Why There is Growing Interest in Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Hyperbaric Oxygen TherapyAlthough oxygen therapy has been around since the late 1700’s it’s an increasingly sought-after therapy for multiple reasons.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HOBT) is a medical therapy that delivers two to three times the amount of oxygen of atmospheric pressure at sea level. Oxygen is administered at 100% saturation directly to the patient in a chamber.

When high saturation levels of life-sustaining oxygen are delivered to the tissues and organs, this increases the partial pressure of oxygen at the cellular level and accelerates the regenerative effects and amplifies recovery from numerous conditions.

With hyperbaric oxygen, enough molecular oxygen can be dissolved into a patient’s blood stream and tissues to fulfill all metabolic necessities. Breathing 100% oxygen at 1, 2 or 3 atmospheres results in 2,4 and 6 ml of oxygen in solution per 100 ml of blood, respectively. Patients are usually treated with 1.2 to 3.0 times atmospheric pressure for 30 to 90 minutes, which is equivalent to the pressure that a diver is exposed to at a depth of between 5 and 20 meters underwater.1

If you start to research the effects of HBOT, you will discover story after story of patients that have been successfully treated, patients with disorders that have improved, as well as patients’ conditions that have completely reversed. Many are suggesting it as a highly recommended therapy.

There are several FDA approved conditions for HBOT, but at a physician request, it can be used for multiple off-label disorders.

Patients that want to explore the alternative methods of HBOT for conditions such as stroke, traumatic brain injury, autism, and Lyme disease, to name a few, have the right to do so. Numerous individuals all over the world have benefited from the regenerative effects of HBOT.
