How Does EBO2 Work and What Are Its Effects?

At Dr. Ergin Ertan Medical Clinic, we are delighted and proud to offer our patients and clients the EBO2 (Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation) device—a system recognized by some experts worldwide as one of the most significant medical devices of the past 50 years—as the culmination of our 20 years of expertise and experience in ozone therapy.

So, what is EBO2?

EBO2 (Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation) is an advanced blood purification and ozonation system that has become one of the most popular applications in modern medicine and “longevity” research. Unlike traditional ozone therapies (major autohemotherapy), it allows blood to be processed outside the body in a much larger volume.
EBO2 (Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation) is referred to in the medical world as the “dialysis of ozone therapy” because it is a far more comprehensive and technologically advanced method than traditional ozone therapies.
However, contrary to what may appear on the surface, EBO2 is far more than just an ozone device; it is a healing machine. The key factors that make it so significant include its medical filtration capabilities and its photomodulation (light therapy) features.

How does EBO2 work and what are its effects?

While standard ozone therapy (Major Autohemotherapy) involves drawing only 100–200 ml of blood from the body, the EBO2 device can filter a large portion of the body’s blood (approximately 2–3 liters) during a one-hour session. This creates a systemic detoxification effect.

Triple Action Mechanism

The EBO2 device does more than just administer ozone; it subjects the blood to a three-stage process:
* Oxygenation: It saturates the blood with oxygen.
* Ozonation: It modulates the immune system and targets pathogens (viruses, bacteria).
* Filtration: Using a special filter (similar to a dialyzer), it physically removes heavy metals, microplastics, cholesterol plaques, and inflammatory waste products accumulated in the blood.

Reduces Inflammation

Its greatest medical benefit is its ability to rapidly reduce chronic inflammation. By clearing inflammatory cytokines from the blood, it can provide rapid relief for chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, and autoimmune diseases.
In addition, by improving blood flow (viscosity), it enhances microcirculation, which in turn accelerates tissue healing.
Eliminate Pathogens

Get Rid of Pathogens

As a powerful oxidizing agent, ozone disrupts the envelope structure of viruses and destroys the cell walls of bacteria. Because EBO2 performs this process on a massive scale, it is a significant aid in combating chronic viral infections (such as Lyme disease and EBV).

Technical Analysis and Operating Principle of EBO2

EBO2 operates on a principle similar to a dialysis system rather than a simple injection. This method is often described as “blood lipid exchange.”
* Closed-Loop Filtration: Blood drawn from the patient’s arm is delivered to the device via a sterile, closed-loop system. There, it passes through a specialized membrane filter (typically resembling an inverted dialysis filter).
* Ozonation and Oxygenation: While the blood is being filtered, it is simultaneously enriched with a mixture of medical-grade ozone (O₃) and oxygen (O₂). This process enables the oxygenation of a much larger volume of blood (approximately 3–5 liters per session) compared to traditional methods.
* Waste Removal: During the filtration stage, heavy metals, microplastics, toxic waste, dead cell debris (“zombie cells”), and inflammatory proteins (cytokines) present in the blood are removed.
* Photomodulation (Light Therapy): Many EBO2 devices help inactivate pathogens (viruses, bacteria) in the blood and increase cellular energy (ATP) by passing the blood through UV light or light of different wavelengths before returning it to the body.

Important Note: EBO2 is an advanced medical procedure and must be performed by certified specialists in sterile clinical settings.

For which specific conditions or symptoms is the EBO2 device commonly used?

EBO2 (Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation) is a method in which blood is oxygenated, ozonated, and filtered outside the body; it is considered the most advanced form of traditional ozone therapy. It is also referred to as “ozone dialysis” because, during the procedure, the blood passes through a special filter to remove waste products.
This device and method are generally used as a supportive or complementary treatment for the following disease groups:
1. Cardiovascular (Heart and Vascular) Diseases
* Arteriosclerosis: Helps by improving blood flow and reducing plaque formation in the arterial walls.
* Circulatory Disorders: Used in peripheral artery diseases and circulation problems in the legs.
* Ischemia: Increases oxygenation in cases of insufficient oxygen supply to tissues.
2. Chronic Inflammatory and Autoimmune Diseases
* Rheumatic Diseases: It is preferred to reduce inflammation in conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis.
* Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue: Alleviates pain and fatigue by boosting energy production (mitochondrial function) in the body.
* Lupus and MS (Multiple Sclerosis): Provides support through its immune-modulating effect.
3. Infectious Diseases
* Chronic Viral Infections: It may help reduce viral load in cases such as Hepatitis B and C, Herpes (herpes virus), and HIV.
* Bacterial and Fungal Infections: Thanks to ozone’s powerful antimicrobial effect, it is used in resistant infections.

What You Need to Know About Treatment

  • A session lasts approximately 60–90 minutes.
    Three sessions are recommended, spaced one week apart. However, many patients notice significant improvements as early as the first session.
    In a single session, a large portion of the body’s blood (approximately 2–3 liters) is processed.
    Safety: Since it is a closed-system procedure, the risk of infection is minimal. However, it must be performed under the supervision of a doctor and nurse.
    It is generally a painless procedure. After the procedure, many patients feel energized immediately.
    A high-protein diet is recommended the night before the procedure and on the day of the procedure.

    Important Note: EBO2 should not be administered to individuals with favism (G6PD enzyme deficiency), hyperthyroidism (toxic goiter), or severe coagulation disorders. It is also not recommended during pregnancy.
