EBOO Therapy for Lyme Disease: Advanced Treatment London

For many, a Lyme disease diagnosis begins a cycle of antibiotics that offer only temporary relief. When symptoms persist—manifesting as chronic fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, and neurological issues—it often signals that the infection has adapted, not disappeared.

Standard treatment protocols frequently fall short because Borrelia burgdorferi, the bacterium responsible for Lyme disease, employs sophisticated survival mechanisms that conventional antibiotics struggle to penetrate.

Enter EBOO (Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation) therapy, the most advanced medical-grade blood filtration protocol available in London. Unlike standard treatment approaches that merely suppress symptoms, EBOO targets the root mechanisms that allow chronic Lyme infections to persist.

At IV Drip Clinic London, our Mayfair facility is one of the few clinics equipped to perform this advanced regenerative therapy safely and effectively, offering a new pathway for recovery when standard protocols have failed.

What Is EBOO Therapy? (And Why It's Not Standard Ozone Treatment)

Think of EBOO as dialysis for your immune system.

During treatment, your blood is drawn from one arm, passes through a specialised filtration device where it is cleansed of inflammatory debris, heavy metals, and fats, then super-oxygenated and ozonated before returning to your body through the other arm—all within a closed, sterile loop.

The critical distinction separates EBOO from standard IV ozone therapy (MAH - Major Autohemotherapy):

Standard MAH: Treats approximately 200ml of blood per session.
EBOO Therapy: Processes your entire blood volume—roughly five litres—in just 120 minutes.

This comprehensive blood treatment creates a fundamentally different therapeutic impact, particularly crucial for systemic infections like chronic Lyme disease. During an EBOO session at our London clinic, medical-grade ozone saturates your bloodstream whilst simultaneously filtering out the toxic byproducts that make chronic infections so debilitating.

This dual-action approach addresses both the infection itself and the inflammatory cascade it triggers throughout your body.

Why Standard Lyme Treatments Fail (And How EBOO Addresses Each Limitation)

Understanding why conventional approaches struggle with chronic Lyme reveals exactly why EBOO offers such promise. Borrelia bacteria aren't simply resistant to treatment—they have evolved multiple survival strategies that render standard protocols ineffective.

1. The Biofilm Barrier

The Problem: Borrelia bacteria create protective biofilm barriers—think of them as microscopic fortresses that shield colonies from antibiotic penetration. These biofilms act as impenetrable shields, allowing bacteria to survive despite aggressive antibiotic therapy.

The EBOO Solution: EBOO’s oxidative stress disrupts these protective barriers at a molecular level, stripping away the biofilm and exposing the hidden bacteria to your immune system's defences.

2. Antibiotic Resistance

The Problem: Years of antibiotic use often lead to treatment-resistant bacterial forms. Antibiotics target specific metabolic pathways, which bacteria can adapt around.

The EBOO Solution: Ozone uses a mechanical oxidation process rather than a metabolic one. It compromises the structural integrity of the bacterial cell wall. Bacteria cannot develop resistance to oxygen saturation or oxidative stress, making EBOO effective even against "superbugs."

3. Hidden Cyst Forms ("Sleeper Cells")

The Problem: When threatened, Borrelia can transform into dormant cyst forms (round bodies) that antibiotics cannot detect or reach. These "sleeper cells" remain inactive during treatment, then reactivate weeks or months later, triggering symptom relapses.

The EBOO Solution: EBOO creates an oxygen-rich environment where these anaerobic bacteria—organisms that hate oxygen—simply cannot survive, whether they are in an active or dormant state.

4. Weakened Immune Response

The Problem: Chronic infections exhaust your immune system, leaving your body unable to mount a defense.

The EBOO Solution: EBOO doesn't just eliminate bacteria; it fundamentally "wakes up" white blood cells, activating cytokine production and immune function that chronic illness has suppressed. This immune modulation helps your body hunt down remaining infection whilst supporting long-term resilience.

Why EBOO Reduces 'Die-Off' Reactions (Herxheimer Effect Explained)

Anyone familiar with Lyme disease treatment knows the Herxheimer reaction—that dreaded "die-off" period when you feel worse before feeling better. As antibiotics kill bacteria, dying organisms release endotoxins into your bloodstream. Your liver must process these toxins alone, often resulting in severe symptom flares: crushing fatigue, intensified pain, cognitive fog, and flu-like symptoms.

This is where EBOO demonstrates its most significant advantage over conventional treatments.

Because EBOO filters your blood whilst treating it, the therapy physically removes dead bacterial debris and toxins during the session itself. You are not simply killing bacteria and leaving your body to cope with the aftermath—you are actively removing the toxic load in real-time.

Comparison: Managing the Toxic Load

The Challenge: Traditional Antibiotic Treatment

Systemic Toxicity: Bacteria die and release endotoxins directly into the bloodstream.
Liver Burden: Your liver is forced to process 100% of these toxins independently, often becoming overwhelmed.
Severe Symptoms: Herxheimer reactions are common and often debilitating.
Slow Recovery: It can take weeks for the body to naturally clear the bacterial debris.
Interrupted Care: The severity of the reaction often forces patients to pause treatment, losing momentum.

