Anti-Aging

When you undergo hyperbaric oxygen therapy, your body takes advantage of the abundance of oxygen to give you a myriad of powerful anti-aging benefits. HBOT works by exposing the body to an atmosphere of 100% oxygen, in an enclosed chamber, where the atmospheric pressure is increased and controlled. During HBOT treatment, your lungs can take in up to three times more oxygen, allowing it to be picked up via the bloodstream and transported everywhere in the body.

Science indicates strongly that the extra oxygen delivered through HBOT has remarkable effects on the natural healing process and rejuvenation of the body. By flushing tissues with high levels of oxygen, you may experience benefits like increased stem cell activation, faster bone and cartilage regeneration, reduced muscle fatigue, and greater energy. It can lead to a better immune system, cognitive enhancement, skin rejuvenation, greater overall health, and better quality of life.

As we age, the human immune system becomes less effective at tackling infections and viruses, and also less responsive to vaccinations. In medical terms, this is called immunosenescence: the gradual decrease in immune function that comes with age. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is revolutionary in elevating the body’s natural immune defenses. By giving your body at least 10–15 times its normal supply of oxygen, you receive a boost in your supply of circulating stem cells and improved function of white blood cells, which are key in fighting off infection and bacteria. Since HBOT increases the oxygen concentration in the tissues, this also helps the tissues resist infection. Laboratory trials have also shown the ability of HBOT to reduce autoimmune symptoms, which become more common in elderly individuals. Therefore, the high-oxygen environment of an HBOT chamber can significantly improve the efficiency and effectiveness of your body’s natural immune response, helping you to both prevent and fight diseases.

As we age, the organs, blood vessels, and airways become more rigid. The tissues have more trouble receiving oxygen and nutrients, and removing carbon dioxide and other wastes. Our bones become thinner and more likely to break. The heart, lungs, and kidneys need to work harder. Aging changes occur in all of the body’s cells, tissues, and organs, and these changes affect the functioning of all body systems. Fortunately, HBOT can reverse aging in the body. The increased oxygen due to HBOT helps combat degenerative conditions and promotes health and beauty. It improves the functioning of the heart and reduces the risk of heart attacks. It improves osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, increasing mobility and stamina. It reduces inflammation and pain. It helps support and protect the reproductive organs, thickening the uterine lining, and preventing frequent trips to the bathroom. HBOT supports all of the body’s systems, including the skeletal, muscular, endocrine, circulatory, nervous, digestive, and reproductive systems. HBOT is revolutionary in targeting and reversing the aging process at the basic cellular-biological level.

The leading cause of visual loss is the age-related macular degeneration (AMD), for which there has been no cure previously. However, studies show that HBOT can significantly improve vision in cases, which were considered untreatable by presently accepted methods. It not only helps combat age-related macular degeneration, but also reduces central retinal artery occlusion and improves glaucoma symptoms. Cells of the retina are actually an extension of the brain. Just like brain-injured patients benefit from the increased oxygen, people with retina problems can certainly benefit from HBOT. HBOT can lead to healing and restoration of function in the eyes.

Cognitive decline is a concern as we age. Thanks to the extra supply of oxygen, HBOT can boost your brain’s everyday performance. HBOT helps patients think faster, have greater memory, improved mental clarity, better attention and executive functions, and significant neurological improvements. HBOT treatments reduce oxygen starvation and inflammation in the brain by delivering 100% oxygen under pressure. This allows for oxygen to flood the body’s blood, cells, and tissues. Studies show that by enhancing blood flow in the brain, oxygen therapy can improve overall cognitive abilities and memory in older individuals suffering from memory loss. Also, if you are suffering from a neurological condition, where there is a deficiency of oxygen reaching the cells, and you start oxygen therapy early on in life, it may be possible to prevent dementia and Altzheimer altogether.
