What is hyperbaric oxygen therapy?
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is a painless therapy that involves breathing 100% (pure) oxygen while in a specialized space called a hyperbaric chamber. The air pressure inside is raised to a level that is higher than normal, which helps the lungs to collect more oxygen. HBOT promotes the growth of new blood vessels, which can improve healing.
How does it work?
When you breathe air at sea level it contains about 21 % oxygen, but when you breathe pure oxygen in a hyperbaric chamber the oxygen concentration is 100%. Your body tissues need oxygen to function and heal properly. When you have an injury or illness that reduces the amount of oxygen that your tissues receive, HBOT can help you recover by increasing the oxygen concentration in your blood.
What are the benefits?
Increase oxygenation to the body’s tissues
Improve blood flow and circulation
Speed up athletic recovery
Repair muscles
Boost mental focus
Increase white blood cell count
Reduce pain and swelling
HBOT therapy increases oxygenation to all of the tissues of the body. This increase in oxygen has been shown to help eradicate spirochetes, which are the bacteria that cause Lyme disease and live in low oxygen environments. A study by researchers at Texas A&M University saw that 84.8% of patients who were treated with HBOT for Lyme disease showed significant improvement in symptoms, including a reduction in mental confusion, pain, depression and fatigue, with approximately 70% of patients showing a lasting benefit upon follow-up examination. Most patients begin to see an improvement in their symptoms after 10 sessions, and after 20 sessions are able to see a significant improvement in those symptoms.
Treatment of Lyme Disease
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is currently being used and studied as an effective form of treatment for lingering COVID-19 symptoms due to its ability to reverse hypoxia and neuro-inflammation, as well as improve tissue oxygenation. Studies and clinical trials are currently being conducted around the world to study the healing powers of HBOT for lingering COVID-19 symptoms with highly regarded medical professionals. Some of the symptoms that have shown to be improved are: fatigue, brain fog, headaches, dizziness, weakness, and persistent cough.
