Hyperbaric oxygen therapy increases delivery of oxygen to the body by providing pure oxygen in an enclosed space with higher than normal air pressure. The goal of hyperbaric oxygen therapy is to get more oxygen to tissues damaged by disease, injury or other factors. In a hyperbaric oxygen therapy chamber, the air pressure is increased 2 to 3 times higher than normal air pressure. The lungs can gather much more oxygen than would be possible breathing pure oxygen at normal air pressure.
The benefits of the therapy involves:
Removing trapped air bubbles.
Enhancing the growth of new blood vessels and tissues.
Supporting immune system activity.
Decompression sickness.
Carbon monoxide poisoning.
Serious trauma, such as a crushing injury, causing blocked blood flow.
Puss-filled pockets in the brain called brain abscesses.
Low counts of red blood cells from serious blood loss.
Sudden hearing loss from an unknown cause.
Overall therapy aims at providing better diffusion of oxygen into the tissues, leading to reduction in inflammation, repair of microtears in muscles, overall wellness in whole.
