What is happening during Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Imagine a therapy that harnesses the incredible potential of oxygen to supercharge your body’s natural healing abilities. Well, that’s precisely what happens during Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, or HBOT. Let’s dive into the fascinating world of HBOT and uncover the magic that takes place within those pressurized chambers.

Oxygen, Pressure, and Healing

At its core, HBOT involves breathing in pure oxygen under increased pressure. Normally, your blood’s plasma contains about 3% oxygen. But during HBOT, this oxygen level skyrockets to a whopping 97%! This increased oxygen saturation allows something extraordinary to happen: oxygen can now penetrate tissues up to 400% deeper than it normally would. This oxygen-rich environment becomes a healing haven for tissues that need it most.

Boosting Mitochondrial Function

In many neurological conditions, mitochondrial dysfunction is a common culprit. These microscopic powerhouses within your cells play a crucial role in energy production. HBOT has been shown to work wonders here. Studies indicate that after HBOT sessions, mitochondrial function improves significantly. This improvement can be a game-changer, especially for conditions affecting brain health.

Stem Cell Mobilization

Stem cells are like the superheroes of your body, capable of regenerating and repairing damaged tissue. HBOT seems to have a unique superpower too: it mobilizes stem cells. In one study, HBOT sessions led to an 800% increase in circulating stem cells in human blood. This remarkable boost in stem cells is a promising sign for tissue healing and overall health.

Fighting Inflammation

Inflammation can be a real troublemaker when it comes to healing. It reduces the ability of your tissues to extract oxygen from the blood, hindering the healing process. HBOT steps in as a powerful ally, reducing inflammation. This means that chronic and hard-to-treat conditions, ranging from back pain to brain injuries and Lyme’s disease, could find relief through this therapy.

A Wide Range of Benefits

HBOT’s benefits aren’t limited to one condition. Research suggests that a pressure range of 1.3 to 1.5 ATA is most effective for neurological conditions. This includes conditions like traumatic brain injuries, stroke, autoimmune disorders like Lyme’s disease, developmental disorders on the autism spectrum, chronic pain, multiple sclerosis, headaches, Alzheimer’s disease, Crohn’s disease, movement disorders, and overall brain wellness.

Most of the research has found that 1.3-1.5 ATA is the most effective for neurological conditions.
