FİBROMYALGİA AND OZON THREAPY!( A CLİNİCAL TRİAL AND OUR APPROACH)

fibromyalgia syndrome is popularly know as muscle rheumatism. fibromyalgia causes diffuse areas of tenderness in the body.

it is a chronic, long-term condition that causes pain in the ömuscles and bones, fatigue, problems with sleep patterns and mental disorders.

fibromyalgia patients are difficult to diagnose because there are no laboratory or radiology findings.

treatment of fibromyalgia is difficult and complex, but lifestyle changes can relieve fibromyalgia symptoms.

fibromyalgia, a common disease, occurs in approximately 3% of the population and is the second most common disease among rheumatic diseases.

although it can be seen at all ages, it is three times more common in women that in men.

A close examination of the symptoms of the disease, the conditions that cause the disease, the diagnosis and treatment of the disease allows us to better understand fibromyalgia.

In addition to medication and physical therapy, practices such as healthy nutrition, exercise and stress management improve the quality of life patients.

ozon therapy, recommended in fibromyalgia, provides a significant improvement in symptoms of chronic fatigue anxiety and depression, especially ineffective sleep. ozone therapy, wh,ch is useful in the treatment of many chronic diseases used in the treatment of wide variety of diseases, is thought to act by applying a mild and controlled oxidative stress that strengthens the antioxidant system and supports the immune system.

In this article, we will examine the study about 65 patients with fibromyalgia according to the definition of the American College of Rheumatology between February 2016 and October 2018 were treated in the MEDE Clinic. according to SIOOT protocols, 55 patients were treated with major ozone and 10 patients were treated with rectal ozone twice a week for one month and then twice a month as maintenance therapy.

currently, ozone therapy is a complementary medical treatment method that can be recommended to fibromyalgia patients who do not get sufficient results in other available treatments because it does not have any side effects.

so what is ozone? how is ozone applied in fibromyalgia?

ozone is a molecule formed by the combination of three oxygen atoms. It is found naturally in the atmosphere. Medically, its application for threapetuic purposes is made suitable for intravenous injection with a special device and injected into the blood. Ozone session is determined after detailed patient information and examinaton of physicians.

Additional benefits of ozone therapy are to relieve pain and discomfort by regressing the inflammatory process, effectively increasing blood circulation, delivering oxygen and nutrients to tissues, accelerating wound healing and playing an important role in cell protection.

In our clinic, we evaluate our patients’ lifestyle and social environment together with their medical history and put finding the underlying problems and finding solutions for them in the first places in treatment. In addition to classical medical treatments, we also use traditional and complementary practices.

In such chronic diseases, we evaluate our patients with a physician, physiothreapist, dietician and psychologist within the scope of what we call holistic evaluation.
