What is HBOT?
(Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment)

HBOT is oxygen delivered under pressure. This is a means of delivering oxygen at higher
concentrations for medical and prescriptive purposes.
The limiting factor of oxygenation at normal pressures (1.0 ATA) is our own blood and
tissue physiology.
At 1.0 ATA, the red blood cells are able to carry only a limited amount of oxygen, which
includes a very small percentage (about 3%) dissolved into our
blood plasma.
At higher pressures, oxygen is more readily dissolved in all
bodily fluids, including blood, plasma, lymphatic fluid,
cerebrospinal fluid and the fluid between cells.
This increase in oxygenation helps to reverse states of tissue
oxygen depletion, known clinically as hypoxia, which is
often the cause of most cellular damage during disease states.
Research has concluded that oxygen administered to healthy patients results
in an action called vasoconstriction, meaning that once their blood vessel
walls and surrounding tissues have been sufficiently saturated with oxygen, the vessels themselves constrict to restrict
the flow of blood to the tissues.
However, in damaged tissues, where oxygen toxicity is less of a concern due to an already depleted state of
tissue oxygenation, the vessels remain open and dilated until the
hypoxic state is reversed.
This phenomenon allows the oxygen to be routed through the body in exactly the pathway in which it is
most needed by the tissues.
How does this benefit patients?
