EBO3 — short for Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation — is one of the most talked-about wellness protocols offered at EBO2 Therapy and Wellness in Rancho Palos Verdes. Patients often ask how it works at a cellular level and what to expect from a course of sessions.
What EBO3 is
During an EBO3 session, blood is gently circulated through a sterile, single-use filter outside the body. It is enriched with medical-grade oxygen and passed in front of UV light before being returned. The entire process is performed under medical supervision.
Cellular pathways EBO3 is designed to support
Patients often describe EBO3 as a reset for how their body feels day to day. From a cellular standpoint, the protocol is designed to support oxygen utilization, healthy inflammatory balance, and the body's own detoxification pathways.
Oxygen utilization
By enriching blood with oxygen, EBO3 is intended to support efficient oxygen delivery and use at the cellular level.
Balanced inflammatory response
Many patients pursue EBO3 as part of a broader plan focused on supporting a balanced inflammatory response over time.
Natural detoxification
EBO3 is often layered with IV therapy and EBO3 protocols to support the body's own detoxification systems.
What to expect during your session
A typical EBO3 session at our Rancho Palos Verdes clinic runs about 60 to 90 minutes. You relax in a private treatment room while a small team monitors the entire session. Most patients pair EBO3 with hydration and a brief recovery period afterward.
Who EBO3 may be appropriate for
Candidacy is determined during a one-on-one consultation that reviews your medical history, current goals, and other therapies you are using. EBO3 is not appropriate for everyone, and our team will walk you through whether it is a good fit.
If you are curious whether EBO3 belongs in your wellness plan, the best next step is a complimentary consultation with our team in Rancho Palos Verdes.

ReadEBO3 is a clinic-branded wellness protocol. These references describe ozone's regulatory context and the state of the published evidence; they do not establish EBO3 as a treatment for any disease, and ozone therapy is not FDA-approved. Published EBOO/ozone literature is heterogeneous, largely preliminary or uncontrolled, and mostly of low or very-low certainty.
