If anyone knows or has heard anything about it, please let me know!

I've just looked at their website and I think you must be mad!!! Ozone is NOT the same as oxygen, Oxygen is O2, Ozone is O3 that does not mean the ozone is "supercharged" oxygen it actually means that Ozone is toxic. In the UK the maximum permissable exposure level over a 15min reference period is 0.2ppm (parts per million).
Here is a quote from a Health and Safety Executive publication "Since ozone is a highly reactive substance, any adverse health effects will be
found essentially at the sites of initial contact: the respiratory tract (nose, throat and
airways), the lungs, and at higher concentrations, the eyes. The principal health
effects are produced by irritation of and damage to the small airways of the lung.
However, people have considerable variation in sensitivity.

10 Uncontrolled exposure to relatively high levels of ozone could lead to more
severe health effects, including lung damage. At the levels of exposure likely to be
normally found in the workplace the main concern is irritation of the (upper) airways,
characterised by coughing and a feeling of tightness in the chest.
11 This guidance – on establishing effective risk management measures for
controlling exposure to ozone – focuses on the control of exposure to levels at which
any health effects, if they did occur, would not be significant (see paragraph 28). "
If that is not enough to put you off then consider the fact that there are loads of products out there designed to remove excess ozone from the air in offices and industrial buildings where is is produced as a by product of their activities.
Of course you may wish to finish off your ailing mother, if so go ahead, blow £1,000 on something that will produce a toxic gas.
