What Is EBOO Therapy? Everything You Need to Know Before Your First Session

You’ve probably heard about ozone therapy. Maybe a friend swears by it, or you stumbled across it while desperately searching for answers to chronic fatigue, brain fog, or a condition that conventional medicine hasn’t been able to crack.

But then you saw the words "EBOO therapy" and thought — okay, what is that?

Good question. Because EBOO and standard ozone therapy are not the same thing. Not even close. And if you’re considering ozone treatment, understanding the difference could genuinely change which option is right for you.

This is the complete, plain-English guide to EBOO therapy — what it is, how it works, who it’s for, and what you can realistically expect.

The Short Answer: What Is EBOO Therapy?

EBOO stands for Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation.

In plain language: it’s a process where your blood is taken outside of your body, passed through a medical-grade filtration and ozonation system, and then returned to you — cleaner, more oxygenated, and loaded with the molecular signals your cells need to heal.

Think of it like a deep-clean dialysis for your entire circulatory system.

It’s one of the most sophisticated blood purification protocols available in functional and regenerative medicine today — and it’s getting a lot of attention for good reason.

How EBOO Actually Works: Step by Step

Here’s what happens during an EBOO session at Ecore Wellness:

Step 1

Blood is drawn via IV.

Using sterile, single-use equipment, blood is drawn from a vein and enters the EBOO circuit.

Step 2

Hollow-fiber filtration.

This is the game-changer. Inside the EBOO device are thousands of microscopic hollow fibers. Physical debris is trapped and separated. Notably, this filtration process targets and removes microplastics, heavy metals, mold toxins, and environmental pollutants that have accumulated in the bloodstream.

Step 3

Ozone & oxygen are infused.

Blood is exposed to medical-grade ozone, triggering a cascade of beneficial reactions:

  • Red blood cells become oxygen-carrying.
  • Antioxidant pathways are activated.
  • Pathogen membranes are disrupted.
  • Inflammatory cytokines are modulated.
Step 4

Blood returns to your body.

Clean, oxygenated, and energized blood re-enters your circulation. The whole session takes approximately 60 to 90 minutes.

What Makes EBOO Different from Regular Ozone Therapy?

Volume Treated

Traditional MAH treats a small, fixed amount of blood per session. EBOO processes a significantly larger volume tailored to the individual, treating a major portion of your total blood volume.

Physical Filtration

MAH has no physical filtration step. EBOO physically removes toxins, debris, and microplastics through the advanced hollow-fiber membrane.

Toxin Removal

In traditional therapy, neutralized pathogen byproducts remain in circulation. Because EBOO filters the blood directly, this material is removed, often leading to fewer side effects.

Who Is EBOO Therapy For?

At Ecore Wellness, we find it particularly valuable for:

  • Chronic Fatigue & Fibromyalgia
  • Mold Toxicity & CIRS – Directly filtering the blood to reduce mycotoxin burden.
  • Long COVID & Post-Viral Syndromes – Targeting persistent spike proteins and micro-clots.
  • Chronic Lyme Disease – Combining ozone’s antimicrobial properties with physical filtration.
  • Heavy Metal & Microplastic Toxicity – Complementing traditional detox protocols.
  • Autoimmune Conditions – Reducing the inflammatory load on the immune system.

How Many Sessions Will You Need?

This varies based on your health history and goals. While some use EBOO for general maintenance, for those dealing with chronic illness—such as mold, Lyme, or Long COVID—we typically find that a protocol of 3 to 6 sessions is most beneficial to achieve significant, lasting results.

These are generally spaced one to two weeks apart. At Ecore Wellness, EBOO is integrated into a broader functional medicine protocol including nutrition and drainage support to ensure the best outcomes.

Is EBOO Safe?

When performed by a trained medical professional using sterile, single-use equipment, EBOO has a strong safety profile. We perform a thorough health evaluation before treatment to screen for contraindications like G6PD deficiency or active bleeding disorders.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is EBOO the same as dialysis?

No. Dialysis is a life-sustaining treatment for kidney failure. EBOO is an elective regenerative therapy focused on purification and immune modulation.

How soon will I feel results?

Some notice mental clarity within days; for others, results build gradually over the course of the 3 to 6 session protocol.

Can EBOO be combined with other therapies?

Absolutely. It is frequently paired with NAD+ infusions, IV glutathione, and peptide therapy for comprehensive results.
