Ozone therapy is a therapeutic method, which finds in recent years increasingly used in clinical practice. Ozone has a large variety of medicinal effects. For example, we know that it has antibacterial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects, enhances mikrogemodinamiku, facilitates correction of disorders of lipid peroxidation and increases the activity of antioxidant defense system. All this made it possible to use this method in the treatment of a number of diseases.

Application of ozone therapy:

Contraindications

Ozone therapy is contraindicated in the following diseases: acute pancreatitis, myocardial infarction, alcohol intoxication, hyperthyroidism, hypotension, internal bleeding (obligatory medical consultation).

Currently, more and more insistently an interest in non-medicated treatments that can replace or significantly limit the need for drugs and thus affect various aspects of the pathological process, contribute to impaired regulation of homeostasis, improvement of the functional state of various organs and systems, enhancing the protective forces organism. One such method is the use of ozone treatment, receiving widespread in our country and abroad.

The broad possibilities of using ozone for treatment and prevention of its high clinical efficacy, good tolerance by patients, the relative cheapness of the method, and therefore significantly cheaper – all these contribute to the fact that ozone therapy in an isolated form or combined with other medical factors must be widely used.

New ozone, as antiseptic was tested A. Wolff in 1915 during the First World War. In subsequent years gradually accumulate information about the successful use of ozone in the treatment of various diseases.

Low concentrations of ozone contribute epithelialization and healing.

In the treatment of colitis, rectal, fistulas, and several other diseases of intestines used rectal ozone-oxygen gas mixture. Ozone dissolved in distilled water, has been successfully used for the rehabilitation of various body cavities.

In recent decades, came to the fore the methods associated with parenteral (intravenous, intramuscular, intraarticular, subcutaneous) administration of therapeutic doses of ozone. For intravenous use ozone, dissolved in saline or in the patient’s blood.

Therapeutic doses of ozone introduced parenterally, significantly strengthens and improves the microcirculation of trophic processes in organs and tissues, affect the rheological properties of blood, have a pronounced immunomodulating effect contributes to the upsurge in detoxification of the body’s defense.

The variety of mechanisms of therapeutic action of ozone identified and breadth of its clinical application.

The most permanent and important symptom of a peptic ulcer is pain. In most cases, an ulcer appears as a pulling pain in the gut. The pain may be caused by irritation of ulcers gastric juice, as well as the influence of nutrition as an ulcer, and in the nervous apparatus of the stomach. Pain in peptic ulcer disease have a clear rhythm (time of occurrence and relation to meals), frequency (alternating with periods of pain of their absence) and seasonality of exacerbations. Characteristically, the pain when ulcers are reduced or disappear after meals and antacids (Almagel, Maalox).

One of the most frequent and early symptoms of ulcer disease is heartburn (acid regurgitation). Most, like pain, it occurs at night or on an empty stomach. Appetite for peptic ulcer disease is usually maintained or even increased, so-called "painful feeling of hunger."

The succession of New Year and Christmas holidays – the hottest time for medical gastroenterologists. But is it possible to avoid troubles in the gastronomic holidays?

Advises PhD, head of the Moscow branch of the Central Research Institute of Gastroenterology Ludmila Vinokourov.

- First of all let me note: all of what I will say is aimed not sick. Those who suffer from gastritis, cholecystitis, or pancreatitis, are well aware, as is fraught with a heavy meal, and excesses, as a rule, do not allow. Another thing – people who consider themselves healthy. That’s fine, but they, after the New Year holidays, accompanied by abundant glutton for the most part apply to doctors gastroenterologist complaining of a variety of ailments.

- What are the complaints most frequently treated in the early days of New Year?

- I will not be original if I say that everything is repeated from year to year. And these truths ought to learn everything.

So.

If the feast you experience heartburn and burping, it’s likely due to reflux from the stomach into the esophagus is not fully digested food. Rancidity may indicate that overexertion of the gall bladder. This means that you too leaned on fatty foods.

Abuse of sweets, cabbage, horseradish and other starchy foods can cause bloating. Feeling overflow and bursting open in the stomach – only a certificate of banal over-eating. Mutton, pork and other indigestible protein products, to use them "with over", can lead to very unpleasant phenomenon – constipation. And finally, if you feel pain in the abdomen, it speaks about indigestion, flatulence, or hyperextension of the walls of the stomach.

- But the test meal during the holidays and subject to other organs.

