What is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy, or HBO therapy, is a unique treatment that aids in recovery from conditions like tissue damage and infections. A patient undergoing therapy is placed in a hyperbaric chamber. While inside, the patient receives pure oxygen, which is at a higher level of pressure than normal oxygen. This increased amount of oxygen helps the body heal from conditions it may not be able to fight alone. HBO therapy is also used to treat less common conditions like bone infections and decompression sickness.

FAQs About Hyperbaric Oxygen
What is Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy used to treat?
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is often used to treat conditions like inflammation, heart conditions, chronic infections, long COVID, concussions, and even mental health concerns like strokes, Alzheimer's, dementia, and autism. Breathing in pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber increases the amount of oxygen your body's tissues are able to absorb. This increased oxygen level helps your body heal and fight off the ailments affecting it.
Who cannot have hyperbaric oxygen therapy?
People whose ears are frequently clogged and are not able to be cleaned should avoid HBOT. When your ears are clogged, they cannot equalize pressure. In a hyperbaric oxygen chamber, this inability to equalize pressure can cause damage to the middle ear.
How long do you stay in a hyperbaric chamber?
The length of time depends on the patient's health. A typical length is 45 minutes but may be longer if needed. People who experience certain conditions or show side effects after being inside the chamber may be given less time inside.
Does a hyperbaric chamber help with weight loss?
While time in a hyperbaric chamber can increase your energy levels and metabolism, it is not a sole solution for weight loss. When used in conjunction with proper exercise and nutrition, though, spending some time in a hyperbaric chamber can have a positive impact on your weight.
