Ozone Limb Bagging is a method of treating chronic wounds on extremities. If for example a patient has an open wound on their foot they would come in and have a plastic bag wrapped around the injured foot. The bag would then have a line of ozone going into the bag. An exit hole with a “destructor” would also be placed so that that there is a constant flow of oxygen & ozone into the bag. The “destructor” functions to destroy the ozone as it exits the bag so that the people in the room do not have to inhale ozone.

Ozone is a colorless gas made up of three atoms of oxygen (O3). We generate ozone by running an electrical current through medical grade oxygen.

Dr. Julia Ward employs different Ozone Therapies, including: Direct Intravenous Ozone Therapy, Ozone Dialysis and Hyperbaric 10 Pass Therapy. We detail each treatment separately but first, what exactly is ozone therapy? Ozone therapy takes medical-grade ozone, which is a highly reactive form of pure oxygen and creates a curative response in the body. The reactive properties of ozone stimulate the body to heal itself which is the cornerstone of regenerative medicine Dr. Julia Ward is offering.

Limb bagging with ozone gas is a medical procedure that is used to treat certain conditions such as chronic limb ischemia, diabetic foot ulcers, and infected wounds. The procedure involves placing a patient’s limb, usually a foot or leg, into a bag that is filled with ozone gas.

Ozone gas is a highly reactive form of oxygen that is produced by exposing oxygen molecules to an electric discharge. It has potent antimicrobial properties and can help improve blood flow by stimulating the production of nitric oxide, a molecule that helps dilate blood vessels.

During limb bagging with ozone gas, the limb is first cleaned and disinfected to reduce the risk of infection. The limb is then placed into a bag made of a gas-permeable material, such as polyvinyl chloride. Ozone gas is then introduced into the bag, either by pumping it in or by using a specialized machine that generates ozone gas.

The patient’s limb is allowed to remain in the bag for a specific period of time, usually between 20 minutes to an hour. During this time, the ozone gas penetrates the skin and soft tissues, where it can help kill bacteria and other pathogens. It can also help improve blood flow by stimulating the production of nitric oxide, which can help improve oxygenation and promote healing.

Ozone Limb Bagging may be used for a variety of conditions. Patients with the following conditions often see improvement:

Some of the health benefits of Ozone Limb Bagging are:

There is no preparation needed. Dr. Ward will prepare everything when you come in.

You will arrive and be shown to our ozone treatment room.  You will then sit in a very comfortable recliner and blankets and pillows will be provided.  You will be asked to read over and sign the consent form.  Dr. Ward will go over the procedure with you and any questions will be answered at this time.

The wound will be cleaned and moistened with saline. A bag is then placed over the limb and a line with ozone flowing out is placed in the bag. An exit hole is made which has a “destructor” device that breaks down ozone as the gas exits. This prevents the patient and staff from breathing in ozone gas. Ozone gas is very irritating to the lungs so breathing ozone is the one way that you do NOT want to do.

Some patients inquire if we offer this service. Major Autohemotherapy, (MAH) therapy began in Germany in the 1950s. This was one of the original ways that ozone was mixed with blood outside of the body. Before the Hyperbaric 10 Pass was invented this was the “gold standard” for getting the most amount of ozone into the body. A patient would have an IV placed. The patient’s blood would then be allowed to drain by gravity into a bag on the floor. When about 200cc of blood had filled the bag it would then be hung up above the patient. Then ozone gas is injected into the bag to mix with the patient’s blood. It was then dripped back into the patient.

Compared to the Hyperbaric 10 Pass this method was extremely inefficient and only delivered a small fraction of ozone. There is also some concern that the ozone gas would react to the plastic bag that the blood was collected in. With Hyperbaric 10 Pass there is a glass jar used rather than a plastic bag.

We do not offer Major Autohemotherapy because our other treatment methods, Hyperbaric 10 Pass Therapy and Ozone Dialysis are so much more efficient and deliver exponentially more ozone to the body.

The Hyperbaric 10 Pass (HBO3) was invented by an Austrian GYN doctor, Dr. Johann Lahodny. In this procedure the patient has one IV through which 200cc of blood is pulled into a glass vial using a slight vacuum pressure. Then through a separate line ozone is added to this glass vial – about 200 – 500cc. The blood and ozone are mixed then the blood is allowed back through the IV to the patient. That is considered one “pass”. Typically the patient has 10 of these passes done in one sitting – usually taking about one hour. This was the gold standard for getting the most amount of ozone into the body at one time. Once the ozone dialysis was developed by Dr. Robert Rowen it was found to get 4-6 times the amount of ozone than the Hyperbaric 10 Pass. Dr. Julia Ward was trained by Dr. Robert Rowen in both Hyperbaric 10 Pass and Ozone Dialysis.

EBOO (Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation & Ozonation) is another procedure that is comparable to Ozone Dialysis. It uses a separate machine (different manufacturer) than the one used for Hyperbaric 10 Pass and Ozone Dialysis.

Ozone is a colorless gas made up of three atoms of oxygen (O3). We generate ozone by running an electrical current through medical grade oxygen.

