Joint pain
- Knee osteoarthritis, case by case
- Chronic joint pain and stiffness
- Alongside exercise and physiotherapy
Molecular (ozone) therapy
Molecular (Ozone) Therapy in GurugramMedical ozone, used selectively.
Medical ozone is a carefully measured mix of ozone and oxygen. Doctors use it for a small number of specific problems, most often some kinds of joint and back pain. At Mitogenez it is used selectively, under medical supervision, and always as one part of a doctor-led plan.

The idea
In small, controlled amounts, ozone causes a brief, mild stress in the tissue it touches. The body responds by switching on some of its own protective and anti-inflammatory processes. That is the main theory behind its use. The best research so far is in knee osteoarthritis and some disc problems in the back, where injections may help ease pain. For most other uses, the evidence is limited or mixed.
How it works
Measured dose, targeted use.
- 01
A precise mix
A medical generator makes an exact, low concentration of ozone in oxygen. The dose is set by the doctor.
- 02
Delivered to the problem
Most often it is injected into or near a painful joint or spinal area. Other routes are used only in specific cases.
- 03
A local response
The brief, mild stress may calm inflammation and ease pain in the treated area. How well it works varies from person to person.
Your session
What to expect.
Session length
Typically 15–60 minutes, depending on the method
How it feels
Brief pressure or aching where it is given, which usually settles quickly
Course
A short series, set and reviewed by your doctor
Before you start
A physician assessment and screening tests
Who it may help
Is it right for you?
Ozone is not a general wellness treatment. It is used only where your doctor sees a clear reason.
Back pain
- Some disc-related back pain
- Nerve pain from a disc, case by case
- When other options are being weighed
Other uses
- Only for specific reasons your doctor explains
- Where the evidence is limited, we say so
- Always alongside your other care
Where it fits
A supportive therapy, inside a doctor-led plan.
Ozone is a supporting tool, not the plan. For joint or back pain, your doctor looks at the whole picture first, including strength, movement and weight. Ozone may be added to ease pain so that rehabilitation can move forward.
- 01
Assess
A doctor reviews your health and screens you for safety.
- 02
Plan
Medicine and lifestyle first; therapies only where they help.
- 03
Measure
Retests show what is working, and the plan adapts.
Safety first
Screened, supervised, explained.
- A physician screens you first. Ozone is not given in pregnancy, with uncontrolled hyperthyroidism, or with G6PD deficiency, which is tested for before any treatment into the blood.
- Ozone gas is never breathed in, because it irritates the lungs, and it is never injected directly into a vein as a gas.
- Common effects are short-lived pain, pressure or swelling where it was given. Rare but serious complications are why it is only given by trained doctors.
- Every treatment is given under medical supervision, with standard sterile technique.
Questions
Frequently asked questions.
It depends on the reason. For joint or back pain it is usually a small injection into or near the painful area, sometimes guided by ultrasound. Other methods exist, but they have weaker evidence and are only considered for specific reasons your doctor discusses with you.
Some clinics combine them, and a few small studies suggest the combination may help with knee pain. The evidence is still early. Your doctor will explain whether either treatment, or both, makes sense for you, alongside exercise and physiotherapy.
It varies. Some people with knee or back pain notice some relief within a few weeks of starting a course. Others notice little change. Your doctor reviews your progress rather than assuming it is working.
When people are properly screened and treatment is given by trained doctors with careful technique, serious problems are rare. It is not suitable for everyone, which is why we screen first, including testing for G6PD deficiency before any treatment into the blood.
It depends on what is being treated. Joint and back treatments are usually a short series. Your doctor recommends a course, reviews how you respond and stops if it is not helping.
