Ultraviolet Blood Irradiation (UVBI) with Ozone (Photo-Ox Treatment)
Photo-Ox therapy combines ultraviolet light and Ozone to support immune function, reduce inflammation, and improve oxygen utilization at the cellular level.
What Is This Therapy?
Ultraviolet Blood Irradiation (UVBI), also known as Photo-Ox treatment, is a therapy that combines ultraviolet light with medical-grade ozone to support immune function, oxygen utilization, and overall cellular health.
This therapy has been used in medical settings since the 1940s as a supportive treatment to help promote immune balance, reduce inflammation, and support the body’s natural healing processes.
How Does It Work?
During treatment, a small amount of blood is withdrawn through an IV catheter, combined with a controlled amount of medical-grade ozone, and exposed to ultraviolet light before being returned to the body.
Different frequencies of ultraviolet light have individual biological properties. When used together with ozone, these processes may help support immune system activity, improve oxygen availability to tissues, and assist the body’s natural response to inflammation and infection.
Why Is This Therapy Used?
UVBI and ozone are often combined because they may work synergistically to support immune modulation, oxygen delivery, and overall wellness. Together, they may help increase the body’s ability to carry oxygen at the cellular level while supporting antiviral, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory responses.
This combination allows providers to support multiple biological processes in a single treatment.
Who May Benefit
UVBI with ozone therapy may be considered for individuals experiencing:
Chronic or recurrent infections, including viral, bacterial, or fungal infections
Post-viral or post-COVID symptoms
Chronic fatigue
Inflammation or immune system imbalance
Autoimmune disorders, including rheumatoid arthritis
Lyme-related symptoms
Mold exposure related symptoms
Upper respiratory disease or recurrent respiratory infections
Mono, herpes simplex, or herpes zoster
Myelitis
Pneumonia
Wound infections or recurrent skin infections
Diabetic ulcers or non-healing wounds
Bursitis or fibrositis
Individuals receiving supportive care alongside cancer treatment
Those seeking to boost immune function or increase general well-being as part of an individualized treatment plan
Potential Benefits
Immune system support
Improved oxygen utilization at the cellular level
Reduced inflammation
Support for recovery and overall wellness
Increased energy and stamina
What to Expect During Treatment
During treatment, a small amount of blood is withdrawn through an IV, treated with ultraviolet light and ozone in a controlled system, and then returned to the body. Treatments typically last approximately 45–60 minutes and are performed by a trained medical professional. We offer this as two treatments in one, with minimal cost added.
Treatment Planning & Frequency
This therapy is often performed as part of an individualized treatment plan. Frequency and progression are determined by your provider based on your symptoms and overall health goals.
