Recently, I had a chance to go through Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, also known as Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, or HBOT. As you might already know, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is used to treat many different conditions and diseases in patients with various degrees of illnesses and injuries. This type of therapy is different from traditional treatment because it targets healing in the present, rather than wasting potential treatments.
Many people ask why they should consider hyperbaric oxygen therapy for their conditions and/or diseases. The truth is that there are a lot of reasons to use hyperbaric chambers for home treatments. If you're an athlete, like myself, then this therapy can improve your recovery process. The unique design of the hyperbaric chambers allows athletes to increase their workout and recovery time, while decreasing the risk of physical injury. A typical Olympic training session takes about 90 minutes, whereas the hyperbaric chambers can increase that time down to only sixty minutes. Athletes will also benefit from being able to increase their performance and recover quicker.
I have asthma and COPD and was curious to find out if hyperbaric oxygen therapy would help me, since both of those conditions are controlled by a pressurized environment. After my first session, I was surprised at how clear the air was and how much better I felt overall. It's important to point out that hyperbaric chambers don't cure the condition, but they can significantly reduce the symptoms and make the breathing easier for people with these conditions.
I have been taking allergy medications for years and am a bit wary of the side effects. I also wanted to look at how I would be able to bring my hyperbaric chamber home and use it when I was away from home for extended periods. Luckily I was able to schedule an appointment with my doctor to come and pick up my hyperbaric chamber and learn more about it. It was exciting to learn about all of the benefits of hyperbaric therapy near me could offer.
Hyperbaric chambers are typically used by asthmatics and people with respiratory problems as a way to increase their lung function. Oxygen deprivation is the underlying cause of many respiratory illnesses and by increasing your lung capacity you can greatly improve your health. The hyperbaric chamber is filled with a highly pressurized air, which allows you to increase the amount of oxygen in your body while simultaneously combating any toxins. After my first appointment I could barely contain the excitement and was eager to see what this could do for me. I couldn't wait to get my hands on my chamber and start taking the medication I need at home and away from work. A few days later, my doctor gave me the green light and I was ready to go home and begin my new life.
Hyperbaric therapy has been shown to have significant effects on the brain and on the body. As I mentioned earlier, hyperbaric oxygen therapy is used to increase the amount of oxygen in your body while fighting off toxins. During the therapy you are exposed to a pure oxygen environment which allows you to fight off many harmful bacteria and germs that naturally live in your lungs and digestive tracts. During this therapy you are also exposed to high levels of nitrogen and high pressure. This forces your body to produce new cells, stimulate immune response and increase the production of white blood cells.
White blood cells help in a number of ways, including the prevention of infections, an increase in oxygen saturation of the tissues, and the recruitment of healthy blood cells to the injured area. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy can increase the oxygen saturation of the tissues by as much as 40% within five minutes. This increase in the oxygen saturation and the recruitment of healthy red blood cells will play a critical role in healing.
Hyperbaric chambers have proven to be a very effective medical treatment for a large number of illnesses. When I had a severe leg wound a hyperbaric chamber healed the wound in two days, leaving it virtually free of infection. The hyperbaric chamber also reduced the pain, swelling, and duration of my leg injuries. If you suffer from any type of chronic or open wounds, I highly recommend that you use a hyperbaric chamber to speed up the healing process and to eliminate secondary infections. You'll be glad you did.
