Alternative Therapies
At Arizona Animal Wellness Center, we're committed to providing comprehensive care for your beloved pet. Our integrative approach combines traditional veterinary medicine with alternative therapies to address a wide range of health concerns.
We know in the past, finding veterinarians that offer holistic and/or alternative therapies has been difficult, particularly ones that are not booked months ahead or they are not accepting new patients. But, not anymore!

We are pleased to announce that we are now offering ozone therapy as a new service for our patients. Ozone therapy is a safe and effective form of integrative veterinary medicine that can be used to treat a variety of conditions in pets.
What is ozone therapy?
Ozone therapy is a form of integrative veterinary medicine that involves the use of medical-grade ozone gas to treat a variety of conditions. Ozone is a molecule made up of three oxygen atoms (O3). When introduced into the body, ozone can stimulate the immune system, reduce inflammation, and promote healing.
How does ozone therapy work?
The exact mechanisms of how ozone therapy works are still being studied, but it is believed to work in a number of ways, including:
-
Stimulating the immune system: Ozone can help to activate white blood cells, which are the body's natural defense system against infection and disease.
-
Reducing inflammation: Ozone can help to reduce inflammation, which is a major factor in many pet health problems.
-
Promoting healing: Ozone can help to improve blood flow and oxygen delivery to tissues, which can promote healing.
Benefits of ozone therapy for pets:
Ozone therapy can be used to treat a variety of conditions in pets, including:
-
Arthritis
-
Allergies
-
Skin conditions
-
Wound healing
-
Autoimmune diseases
-
