Don't Let Winter Weaken You: A Guide to Ozone and IV Immunity Boosts

Dec 17, 2025
Winter often brings cozy nights, warm meals, and a higher chance of feeling run-down. Shorter days, colder temperatures, and increased exposure to seasonal germs can leave your immune system in need of extra support.

While healthy habits such as nutrition, sleep, and stress management remain essential, many people benefit from additional tools to help keep their bodies resilient during the winter. That’s where solutions like ozone therapy and immune-supporting IV nutrient infusions come in.

At Market Place Naturopathic in downtown Seattle, Washington, we focus on therapies that complement your body’s natural defenses. Here’s how these popular winter wellness options can help you stay energized, strong, and ready for the season.

Understanding ozone therapy

Ozone therapy involves introducing medical-grade ozone (a highly reactive form of oxygen) into the body through specific, controlled methods. At Market Place Naturopathic, we focus on ozone intravenous therapy combined with UV light.

Alena Zweben, ND, and Sarah Klein, ND, use it with the intention of supporting circulation, encouraging antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity, and promoting a balanced immune response.

Many of our patients consider ozone therapy during the winter months for its potential to help their bodies better manage stressors and environmental challenges. When performed by trained professionals, ozone therapy is tailored to individual needs, making it a uniquely personalized wellness approach.

Why IV immunity boosts are popular during winter

IV nutrient therapy delivers vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and hydration directly into the bloodstream. This method bypasses the digestive process, allowing for quick absorption.

During winter, immune-supportive formulas may include nutrients such as vitamin C, zinc, B complex vitamins, glutathione, and other antioxidants. These nutrients play various roles in overall cellular function and immune health.

Many people who feel depleted, travel often, or struggle with low energy during the cold months find IV therapy a convenient way to replenish essential nutrients.

A naturopathic approach to winter wellness

At Market Place Naturopathic, we emphasize whole-body wellness. Before recommending ozone therapy or IV nutrient therapy, we assess your sleep, nutrition, digestion, stress levels, and lifestyle habits.

These foundational elements are essential for building a strong immune system. When appropriate, we may suggest ozone or IV therapy as additions — not replacements — to a holistic wellness plan.

This personalized approach helps ensure that your care supports long-term well-being rather than just short-term relief.

Choosing the right approach for you

Not everyone needs the same type of support during winter. Some individuals respond well to antioxidant-focused IV therapy, while others benefit from the circulation-supporting aspects of ozone therapy.

An individualized assessment helps us determine the best fit for your body and health goals.

Winter doesn’t have to drain your energy or weaken your defenses. If you’re curious about whether ozone therapy or immune-focused IV nutrient therapy could enhance your winter wellness routine, our team is here to provide guidance and customized care.