Ozone Joint Injection is a medical procedure that involves injecting ozone gas into a joint to help reduce pain and inflammation. It is a form of ozone therapy that is used to treat various joint conditions, such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and other types of joint pain.

In addition to relieving joint pain, promoting healing and recovery, and improving function and mobility, Ozone Joint Injection can safely and successfully treat a host of medical conditions including:

For many people, Ozone Joint Injection (Prolozone) is an ideal alternative to invasive surgery and a long recovery period. Instead, a customized series of prolozone injections can help your joint pain subside naturally, without surgery. Prolozone therapy also stabilizes the treated area by helping to strengthen damaged or injured tissue. It also:

• Decreases inflammation
• Kills pathogens (bacteria, viruses, mold, yeast)
• Increases stem cells

It is best to have at least a small amount of inflammation present in the joint space. Avoid taking things like ibuprofen (Motrin), Naprosyn or Tylenol for about 1 week prior to the procedure.

During the procedure, a small amount of a local anesthetic (procaine) is first injected into the joint space. Then ozone gas is injected directly into the same joint. The ozone gas can help stimulate the production of anti-inflammatory molecules, such as cytokines and prostaglandins, which can help reduce pain and swelling in the joint. It can also stimulate stem cells to migrate to the joint space. Ozone gas also has antimicrobial properties, which may help reduce the risk of infection in the joint.

For many patients this procedure brings relief of pain within a few hours. The effects can last from days to months depending on the patient and depending on the degree of inflammation and pathology initially present.

While Ozone Joint injection is generally considered safe, there are some potential risks and side effects associated with the procedure. These can include infection, allergic reactions, and nerve damage.

The Ozone Dialysis procedure involves having an IV in one arm, a pump that moves the blood through a system of micro-tubules, then the ozone is added to the blood as it is moving through the system. The blood can then be sent through a UV radiation machine (the Hemalumen) and finally it returns to the patient in a second IV in the opposite arm. The patient typically relaxes in a recliner for an hour as the blood is pumped around in this manner. In this way ozone is added to about 2 liters of blood. (about 1/3 of the total blood volume).

This is ideal for anyone who is acutely sick with a virus or bacterial infection. Also great for anyone with an autoimmune disorder or cancer.

Patients generally report feeling better right away or the next day. They have more energy and clearer thinking.

Key Benefits of Ozone Dialysis Therapy

• Cellular Detoxification: Effectively removes toxins, heavy metals, and environmental pollutants at a cellular level.
• Boosted Immune Function: Supports immune resilience against chronic infections, including Lyme disease, long COVID, and other persistent conditions.
• Reduced Inflammation: Alleviates symptoms associated with autoimmune disorders, arthritis, and inflammatory illnesses.
• Enhanced Energy and Mental Clarity: Many patients report increased energy, focus, and overall well-being after treatment.

Ozone Dialysis may be used for a variety of conditions. Patients with the following conditions often see improvement:

Some of the health benefits of Ozone Dialysis are:

• Drink plenty of water the day prior to and the day of treatment
• Eat something before coming into the office
• Take vitamin C 5-6 times throughout the day
• Take a good quality probiotic. I highly recommended to use Doctor’s Biome as this has been shown to help boost the immune system and further get rid of chronic viral infections (use code: WARD23 for a discount)
• Lift weights as this will help increase vein size

You will arrive and be shown to our ozone treatment room.  You will then sit in a very comfortable recliner.  Blankets and pillows will be provided.  You will be asked to read over and sign the consent form.  Any questions about the procedure will be answered at this time.

Monitors are placed – blood pressure, ECG (3 lead), heart rate, breathing, and oxygen saturation.

The first IV will be placed in one arm after which it will be “heparin locked” and taped securely.  Then the second IV is placed in the opposite arm (also heparin locked).  The tubing for the procedure is then set up (takes about 5-10  minutes).  A tourniquet is then placed on one arm above the IV and the out going tube is attached to the IV.  The dialysis pump then starts to pump the blood through the system.  Once the blood reaches the UV radiation machine (HemaLumen) then the return flow is hooked up to the second IV.  We then monitor you during this hour long procedure.  The outflow blood is then stopped while the rest of the blood in the tubing is allowed to return completely.

A final set of vital signs are completed.

The original method of mixing ozone with blood outside the body was called MAH: Major Auto-Hemotherapy. In this method an IV was placed, about 200cc of blood was allowed to drain into a plastic bag on the floor. The bag was then hung up and 200cc of ozone was then mixed into the bag then allowed to drip back into the patient. Obviously this was very inefficient and only allowed minimal amounts of ozone to be mixed with the blood.

The Hyperbaric 10 Pass (HBO3) was invented by an Austrian GYN doctor, Dr. Johann Lahodny. In this procedure the patient has one IV through which 200cc of blood is pulled into a glass vial using a slight vacuum pressure.

Typically people feel more energetic and more clear headed after the treatment. Occasionally some may feel a bit fatigued immediately following the treatment but then feel more energetic and clear headed the next day.

Yes! It is a great compliment to any treatment for cancer, Lyme, mold, or autoimmune disorders.
