What is Oxygen Therapy?

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is also referred to as: High Dosage Oxygen Therapy (HDOT) Hyperbaric Oxygenation Treatment &, to a lesser extent, High Density Oxygen Therapy.

HBOT refers to breathing 100% oxygen under pressure (in a barochamber – which is like a small room) for one hour, to correct a lack of oxygen in the tissues and cells of the body. It’s important to understand that, on an everyday basis, we are only breathing about 21% oxygen.

Why is pressure necessary?

As oxygen is poorly soluble in the blood, in order to increase oxygen levels significantly, it is also necessary to use a higher pressure. The higher pressure acts to help more oxygen dissolve in the blood, which allows more oxygenated blood to reach the impaired regions and/or body parts – thus helping to aid and/or resolve the health issue.

What exactly does Oxygen Therapy do?

HBOT increases the ability of white blood cells to destroy bacteria, stimulates greater production of fibroblasts (which are cells that are necessary for wound healing), promotes growth of new blood vessels, and the stimulation of damaged cells, such as brain neurons. This super oxygen saturation of tissue stops the spread of certain toxins and enhances the killing of bacteria, speeding the healing of difficult or antibiotic-resistant infections. That’s why oxygen, administered with increased pressure, can aid in treating many serious health problems and injuries.

What conditions does Oxygen Therapy help manage?

Here are a few examples of the conditions that HBOT can help manage – please note: this is, by no means, an exhaustive list:

Multiple Sclerosis (M.S), Stroke, Migraine Cerebral Palsy, Parkinson’s Disease, Arthritis, Respiratory Diseases, Circulatory Disorders,
Decompression Illness, Severe Carbon Monoxide Poisoning, Brain Trauma, Dementia Sport Injuries, Smoke Inhalation, Chronic wounds, Burns & some infections, Diabetic Foot Ulcers Lupus, Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (M.E/C.F.S), Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lyme Disease, Fibromyalgia, Autism, tissue repair after radiotherapy treatment, assist with dealing with side effects of cancer treatment (less pain, more energy and less brain fog), aid wound healing after reconstructive Surgery.

What are the benefits of HBOT?

Some reported benefits of the treatment include – improvements in the following areas:

Circulation, Vision, Speech Memory & concentration Balance & co-ordination Bladder & Bowel control Pain, inflammation & stress levels, Energy levels Mood & sense of well being, Reduction in injury recovery time, Sleep & sleep quality.

In Multiple Sclerosis (M.S) specifically, HBOT can help with the management of symptoms (as specified above) and with long-term regular use, HBOT can help to slow down the progression of symptoms