- Of course, most difficult to account for the stomach: though they say that it can accommodate 10 liters of fluid, in fact, such a burden for him excessively high. But the stomach is closely related to other organs. And if it is overloaded, it makes the work with greater load and liver, and duodenum, and pancreas. As a result of the New Year eating can occur exacerbation of many chronic diseases, including those about the existence of which man had no idea. This, for example, cholecystitis, hepatitis, pancreatitis.

- What to do in order to prevent similar troubles?

- First of all – do not overeat. The holiday celebration, but health is still expensive. Of course, it is difficult to resist the temptation to afford at least a little relief, so I will give some specific recommendations – that and the holiday is not marred by excessive austerity, and then suffer from the excesses feast.

First. Before you sit down, about half an hour, not hurt to take any drugs that enhance digestion and blocking flatulence and heartburn. If you feel that pereeli can help, for example, panzinorm, mezim or enzistal.

Second. When bloating instead of the traditional activated carbon and Festal better take Espumizan – it is much more efficient. The drug will remove stress from heavy meals at unusual times.

Third. Given that the festival lasts all night, do not load up at once, as if you may want to try the delicacies. Stretch is a fun time, eat throughout the night and often for a bit: it is much safer than many at once.

Fourth. Much depends on whether any of the products prepared dishes. In preparing the holiday table, do not try to buy the cheap: it is better to buy more expensive, but quality products.And not in the market, but in those stores you trust.

Fifth. New Year – a test for those who suffer from allergies. How would you like to arrange a holiday or your children, keep in mind, however, that nuts, caviar, chocolate, oranges in excessive amounts – is food allergens.

Sixth. Allergies in adults can cause large amounts of mussels, oysters, shrimp. Do not overuse them.

Seventh. To prevent salmonellosis not prepare cream cheese for protein, as well as sauces, which include raw eggs.

Eighth. Abandon traditional Olivier and herring. Typically, they are amply seasoned with mayonnaise, and it includes vinegar, which can cause exacerbation of chronic diseases. It is better to prepare light salad of raw vegetables, fruits and herbs, season with their natural yogurt or fat-free sour cream, lemon juice or pomegranate.

Ninth. On hot, instead of heavy goose, duck, meat is better lodge baked fish. However, it is possible, and meat, but lean and in moderation. Greens, vegetables, fruits, herbs, use not hesitate – it’s something they can not harm your health.

- Separate issue – drinks for festive table. What do you recommend here?

- In general, the selection of alcohol at the holiday table should be handled with utmost care. Not hurt, and in some cases may even be useful in dry red wine known companies that you trust. As for vodka, then it is definitely dangerous to health, especially women.

- Why women?

- Yes, because of women drinkers, usually useless, and this is purely due to physiological causes. In the women’s body does not have enough chemicals that break down alcohol, to the same woman’s liver is smaller than men. And they were so intoxicated faster than men. And then suffer the consequences of irrepressible holiday more.

Passing

Although vodka is by and large and harmful, to open New Year’s meal is sometimes it does not hurt. This will help stimulate your appetite and set up on the festive mood. But at the same time will prevent a cold, if you, contrary to tradition, to celebrate the New Year not with your family, but somewhere in the cheerful company of nature.

The recipe is simple: in a wine glass omit egg yolk. To taste salt and season with red pepper. Then very carefully, on the wall of wine glasses, pour in the vodka – always icy. Number of vodka – 50 g. Drink this cocktail in one gulp at the beginning of the holiday – and you’re assured of a cheerful mood.

- And what will happen the next day after these experiments?

- If you follow the rules mentioned above, particular problems are foreseen. But if all the same holiday was too heavy, will not prevent unloading a couple of days.

Diet after the holiday – it is very important for both patients and for healthy people. It may be different – depending on your medical condition. Give the average version, which is likely to suit everyone.

Kefir day. Forget about the delicacies of New Year feast. On this day – only kefir. After every two hours, drink one glass. During the day it will be released 6-8 glasses. Curd day. Your menu – 500-600 g fat-free cottage cheese. Eat it in 5-6 receptions, drinking broth hips or herbal tea. More on this day – nothing.

Cold and heat are two fundamental concepts in the system of human interaction with the environment. The way most people cold is the embodiment of hostile elements, a source of constant danger and discomfort. Heat the contrary is credible and location associated with the comfort and well-being.

