Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
The amount of a given gas that dissolves in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas in equilibrium with that liquid (This is known as Henry’s Law). Pressure is required for a gas (oxygen) to effectively dissolve into a liquid (blood plasma). When inside a hyperbaric environment, greater levels of oxygen are able to reach deep into the tissues of the body. This extra oxygen supply can help heal wounds and damaged tissue more quickly. The effects of HBOT are cumulative – with each session bringing an increase in healing activity.
The Science Behind Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
William Henry (chemist)
Another way to think about it
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is giving your cells the energy + nutrients they need to heal. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy will help your body heal at the cellular level. Benefits of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
It has been proven that healing in many areas of the body cannot occur without appropriate oxygen levels in the tissue. We typically don't think of ourselves as deficient in oxygen because we have a continual source. We don't think about our oxygen intake unless we are choking or have lung issues. Panic sets in because we know that we can't live minutes without it. The importance of oxygen is the same for healing. If we have a disease, pain, inflammation, fatigue, or loss of cognitive function, we can be sure our cells are begging for oxygen. We can not live without oxygen, and we can not heal without oxygen. It is our primal nutrient!
In cases such as circulatory problems, non-healing wounds, brain trauma, and strokes, adequate oxygen cannot reach the damaged area, and the body cannot function properly. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy enhances the body's natural healing ability by providing increased oxygenated blood flow to damaged tissues. It can improve one's quality of life in many areas where standard medicine is not working. Health conditions such as stroke, cancer recovery, head injuries, chronic fatigue, and much more have responded favorably to HBOT.
