The Benefits of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy A – Z

If the atmospheric pressure of oxygen is high, oxygen will not only readily bind with hemoglobin in red blood cells, the content of dissolved oxygen will be increased, transport across capillary walls will efficient, free movement into the smallest areas of the circulatory systems will become easier and cellular activity will also be increased.

In hyperbaric oxygen therapy, purified oxygen is inhaled under high atmospheric conditions, increasing oxygen concentration within the body and alleviating the effects of oxygen deficiency.

IT HAS LONG BEEN KNOWN THAT HEALING MANY AREAS OF THE BODY CANNOT TAKE PLACE WITHOUT APPROPRIATE OXYGEN LEVELS IN THE TISSUE.

Most illnesses and injuries occur, and often linger, at the cellular or tissue level. In many cases, such as: circulatory problems; non-healing wounds; and strokes, adequate oxygen cannot reach the damaged area and the body’s natural healing ability is unable to function properly. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy provides this extra oxygen naturally and with minimal side effects.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy improves the quality of life of the patient in many areas when standard medicine is not working. Many conditions such as stroke, cerebral palsy, head injuries, and chronic fatigue have responded favorably to HBOT.
