healing and prevent infections. Effective for hoof conditions (abscesses, thrush, white line disease).
Digestive & Gut Health (Colic, Ulcers, Inflammation):
Re**al ozone therapy reduces inflammation in the gut and restores balance. Can help manage colic, ulcers, and metabolic disorders.
Respiratory Conditions & Blood Oxygenation:
Helps with heaves, pneumonia, and lung infections by increasing oxygen uptake. Supports horses with African Horse Sickness (AHS) by improving blood oxygen levels.
Joint & Ligament Health:
Reduces inflammation in arthritis, laminitis, and tendon injuries. Improves circulation for faster recovery.
Not Needed for: Basic relaxation or mild wellness (an ozone blanket is sufficient in these cases).
Also understanding the oxygen sources and their purity levels is crucial for effective and safe ozone therapy in horses.
Ambient 🤷🏻♀️ vs 🤷🏻♀️ Medical Grade oxygen?
Ambient air comprises approximately 21% oxygen and the remainder 78% being nitrogen and other gasses.
Whereas Medical Grade oxygen is typically 99.9% pure providing a clean and concentrated oxygen source for Ozone generation.
If you need serious immune system support, deep detox, or oxygenation, Medical Ozone Therapy is the way to go.
Ozone blankets are a great option for surface-level detox and relaxation. However of you are looking for deeper systemic healing, medical ozone therapy may be a more appropriate choice.
Key Takeaways
▪️ Ozone Blanket = Best for detox & general recovery
▪️ Medical Ozone Therapy = Best for infections & deep healing
▪️ Medical-grade oxygen (99.9%) = Stronger therapeutic effects than ambient air (21%)
