Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy – Natural Healing at the Cellular Level
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is a medical treatment method that uses oxygen in its purest form and under increased atmospheric pressure to activate the body’s self-healing powers and promote regeneration at the cellular level.
By inhaling almost 100% oxygen in a special pressure chamber, a state is created in which oxygen is transported more efficiently through the blood and directed into the body’s tissues and cells.
How does hyperbaric oxygen therapy work?
Normally, we breathe oxygen through the air, which contains about 21% oxygen. In hyperbaric oxygen therapy, the patient is treated in a special pressure chamber with an overpressure of usually 1.5 to 3 times the normal atmospheric pressure.
This allows the oxygen to be dissolved in the blood in a much higher concentration than under normal conditions. The oxygen penetrates not only via the red blood cells, but also directly into the plasma and thus also into tissues and cells that would be difficult to access with normal oxygen supply.
Where is hyperbaric oxygen therapy used?
HBOT has been successfully used in medicine for decades to treat a variety of diseases and ailments. Some of the most common areas of application are:
• Chronic wounds: In poorly healing wounds, such as diabetic foot ulcers, the increased oxygen promotes the formation of new tissue and accelerates healing.
• Decompression sickness: In diving accidents, hyperbaric oxygen therapy is traditionally used to dissolve nitrogen bubbles in the bloodstream.
• Infections: In infections that are difficult to treat, such as necrotizing fasciitis or osteomyelitis, HBOT improves the effectiveness of immune defenses and antibiotic therapy.
• Brain and nerve injuries: Studies show that HBOT can support regeneration after strokes, traumatic brain injuries or neurological diseases.
• Cancer therapy: In some cases, HBOT is used as a complementary measure to radiation therapy or chemotherapy to increase effectiveness and reduce side effects.
What effect does the therapy have on the body and in the cells?
At the core of hyperbaric oxygen therapy is the powerful supply of vital oxygen to the cells. The increased oxygen content in the blood leads to a variety of positive processes in the body:
- Cellular regeneration: Oxygen is a key to tissue regeneration and healing. Due to the high oxygen pressure, damaged cells can regenerate and renew themselves more quickly.
- Anti-inflammatory: Chronic inflammation can be reduced by increased oxygenation, which means faster healing and less pain.
- Improved blood circulation: The increased oxygen content in the blood dilates the vessels, improves microcirculation and ensures that even hard-to-reach regions of the body are better supplied.
- Boosting the immune defence: Oxygen is essential for the functioning of immune cells. HBOT strengthens the immune system and helps the body to fight infections more effectively.
The fundamental benefits of oxygen therapy:
- Accelerated healing: Whether after injuries, operations or chronic illnesses – HBOT promotes healing from within and accelerates regeneration.
- Improved physical and mental performance: Athletes and people who are exposed to high mental or physical stress use HBOT to regenerate faster, reduce fatigue and increase their performance.
- Anti-ageing effects: The increased oxygen supply promotes collagen production and can reduce visible signs of skin ageing. At the same time, the therapy has a cell-protecting and revitalising effect.
- Pain reduction: Chronic pain, especially in the case of inflammatory diseases, can be alleviated by the healing effect of oxygen.
- Stress reduction and mental clarity: A better oxygen supply to the brain can lead to greater clarity, concentration and an improved general sense of well-being.
