Which Ozone Approach is Right for Your Needs?

At Core Naturopathics, we harness the power of ozone to boost cellular energy, detoxification, and overall vitality. Ozone therapy has gained popularity for its ability to enhance oxygen delivery, reduce inflammation, and support the body’s natural healing processes.

Today, we’re exploring two advanced options: HOCATT transdermal ozone therapy and EBOO (Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation) therapy. We’ll break down what each is, how they work, their benefits, and key differences to help you decide which might align with your health goals.

[Please Note: unfortunately, EBOO is currently unlawful to administer or advertise for therapeutic purposes anywhere in Australia].

What is HOCATT Transdermal Ozone Therapy?

HOCATT stands for ‘Hyperthermic Ozone and Carbonic Acid Transdermal Technology’. It’s a non-invasive, multi-modality treatment delivered in a comfortable sauna-like chamber where you sit with your head outside for a relaxing 30-minute session.

Ear, vaginal and rectal infusions are also possible with HOCATT technology.

How It Works

The Process: You relax as the chamber fills with steam and far-infrared heat to gently raise your body temperature. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is introduced first, reacting with the steam to create carbonic acid, which opens pores and enhances oxygen absorption through the skin. Then, ozone (O3) is infused transdermally (absorbed through the skin), combined with other elements like microcurrents, full-spectrum light therapy, and essential oil infusions.

Key Benefits

Detoxification: Clears toxins, parasites, bacteria, fungi, and heavy metals from the body.

Energy and Circulation: Improves oxygen delivery at the cellular level, boosting mitochondrial function for more energy and better blood flow.

Immune Support: Strengthens your body’s defences, reduces inflammation, and aids recovery from stress or illness.

Other Perks: Enhances skin health, promotes relaxation, and supports anti-aging by increasing hydrogen levels for mitochondrial energy production.

What is EBOO Therapy?

EBOO, or ‘Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation’, is a more intensive, medical-grade ozone therapy that treats your blood directly outside the body. It’s an evolution of traditional ozone methods like Major Autohemotherapy (MAH) or 10-pass ozone, offering a continuous, high-volume approach.

HOCATT vs. EBOO: Key Differences

While both therapies leverage ozone’s antimicrobial and oxygenating properties to enhance cellular health, they differ in approach, intensity, and application:

Aspect	HOCATT	EBOO
Delivery Method	Transdermal (skin absorption); non-invasive sauna chamber.	Extracorporeal (blood drawn and treated); minimally invasive with IV access.
Session Time & Intensity	30 minutes; relaxing, multi-modality (ozone + heat, PEMF, lights).	60-90 minutes; more clinical, focused on high-volume blood treatment with filtration.
Ozone Exposure	Gentle, whole-body via skin; lower direct ozone dose but broad systemic effects.	High-volume, direct blood infusion; more potent for deep cleansing and pathogen targeting.
Benefits Focus	Detox, relaxation, energy boost, immune support; great for general wellness and stress relief.	Intensive detox, chronic disease management, immune modulation; ideal for infections, inflammation, and metabolic disorders.
Suitability	Beginners, those avoiding needles, or seeking spa-like maintenance; suitable for all ages with minimal contraindications.	Those with chronic conditions needing stronger intervention; may require medical supervision, not ideal for needle-phobes.
Potential Risks	Rare; mild detox symptoms like fatigue (resolves quickly).	Low but includes minor bruising from IV; monitored for safety in a clinical setting.

 

In essence, HOCATT is like a “wellness spa day” for your cells—holistic and accessible—while EBOO is a “deep medical reset” for targeted healing. Efficacy often depends on ozone delivery volume, so EBOO may edge out for severe cases, but HOCATT’s multi-tech synergy shines for preventive care.

Which Therapy is Right for You?

It depends on your goals:

Choose HOCATT if you’re overwhelmed by daily stress, want gentle detox, or seek an energy boost without invasiveness. It’s perfect for athletes recovering from training or anyone prioritizing relaxation and mitochondrial support.

Choose EBOO if you’re dealing with chronic fatigue, infections, autoimmune issues, or need a powerful blood cleanse. It’s often preferred for conditions like Lyme disease, mold toxicity, or cardiovascular support.

At Core Naturopathics, we tailor recommendations based on your unique needs—starting with testing like VO2 Max to assess your cellular energy. Many clients combine therapies like PEMF, Hyperbaric oxygen and Red Light therapy for optimal results.