From a physical point of view of cold and heat relative terms, in a first approximation determined by the difference in body temperature and environment with which it interacts. If the body through contact with the external environment loses heat, the feeling of cold. If the ambient temperature, air, water, and whether the object which touches the surface of the skin above body temperature, there is a sensation of heat. In most cases the environment somewhat colder than the surface of the body, so people constantly lose a certain amount of heat. The number assigned to the heat does not exceed the physiological norm (about 50 W/m2) and constantly feeling cold does not arise. If you change the conditions of heat removal, for example, to hide part of the body clothing, there is a feeling of warmth, despite the fact that the clothing initially colder body.

Subjective feelings of heat and cold associated with the direction and intensity of heat transfer, in some cases can artificially weaken or intensify these sensations. In the course of this struggle for survival was a genetic fear of all living things to heat and cold, having mastered the methods of simulation of overheating or freezing, you can learn how to use this fear to prevent and cure many diseases.

The ability of warm-blooded animals and humans maintain a constant body temperature, allowed them to win in the evolutionary struggle to occupy the upper levels in food chains.Thermoregulatory system is so important to preserve the advantages of this species over others, that has a high priority over the other senses. The reaction of the organism to exposure to cold on the severity of the reaction is second only to asthma. Powerful stimulating effect on the physical safety factor is given in the hands of doctors and patients a universal weapon for combating serious diseases.

On the healing properties of cold mentioned by the ancient physicians, Avicenna and Hippocrates in his work reported the healing properties of cold compresses. Predilection is known for cold procedures Catherine II and Alexander Suvorov.

Today, thanks to the development of cryogenic technology available to physicians were ultra-low temperature, before applying cold disclosed unprecedented horizons. A most striking example of a paradoxical reaction to skin contact with cryogenic environment is a relatively new method of treating diseases of musculoskeletal system – cryogenic therapy (cryotherapy).

Cold Against Rheumatism

Japanese scientist Dr. Toshima Yamauchi developed a completely new and unusual way to treat rheumatic diseases. He heals the sick with a cold. The results of Toshima Yamauchi speak for themselves. Only 10 years after his clinic was about two thousand patients with the most advanced forms of rheumatic diseases. About 80% of patients almost completely got rid of the pain and returned to normal life.

By Toshima Yamauchi: "One can say that I helped the case. As a student, I passed the practice in one of the clinics. Even then, looking at how patients suffer from rheumatoid arthritis and how difficult it is for medical staff to help them, I began to think about the search for new, more effective ways to treat them. So, before the New Year is one of our patients ran home to your family to celebrate a holiday. But before he reached home, got lost, and when a few hours later we found him, he badly froze. I had no doubt that his health has worsened. So much to stay in the cold! To my surprise, he felt much better. This case is planted in my soul the first seed of doubt. I began to carefully look around to other patients. At the winter holidays we have many patients were released home. After warm wards they often come in not heated, ice-covered house. They often had to get out of mats and welcome families. And how strange, they returned to the clinic more alert and mobile. Then I first decided to try to treat rheumatic diseases with the cold.

Now I run a clinic, which is located in the mountains Kiushus, on the southernmost of the four major islands of Japan – Kyushu. This is the world’s only clinic, where the main role in the treatment of rheumatic diseases belong to the cold. How all this looks like in practice?

Our series consists of two phases. The first – treatment of the affected joints of the patient cold, second-long exercise. We receive people with very advanced forms of the disease. Many of them several years bedridden. Therefore, first with a cold, we charge patients pain, promoting relaxation of the joints. The patient is a kriotorium-box for special handling of the whole body.There is served cooled to – 160 ° C air. Man is in a cell no more than 2 to 3 minutes. This procedure is repeated throughout the day several times. After cooling, the patient is sent to the therapy department. Here, with the help of special equipment are beginning to develop the sick limb. We strive to make people perform movements associated with physical exertion.Mechanisms pull, crush, trample, strike all the joints. Incidentally, all equipment designed by our staff. Classes last for up to 10 hours a day. Even at night, when the patients go to bed, we put them on a special mechanical couch. Secured arms and legs to the mechanisms that need to develop joints. The course of treatment lasts several months, and in fact, all this time and day and night, the joints of patients are in motion. We believe that only through continuous exposure may defeat the disease. We treated very difficult. I will tell more about some details. The day begins at 6 o’clock in the morning. Patients face the charge. Under the supervision of doctors, they squatted for several hours, jumping, twisting arms, etc. Every day, each patient must overcome from 2 to 5 thousand steps. Heavy patients ascend the hill on wheelchairs, pushing the earth down. After intensive charging comes breakfast. Patients eat everything, who wants to, not observing a diet. And take food with his hands, even during meals, they try to force the hands to work intensively. In any weather, even if it’s freezing and snowing, our wards bathe.Some just pass through the cooled to 8 degrees Celsius water, others in her delayed longer. Cold water relieves pain, a beneficial effect on human well-being. Then they resume physical exercise.

