Chronic illness, autoimmune dysfunction, and stubborn infections continue to challenge conventional medical approaches. As patients seek alternatives beyond pharmaceutical interventions, ozone therapy has emerged as a powerful tool for addressing systemic health issues at their root. This medical treatment harnesses the therapeutic properties of ozone gas to enhance cellular oxygenation, modulate immune function, and support the body’s natural detoxification processes.
Yet not all ozone therapies are created equal. Three primary protocols dominate clinical practice: Traditional Ozone IV therapy, 10 Pass ozone therapy, and EBOO (Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation). Each delivers different ozone concentrations and therapeutic outcomes, making the choice between them critical for treatment success.
Understanding these distinctions becomes essential when addressing complex health challenges. Traditional IV therapy offers a gentle introduction to ozone treatment. The 10 Pass method provides moderate intensity for chronic conditions. EBOO stands apart by delivering the highest total ozone dose while incorporating ultraviolet blood irradiation (UBI) — a combination that maximizes therapeutic impact for severe systemic conditions.
This analysis examines each protocol’s mechanisms, applications, and clinical outcomes to help patients and practitioners make evidence-based treatment decisions. For those confronting advanced chronic illness, immune dysregulation, or toxicity-related conditions, understanding which therapy offers the greatest therapeutic potential can determine treatment success.
What is ozone therapy?
Ozone therapy utilizes medical-grade ozone (O₃) to enhance cellular function and support healing mechanisms throughout the body. This treatment modality works by introducing controlled amounts of ozone into the bloodstream, where it triggers beneficial biochemical cascades that improve tissue oxygenation and cellular metabolism.
The therapeutic mechanisms of ozone therapy operate on multiple physiological levels. Ozone enhances oxygen utilization at the cellular level, particularly within mitochondria where energy production occurs. This improved oxygenation supports cellular repair processes and optimizes metabolic function. Additionally, ozone therapy modulates immune system activity, helping to balance overactive immune responses in autoimmune conditions while strengthening defenses against infections and toxins.
Clinical applications demonstrate ozone therapy’s anti-inflammatory properties, as it helps regulate inflammatory mediators and reduces systemic inflammation. The treatment also supports natural detoxification pathways by enhancing the body’s ability to eliminate metabolic waste products and environmental toxins. Furthermore, ozone exhibits antimicrobial effects against bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, making it valuable for addressing chronic infections.
The key distinction between ozone therapy protocols lies in their delivery methods, dosage concentrations, and additional therapeutic components. These variables significantly impact treatment outcomes, determining which conditions respond best to each approach and which patients benefit most from specific protocols.

Traditional ozone IV therapy (Major Autohemotherapy)
Traditional ozone IV therapy, also known as major autohemotherapy, represents the foundational approach to intravenous ozone treatment. This protocol involves withdrawing approximately 100-200 milliliters of blood from the patient, mixing it with medical-grade ozone in a sterile container, and then reinfusing the ozonated blood back into the circulation.
The process typically takes 30-45 minutes and delivers a relatively modest ozone dose compared to more intensive protocols. The ozone concentration ranges from 10-80 gamma (micrograms per milliliter), making this approach suitable for patients new to ozone therapy or those requiring gentle immune support.
Traditional ozone IV therapy finds its primary applications in general wellness optimization, mild chronic fatigue, and basic immune system support. Patients experiencing low-grade inflammation, seasonal immune challenges, or those seeking preventive health measures often respond well to this gentler approach. The treatment can also serve as maintenance therapy for individuals who have completed more intensive ozone protocols.
The benefits of traditional ozone IV include improved energy levels, enhanced immune function, and mild detoxification support. Patients frequently report better sleep quality, increased mental clarity, and greater resilience to stress. However, this protocol’s limited ozone dose means it may not provide adequate therapeutic impact for severe chronic conditions, advanced infections, or significant toxicity issues.
Treatment frequency typically ranges from weekly to monthly sessions, depending on individual health goals and response patterns. This protocol serves as an excellent entry point for ozone therapy, allowing patients to assess their tolerance and response before considering more intensive options.
10 Pass ozone therapy
The 10 Pass ozone therapy protocol represents a significant advancement in ozone delivery, providing substantially higher therapeutic doses through multiple treatment cycles within a single session. This method involves repeatedly withdrawing blood, ozonating it under positive pressure, and reinfusing it back into the patient — completing up to 10 cycles during one treatment session.
Each cycle processes approximately 200-220 milliliters of blood, resulting in the treatment of 2-2.2 liters of blood per session. The ozone concentrations used in 10 Pass therapy range from 70-100 gamma, delivering dramatically higher total ozone exposure compared to traditional IV methods. The positive pressure system allows for greater ozone saturation and improved gas-to-blood mixing efficiency.
The clinical applications of 10 Pass therapy extend to more complex chronic conditions where higher therapeutic doses are necessary. Patients with Lyme disease, chronic viral infections, autoimmune disorders, and moderate to severe chronic fatigue syndrome often experience significant improvements with this protocol. The method also shows effectiveness for addressing systemic inflammation, supporting mitochondrial repair, and enhancing oxygen utilization at the cellular level.
Treatment benefits include substantial improvements in energy production, enhanced immune system modulation, and more pronounced detoxification effects. Patients frequently report dramatic increases in stamina, improved cognitive function, and better overall vitality. The higher ozone doses support more comprehensive antimicrobial activity, making this protocol valuable for addressing persistent infections that haven’t responded to conventional treatments.
