What is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)?
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is a treatment where you breathe oxygen in a pressurized chamber. This chamber has higher air pressure than normal.
Oxygen has been known for its healing abilities for a long time. The first hyperbaric chamber was made in 1662, and doctors started using this therapy in the 1800s. In the 1960s, studies showed it could help with many health issues. Today, there are more than 150 conditions where HBOT has been proven to be helpful and safe – including for but not limited to diabetes, low energy, Lyme disease, cerebral palsy, head injuries, chronic fatigue, brain injuries, multiple sclerosis, ALS, anemia, wound and scar healing, post stroke care, post surgical care and healing, and improved athletic performance.