The EBOO Advantage: Advanced Filtration

Controlled Elimination: Bacteria are eliminated via oxygenation while toxins are contained within the filtration loop.
Mechanical Cleansing: Toxins and debris are physically filtered out via the dialysis cartridge during the treatment.
Minimised Reaction: Real-time debris removal significantly reduces the toxic spike associated with "die-off."
Faster Stabilisation: Patients experience a much gentler, more manageable recovery curve.
Consistent Progress: Because side effects are reduced, patients can maintain their treatment schedule without interruption.

Patients at our London clinic consistently report smoother recovery experiences with EBOO compared to oral antibiotics or standard ozone injections. The filtration component transforms what is typically an intensely uncomfortable healing process into a manageable therapeutic journey.

Is EBOO Right for Your Chronic Lyme? (Assessment Criteria)

EBOO therapy offers particular promise for specific patient profiles. You may be an ideal candidate if you:

Have completed multiple rounds of antibiotics with minimal lasting improvement.
Experience persistent fatigue, brain fog, or joint pain months or years after initial treatment.
Have been diagnosed with co-infections such as Bartonella, Babesia, or Epstein-Barr virus.
Are seeking alternatives to long-term antibiotic use.
Face "Post-Treatment Lyme Disease Syndrome" (PTLDS) with ongoing symptoms despite negative test results.
Experience high viral loads or unexplained chronic fatigue that conventional medicine cannot address.

Important: Medical Consultation Required

EBOO is a sophisticated medical procedure, not a wellness treatment. At our Mayfair clinic, every candidate undergoes a comprehensive medical assessment to ensure treatment suitability. Our medical team evaluates your health history, current symptoms, co-infections, and overall wellness status before designing a personalised EBOO protocol.

This thorough approach ensures both safety and efficacy. EBOO creates powerful physiological changes—beneficial when properly administered, but requiring expert medical oversight throughout the treatment series.

What to Expect During EBOO Treatment at Our Mayfair Clinic

Many Lyme patients feel anxious about trying new treatments after years of disappointing results. Understanding the EBOO process helps reduce this apprehension whilst setting realistic expectations.

1. Pre-Treatment Consultation and Bloodwork

Your journey begins with a comprehensive doctor consultation (£450, which is deducted from your first EBOO treatment cost if you proceed). Our medical team reviews your complete health history, assesses current symptoms, and determines whether EBOO aligns with your therapeutic goals. Baseline bloodwork identifies any contraindications whilst establishing markers to track your progress.

2. Treatment Day Experience

EBOO sessions at IV Drip Clinic London last approximately 120 minutes. You will recline comfortably whilst sterile cannulas are placed in each arm—similar to a standard blood draw. The sensation resembles giving blood; most patients report minimal discomfort. During treatment, you are free to read, work on a laptop, or simply relax in our private treatment rooms.

3. Immediate Post-Treatment and Recovery

Most patients resume normal activities immediately following treatment. Some report feeling energised within hours; others experience gentle fatigue as their body processes the therapeutic changes. This varies by individual and doesn't indicate treatment success or failure—simply your body's unique response pattern.

4. Treatment Series and Timeline

Chronic Lyme typically requires a series of 3-5 EBOO sessions, though protocols are personalised based on infection severity, symptom duration, and individual response. Sessions are generally spaced 1-2 weeks apart, allowing your body to process each treatment whilst maintaining therapeutic momentum.

Complementary Therapies for Faster Recovery

EBOO works powerfully as a standalone treatment, yet many patients achieve optimal results by combining it with supportive IV therapies that address the multifaceted impact of chronic infection.

Glutathione IV: Often called the "Master Antioxidant," Glutathione supports your liver during the detoxification process. It enhances your body's ability to process and eliminate the bacterial debris and inflammatory compounds released during EBOO treatment.
NAD+ IV Therapy: Chronic Lyme infection depletes cellular energy reserves. NAD+ Therapy restores mitochondrial energy production, helping to lift the "crushing fatigue" associated with Lyme. Many patients report that whilst EBOO eliminates the infection, NAD+ helps rebuild the energy required for life.
High-Dose Vitamin C IV: Provides immune resilience and antioxidant support, working synergistically with EBOO to maintain the oxygen-rich environment hostile to Borrelia whilst supporting tissue repair.

Our medical team designs comprehensive treatment protocols that address not just the infection itself, but the systemic depletion chronic illness creates.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many EBOO sessions are typically required for Lyme disease?

The optimal number of sessions varies based on infection duration, symptom severity, and presence of co-infections. Our medical team monitors your response and adjusts the treatment plan accordingly. Some patients require ongoing maintenance sessions to sustain results.

Is EBOO therapy painful?

EBOO involves standard venous access similar to a routine blood draw. Most patients report minimal discomfort during cannula placement. Once treatment begins, you simply relax for approximately 120 minutes whilst your blood is processed. The procedure is considerably more comfortable than many patients anticipate.

Can I combine EBOO with my current antibiotic prescription?

Yes, EBOO often works synergistically with antibiotic therapy. The treatment can enhance antibiotic effectiveness by breaking down biofilms and improving drug penetration. However, any combination therapy requires strict medical oversight. During your consultation, our doctor will review your current medications and design an integrated approach if appropriate.

How much does EBOO therapy for Lyme disease cost in London?

EBOO treatment at IV Drip Clinic London costs £1,750 per session (introductory rate). The required doctor consultation is £450, which is fully deducted from your first treatment cost if you proceed with therapy. During your consultation, our medical team provides a personalised treatment plan with transparent pricing based on your specific protocol needs.