The intensive nature of 10 Pass therapy typically requires treatments every 1-4 weeks, depending on the severity of the condition and individual response patterns. While more demanding than traditional IV therapy, 10 Pass offers a middle ground between gentle maintenance treatments and the most intensive ozone protocols available.
Sessions last approximately 1.5-2 hours, making this protocol more time-intensive than traditional ozone IV but still manageable for most patients. The increased therapeutic impact justifies the additional time investment for individuals with chronic conditions requiring more aggressive intervention.
EBOO (Extracorporeal blood oxygenation and ozonation)
EBOO represents the most advanced and therapeutically potent ozone therapy protocol available, combining high-dose ozone treatment with ultraviolet blood irradiation (UBI) in a single comprehensive session. This cutting-edge approach utilizes a closed-loop extracorporeal system that continuously circulates the patient’s blood through specialized equipment where it undergoes simultaneous ozonation and UV light exposure before returning to the body.
The EBOO system processes the patient’s entire blood volume multiple times during each treatment session, typically handling 1.5-3 liters of blood per session. The continuous circulation allows for optimal ozone saturation while the integrated UVI component provides additional antimicrobial, immune-modulating, and detoxification benefits. This dual-therapy approach creates synergistic effects that exceed the sum of either treatment alone.
The ozone concentrations used in EBOO can reach higher levels than other protocols due to the controlled extracorporeal environment and continuous processing capability. This results in the highest total ozone dose achievable through current therapeutic methods, making EBOO the protocol of choice for severe chronic conditions, advanced systemic toxicity, and complex immune dysfunction.
Clinical applications for EBOO encompass the most challenging health conditions that often resist conventional treatment approaches. Patients with severe chronic infections, including persistent Lyme disease, mycotoxin illness from mold exposure, advanced autoimmune conditions, and cardiovascular disorders frequently experience significant improvements with EBOO therapy. The protocol also demonstrates exceptional effectiveness for addressing heavy metal toxicity, chronic inflammatory response syndrome (CIRS), and complex multi-system illnesses.
The ultraviolet blood irradiation component of EBOO provides additional therapeutic mechanisms beyond ozone therapy alone. UVI enhances antimicrobial activity against bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens while stimulating immune system function and improving cellular oxygen utilization. This combination creates a more comprehensive therapeutic approach that addresses multiple aspects of chronic illness simultaneously.
EBOO treatments typically require 90-120 minutes per session, reflecting the comprehensive nature of the protocol. The extended treatment time allows for thorough blood processing and optimal therapeutic effect. Patients often experience dramatic improvements in energy levels, cognitive function, immune system balance, and overall vitality following EBOO sessions.
The detoxification effects of EBOO surpass other ozone protocols due to the combination of high-dose ozone exposure and UVI therapy. This enhanced detoxification capacity makes EBOO particularly valuable for patients with significant toxin burdens or those who haven’t responded adequately to gentler detoxification approaches.
Comparing EBOO, 10 Pass, and traditional ozone IV
Understanding the fundamental differences between these three ozone therapy protocols enables informed treatment decisions based on individual health needs, condition severity, and therapeutic goals. Each method offers distinct advantages and applications that make them suitable for different patient populations and clinical scenarios.
Method of administration
The delivery mechanisms vary significantly between protocols, directly impacting therapeutic outcomes. Traditional ozone IV therapy processes a small blood sample once per session, limiting total ozone exposure. The straightforward approach involves minimal equipment and shorter treatment times but provides correspondingly modest therapeutic impact.
10 Pass therapy employs multiple processing cycles within a single session, dramatically increasing total ozone exposure. The positive pressure system enhances ozone saturation efficiency, allowing for higher therapeutic doses than traditional methods. This approach requires more sophisticated equipment and longer treatment times but delivers substantially greater therapeutic benefit.
EBOO utilizes continuous blood circulation through an extracorporeal system, providing the most comprehensive ozone exposure possible. The closed-loop system ensures optimal ozone saturation while the integrated UVI component adds additional therapeutic mechanisms. This advanced approach requires specialized equipment and trained personnel but offers unparalleled therapeutic potential.
Ozone dosage comparison
The total ozone dose delivered by each protocol represents the most significant differentiating factor. Traditional ozone IV provides the lowest total dose, making it suitable for wellness maintenance and mild conditions but potentially inadequate for severe chronic illness.
10 Pass therapy delivers moderate to high ozone doses through multiple processing cycles, providing substantial therapeutic impact for chronic conditions while remaining accessible to most patients. The repeated exposure cycles allow for higher total doses than single-pass methods.
EBOO provides the highest possible ozone doses through continuous blood processing and optimal saturation techniques. The ability to process large blood volumes multiple times per session creates therapeutic possibilities unavailable through other methods.
Additional therapeutic technologies
EBOO’s integration of ultraviolet blood irradiation sets it apart from other ozone protocols. This additional therapeutic component provides antimicrobial, immune-modulating, and detoxification benefits that complement and enhance ozone therapy effects. The combination creates synergistic therapeutic mechanisms that exceed either treatment alone.
Neither traditional ozone IV nor 10 Pass therapy incorporates additional therapeutic technologies, limiting their mechanisms to ozone-specific effects. While effective within their scope, these protocols lack the comprehensive approach offered by EBOO’s dual-therapy design.
