Hi,

Intra-articular Ozone Therapy is usually applied for Osteoarthritis.
Its usually given Intra-articularly inside the join.

Therapy in the spine in limited.
Disc disease is usually treated with Physiotherapy and Surgery.

Ozone does not have much benefit here.

Hope this answers your query.

Thanks and Regards

Dr Kiran