We understand that the treatment is not easy. Therefore, a large role psychotherapy. For example, patients are divided into two groups. In each there are novices and veterans, who are already preparing for discharge. Looking at patients who received treatment, newcomers regain lost hope for recovery, and exerting all our will to achieve the same results. Veterans of the complaint and stubbornly holding back for a lead beginners. This psychological spike helps people endure hardship. In addition, every week we organize trips to our patients that they did not feel isolated from the world. When patients begin to feel better, we allow them to go shopping in the center.

Specially selected music affects the well-being of our patients. During the exercise, it helps to make them in rhythm. During the morning exercises music invigorates, energizes. That is, we try to ensure that in our clinic every detail was designed to suggestion patient self-confidence in their strength, the desire to recover. However, the main ally and propagandist – is an example of people who were brought to the clinic is not moving, but they went out of her own.

Has long been known that the cold has anesthetic effect. Previously, patients with a temperature put bubbles on the forehead with ice. Burned hand dipped in cold water. This simple procedure to relieve the suffering of patients. Incidentally, I began its procedures with ice. Pits were eventually lined the sick limb pieces of ice, but it was not convenient, and then got the idea to use a dry and cold air.

So, after exposure to cold body temperature for many hours remain high. Thus there is a favorable changes in blood and joint fluid. Our experiments have shown that cold induces the body to develop "antirheumatic" hormones.

In our clinic, the people chained for several years to bed in a week start to move independently. None of the existing modern methods can not provide such a rapid and effective impact. Our treatment is very convenient. It requires all patients voltage physical and spiritual strength, but it brings results. 



After medical treatment, we say their patients that if they want to live and work normally, it must continually develop their joints, not to give them "rust". But life is life, and not all are successful. Nevertheless, as shown by sample data, a third of our patients, even without resorting to regular classes, feel good.

It is encouraging that we were able to fix the joints without surgical intervention, using the cold. Of course, generally speaking, we now difficult. Our method is only beginning to make his own way in life. But I firmly believe that this method of treatment of rheumatic diseases cold eventually prove its right to exist, will be applied as widely and effectively as the old, proven methods.

T. Yamauchi’s merit lies in the fact that by observing the influence of natural cold on patients with rheumatoid arthritis, he failed to notice the positive result, repeatedly found ways to increase physical impact on the system of thermoregulation and skillfully combined with a cryogenic physiotherapy kinesitherapy. Established technique has been successfully applied them to this day in Western Europe. But, being a narrow specialist, he was unable to evaluate the true therapeutic possibilities krioterapevticheskogo impact. The arguments about "antirheumatic" hormones, which are allegedly produced for patients under the influence of cold, show that the author did not understand and did not appreciate the strong nonspecific effect of cold on the whole human organism. As shown by recent studies, the main result of cryogenic treatment is a mobilization and training of the immune system. Enhancement of immune status is making progress in the treatment of arthritic joints.

Narrow view of T. Yamauchi for therapeutic possibilities cryogenic treatment was the cause that sets the behavior of these procedures – cryogenic physiotherapy facilities, used mainly in rheumatology. Not considered the nature of therapeutic action of cold and the possibility of extending this method to other areas of medicine. In Russia, practical cryotherapy started 20 years later, but, unlike Europe and Japan, there cryogenic systems were not implemented rheumatologists, and physiotherapists. Accommodation krioterapevticheskoy equipment in the physiotherapy departments of multi-hospital, created the conditions for the use of cryotherapy in the treatment of a wide range of diseases. Changed view on the procedure itself, was established physical theory of cryotherapy and developed a system of quantitative assessment of its results. The presence of the theory is designed to eliminate many of metaphysical confusion about the parameters krioterapevticheskogo impact, to develop science-based technology, the impact on the skin cryogenic temperatures and to organize the production of domestic technology, which greatly exceeds the foreign samples on therapeutic efficacy. Due to its high consumption of cryogenic physiotherapy complexes produced in Russia is actively exported abroad, including in countries that have their physiotherapy cryogenic system. But the main advantage of cryotherapy was a significant expansion of indications for its use. Already today the list of branches of medicine, which is applied as follows:

Of key importance is the study and extensive practical application of immunomodulating effect of cryogenic treatment. Broad prophylactic use of immunostimulation can qualitatively change the situation with the treatment of a number of socially significant diseases.
