Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy & What You Need to Know

When it comes to your health, breathing the freshest and most high-quality air can aid in many of the body’s restorative functions, which is why hyperbaric oxygen therapy has become such a popular longevity treatment. At London Regenerative Institute, we want you to have all the facts about this new and exciting method, so we’ve collected the key ones for you below.

What Exactly is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?

Although most commonly used in the past to treat deep-sea and scuba divers recovering from pressure change, hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is becoming a more popular method to aid everything from cell regeneration to wound healing. Even though the name sounds a little complicated, it simply means breathing pure oxygen through an HBOT device.

Boost Regeneration with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Did you know that the air we breathe actually only contains 21% oxygen? It’s true. However, oxygen is one of the main factors that enable our body and organs to function at their best. That’s why HBOT is so popular. It enables patients to breathe 100% pure oxygen through a hyperbaric chamber with increased air pressure to help the lungs collect more oxygen. This, in turn, can enable the body to fight against diseases, chronic ailments, and infections.

It’s crucial to note that breathing too much oxygen can actually hurt the body, which is why HBOT treatment is highly regulated by many health agencies around the world. The chambers employed are often designed to be large enough to hold a single person and, in some cases, entire rooms are constructed to house multiple patients simultaneously.

What Conditions Can HBOT Aid?

Today’s leading regulatory authorities have developed a list of some of the most common ailments that HBOT can help including:

• Severe Skin & Bone Infections
• Radiation Injuries
• Improving the Success of Skin Grafts
• Vision Loss Due to Blockage of Blood Flow
• Slow-Healing Wounds & Ulcers
• Gas & Air Bubbles in Blood Vessels
• Severe Anaemia where Blood Transfusions Can’t Be Used
• Severe/Large Burns Treated at a Specialised Burn Centre
• Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
• Bone-Crushing Injuries
• Decompression Sickness from Diving
• Gas Gangrene
• Random Hearing Loss

Always Consult a Physician or Expert Before Undergoing HBOT Therapy

Since every type of body is different, you will likely need an HBOT therapy program specifically designed for your needs. That’s why it’s always best to consult with a skilled longevity specialist or physician before undergoing HBOT treatment.
