Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (mHBOT) operates on the principle of exposing the body to increased atmospheric pressure while breathing pure oxygen in a controlled environment.
During an mHBOT session, individuals enter a specially designed chamber where the air pressure is increased. This allows the lungs to take in a higher concentration of oxygen, which is then dissolved into the bloodstream at an elevated level. The increased oxygen delivery to tissues and cells promotes various beneficial physiological effects, supporting cellular metabolism, stimulating the production of growth factors, and contributing to the body’s natural healing processes.
request an appointment- Stress Reduction: Chronic stress can contribute to fatigue and reduced energy levels. Users of mHBOT have reported feelings of relaxation and stress reduction during and after sessions, which could positively impact overall energy levels.
- Reduced Inflammation: Inflammation is a natural response to injury or infection, but excessive inflammation can lead to chronic health issues. mHBOT has anti-inflammatory effects, helping to reduce swelling and discomfort associated with various conditions.
- Chronic Health Conditions: mHBOT has shown promise in assisting various chronic health conditions. Evidence suggests the following chronic health conditions could benefit from mHBOT: chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), fibromyalgia, Lyme disease, autoimmune conditions, such as MS and rheumatoid arthritis, and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
- Improved Cognitive Function: The brain is highly sensitive to changes in oxygen levels. By increasing oxygen delivery to the brain, mHBOT has shown potential in enhancing cognitive function, concentration, and memory.
- Chronic Pain Management: Conditions associated with chronic pain, such as fibromyalgia and complex regional pain syndrome, may find relief through HBOT. The therapy’s anti-inflammatory effects and promotion of tissue repair contribute to pain reduction.
- Enhanced Immune Response: Adequate oxygen is vital for the proper functioning of immune cells. With increased oxygen availability, the immune system becomes more efficient, aiding in the body’s ability to fight infections and diseases.
- Support for Neurological Conditions: Research suggests that mHBOT may benefit individuals with certain neurological conditions, such as traumatic brain injuries, stroke, and neurodegenerative disorders. The therapy promotes neuroplasticity and neuronal repair.
- Enhanced Athletic Performance and Recovery: Athletes seeking an edge in performance and a faster recovery from intense training sessions may find benefits in HBOT. The increased oxygen levels aid in reducing muscle fatigue and promoting tissue repair.
It’s important to note that while HBOT at 1.3 ATA shows promising benefits, individual responses may vary. Consultation with healthcare professionals is crucial to determine the appropriateness of hyperbaric oxygen therapy for specific health conditions.
