How Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Improves Recovery Results
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy, or HBOT, delivers high levels of oxygen to tissues throughout the body, providing a wealth of benefits. The high oxygen enhances the body’s regenerative abilities; allowing it to recover and respond to medical treatments like radiation therapy and surgery. This makes HBOT a versatile adjunct therapeutic in treatment, management, or recovery from […]
HBOT and Healing
HBOT, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, is a treatment in which a person is exposed to pure oxygen at increased atmospheric pressure. The increased oxygen and pressure saturates red blood cells and blood plasma with more oxygen than normal. This treatment is commonly used to treat decompression sickness (“the bends”), air embolisms, and carbon monoxide poisoning. HBOT […]
Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) treats a variety of medical conditions ranging from bacterial infections to arterial air embolisms. The use of hyperbaric oxygen has had increasing positive outcomes in clinical practice. Physicians are becoming continually more aware of its therapeutic mechanisms. HBOT also prolongs safe anesthesia and circulatory arrest during surgery (Gill, 2004). Hospitals typically […]
