Medical Ozone Therapy in Greenville, SC

Medical Ozone Therapy at IHP Greenville. Dr. Hendry, DAOM — functional medicine, root-cause diagnostics, personalized care. Call (864) 365-6156.

Medical ozone therapy uses pharmaceutical-grade oxygen-ozone mixtures (typically 1–5% ozone, 95–99% oxygen) administered through specific routes for therapeutic benefit. At Integrative Health Partners, Dr. Hendry — an AAOT member with specialized ozone therapy training — offers medical ozone therapy as a standalone treatment and as part of comprehensive integrative protocols for chronic conditions.

How Medical Ozone Therapy Works

Medical ozone therapy at IHP is available via rectal insufflation (most systemic route), ear and nasal insufflation (upper respiratory and neurological conditions), ozone sauna (transdermal systemic delivery), and localized applications for wounds or joint conditions. All ozone is generated fresh from medical-grade oxygen immediately before use — ozone cannot be stored. Concentrations and volumes are precisely measured and recorded for each session.

Conditions Treated with Medical Ozone Therapy

Your First Appointment

G6PD deficiency testing is recommended before beginning ozone therapy (G6PD deficiency is an absolute contraindication). Hyperthyroidism is also a contraindication. Dr. Hendry reviews your complete health history and current medications before first treatment.

Why Dr. Hendry for Medical Ozone Therapy

Dr. Hendry's AAOT membership represents formal professional training in medical ozone therapy protocols, safety, and clinical indications — ensuring that ozone at IHP is used at evidence-based concentrations for appropriate conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Medical ozone is produced from pure medical-grade oxygen using a clinical ozone generator with precise concentration control. The ozone concentration (measured in mcg/mL) is titrated for therapeutic effect. Environmental ozone (pollution) at low concentrations is a lung irritant — medical ozone administered correctly is not inhaled and produces therapeutic biological effects.
Both are oxidative therapies, but ozone acts through different mechanisms (radical initiation by ozonides and lipid peroxidation products) and is administered through routes that do not produce the risks associated with high-dose hydrogen peroxide IV therapy.
Ozone therapy is not FDA-approved in the US as a specific treatment. It is practiced legally by licensed healthcare providers under their state scope of practice as a complementary intervention. It has a much stronger regulatory history in Europe, where it is mainstream in countries like Germany, Spain, and Italy.
10–20 sessions minimum for most chronic conditions, with maintenance sessions monthly thereafter.
Mild side effects (Herxheimer reactions — temporary worsening of symptoms as pathogens or toxins are mobilized) are possible in the first 3–5 sessions, particularly for patients with chronic infections. These are transient and indicate therapeutic response.
