Not many spine surgeons recommend ozone therapy nowadays, since the results are erratic. If u have slipped disc and pain radiation along lower limbs due to it, the line of treatment varies from conservative treatment with medications and exercises initially followed by caudal epidural blocks in selected cases and surgery for persistent or increasing symptoms..

Ozone therapy is not a standard treatment for slipped disc. The ideal treatment would depend on the symptoms and MRI picture . If pain is not reducing after proper physiotherapy and medications the options for treatment will be a selective Root Block or Endoscopic Discectomy.
