Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy - Everything You Need To Know!

Are you familiar with hyperbaric oxygen therapy? This treatment involves breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized environment and has been used for decades to treat various conditions. In this blog post, we will explore the benefits of hyperbaric oxygen therapy and how MediPro Holistic Health can provide this service to help improve your health. So sit back, relax, and let's dive into the world of hyperbaric oxygen therapy!

What Is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a non-invasive treatment that involves breathing pure oxygen while in a pressurized environment. The treatment increases the amount of oxygen in your bloodstream, which can help improve circulation and promote healing.

During hyperbaric oxygen therapy, you will lie down in a chamber that is pressurized to two or three times the normal atmospheric pressure. You may feel some discomfort in your ears as the pressure changes, but this can be relieved by yawning or swallowing.

Once inside the chamber, you will breathe 100% pure oxygen through a mask or hood for up to two hours at a time. Most people find the experience relaxing and report feeling better after just one session.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy has been shown to be an effective treatment option for several conditions, and it's worth exploring with your healthcare provider if you think it might benefit you.

What Conditions Can It Treat?

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a versatile treatment that has been used for various conditions, from scuba diving-related decompression sickness to chronic wounds. The therapy works by delivering pure oxygen to the body in a pressurized environment, which increases the amount of oxygen that can dissolve into the bloodstream. This increased oxygen availability promotes healing and fights infection.

One condition treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy is serious infections. By increasing the amount of oxygen delivered to tissues affected by an infection, hyperbaric therapy helps fight off bacteria and promote wound healing.

The procedure can also be used to address decompression sickness in scuba divers.

Another condition treated with this therapy is bubbles of air in blood vessels or embolisms. Hyperbaric treatment can help reduce bubble size and prevent further damage caused by blockages in blood flow.

Patients with wounds that may not heal due to diabetes or radiation injury can also benefit from hyperbaric therapy. The increased oxygen levels provided during each session stimulate new tissue growth and promote faster wound healing.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy has proven beneficial for many medical conditions beyond just scuba diving injuries.
