What is hyperbaric oxygen therapy?
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is a treatment that can improve your physical and mental function by increasing the amount of oxygen in your blood. Oxygen is the most important chemical or nutrient your body needs: You can’t live if your body goes without
oxygen for just three to four minutes. Increasing your body’s supply of oxygen improves your health and wellness.
During HBOT, you sit in a highly pressurized environment or chamber with more oxygen than normal air. In fact, you breathe 40-90% oxygen in the chamber, as opposed to just 20% in any other environment. Since this oxygen can flow freely through your system
without the assistance of red blood cells, you can experience the treatment’s benefits even if you’re anemic.
What are the benefits of hyperbaric oxygen therapy?
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy can improve symptoms of a wide variety of medical conditions, but it also offers a number of general benefits that anyone can experience. Most of the physiological benefits of hyperbaric oxygen therapy are immediate, but some appear
within 24 hours of treatment. HBOT offers:
Pain reduction, Increased healing and tissue repair, Memory enhancement, Increased stem cells, Less bacteria, New blood vessel formation, Less inflammation, Improved blood flow, Muscle regeneration, Brain neuron repair, Detoxification, Increased immunity
There are countless specific conditions that HBOT can improve. This includes chronic diseases like diabetes, fibromyalgia, and arthritis, as well as acute conditions like altitude sickness and wounds.
How many hyperbaric oxygen therapy sessions do I need?
The number of HBOT sessions you need depends on your reason for getting the treatment at Viva Wellness Medical Group. Each session lasts for around 60 minutes.
