Ozone Discectomy

1. What is Ozone Discectomy?

Description:
Ozone Discectomy is an innovative treatment for disc-related pain caused by herniated or bulging discs.

• How It Works: Ozone gas is injected into the affected disc to shrink the herniation and reduce pressure on surrounding nerves.
• Target Areas: Commonly used to treat cervical, thoracic, and lumbar disc issues.
• Minimally Invasive: Performed using a thin needle under imaging guidance.

2. Benefits of Ozone Discectomy

Description:
Ozone Discectomy offers numerous advantages for patients with disc-related pain.

• Quick Recovery: Most patients resume normal activities within a few days.
• Pain Relief: Effectively alleviates nerve compression and inflammation.
• Safe and Effective: Minimal risk of complications and high success rates.
• Cost-Effective: More affordable compared to surgical alternatives.
