Paravertebral Ozone Therapy: A Solution Focused on the Source of Pain

A targeted, minimally invasive method for spinal pain such as lumbar and cervical disc herniation.

Lower back and neck pain are very common today, mostly stemming from spinal problems such as herniated discs, disc degeneration, or muscle spasms. Paravertebral ozone therapy is a non-surgical method that effectively targets the source of the pain.

What is Paravertebral Ozone Therapy?

"Paravertebral" refers to the muscle groups on both sides of the spine. In this treatment, medical ozone-oxygen gas is injected into the muscle tissue surrounding the spinal segment causing pain. This reduces inflammation and accelerates healing.

How is it Applied?

• The patient lies comfortably in a prone position.
• The target area is cleaned with an antiseptic solution.
• Medical ozone is injected into the muscles on both sides of the spine with thin needles.
• The procedure usually takes 5–10 minutes.

Mechanism of Action

• Anti-inflammatory effect: Reduces pressure on the nerve.
• Pain-relieving effect: Slows down the transmission of pain signals.
• Increases circulation: Accelerates oxygenation and tissue repair in the area.
• Muscle relaxant effect: Resolves spasms.

Who is it Suitable For?

• Lumbar and cervical disc herniation
• Degenerative disc disease
• Spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal)
• Facet joint pain
• Myofascial pain syndrome

It is a Procedure Requiring Expertise

Applying the injection to the correct point is critical for the effectiveness of the treatment. Therefore, paravertebral ozone therapy must be performed by an experienced specialist physician.
