Starting a new health therapy can feel both exciting and overwhelming—especially one as advanced as Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation (EBOO). If you’ve been exploring cutting-edge detox and wellness therapies, EBOO might have caught your attention due to its powerful benefits in clearing toxins, boosting immunity, and improving overall vitality.
At the Charleston Pain Relief Center, we believe in empowering our patients with knowledge so they feel confident and informed throughout their healing journey. In this detailed guide, we’ll walk you through exactly what to expect during your first EBOO session—from the science behind the treatment to how you should prepare, what happens during the procedure, potential after-effects, and how to maximize your results.
What Is EBOO Therapy?
EBOO stands for Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation. It is a powerful and highly effective form of ozone therapy that works by removing blood from the body, filtering it, infusing it with medical-grade oxygen and ozone, and returning the cleansed blood back into your system. It is sometimes referred to as ozone dialysis due to its similarity to kidney dialysis in how it processes large volumes of blood.
Unlike standard ozone therapies that treat small amounts of blood, EBOO treats up to 5 liters in one session, offering comprehensive detoxification at the cellular level.
Benefits of EBOO Therapy
- Detoxifies heavy metals, mold, and environmental pollutants
- Destroys viruses, bacteria, and fungi
- Increases oxygen delivery to cells
- Enhances energy and metabolism
- Reduces inflammation
- Supports the immune system
- Improves circulation and overall health
How to Prepare for Your First EBOO Session
To ensure a safe and effective experience, some preparation is recommended:
1. Consultation and Medical Review
Before your appointment, you will undergo a detailed health assessment with one of our medical professionals. This includes reviewing your medical history, current medications, and any chronic conditions.
2. Hydration
Drink plenty of water the day before and the day of your appointment. Hydration improves blood flow and makes it easier to access veins.
3. Eat a Light Meal
A small meal 1–2 hours before your session helps maintain stable blood sugar levels during the procedure.
4. Avoid Stimulants
Refrain from drinking caffeine or energy drinks before your treatment.
5. Wear Comfortable Clothing
You’ll be seated or reclined for up to 2 hours. Dress in loose, comfortable clothes and consider bringing a book or headphones for relaxation.
What Happens During Your EBOO Session
The EBOO therapy session at Charleston Pain Relief Center is designed to be as comfortable and stress-free as possible.
Step-by-Step Breakdown:
1. Check-In and Preparation
When you arrive, a staff member will review your consent forms and answer any last-minute questions. Your vital signs will be taken to ensure you’re stable for treatment.
2. Venous Access
Two intravenous lines are used: one to withdraw your blood and one to return the filtered and ozonated blood. A nurse or technician will insert the IVs into veins, typically in your arms.
3. Blood Circulation and Filtration
Your blood is drawn from one arm and passed through a specialized EBOO machine. This device:
Filters out waste and toxins
Exposes your blood to medical-grade ozone and oxygen
Enhances the blood’s ability to carry oxygen
4. Ozone Infusion and Return to Body
The freshly treated blood is returned to your body through the second IV line. This cycle continues for about 45–60 minutes, treating up to 5 liters of blood.
5. Monitoring
Our team continuously monitors your vitals and comfort throughout the procedure. Most patients relax, read, or even nap during the session.
6. Post-Treatment Review
Once your session is complete, the IVs are removed, and you’ll be monitored briefly to ensure you’re feeling well. You’ll receive aftercare instructions and have an opportunity to discuss your experience.
How You Might Feel After Treatment
Most patients report feeling more energized, mentally clear, and lighter after their first session. However, individual experiences can vary:
Immediate Effects:
- Increased energy
- Clearer thinking
- Mild euphoria or relaxation
Short-Term Side Effects:
- Temporary fatigue (due to detox reaction)
- Mild flu-like symptoms (a Herxheimer response)
- Bruising or discomfort at the IV site
These symptoms are typically mild and resolve within 24–48 hours. They’re a sign that toxins are being released and your body is adjusting.
Tips to Maximize Results
To get the most from your EBOO treatment, we recommend:
1. Hydrate Well
Continue drinking water after your session to support kidney function and toxin elimination.
2. Eat Clean
Opt for a nutrient-rich diet of whole foods, lean protein, fruits, and vegetables. Avoid alcohol, sugar, and processed foods.
3. Rest and Sleep
Give your body time to integrate the changes. Aim for at least 7–8 hours of quality sleep the night after your session.
4. Exercise Gently
Light activities like walking or yoga help stimulate circulation and detoxification.
5. Schedule Follow-Up Treatments
For chronic conditions, multiple sessions may be necessary. Your provider will recommend a personalized treatment schedule.
