Hyperbaric Therapy benefits your body by helping to increase your body's ability to absorb oxygen. Oxygen is vital for health, it is the single most important element your body needs. Oxygen is our primary source of energy.
Not only does oxygen fuel the body, it supports the immune system by destroying toxic substances. Anaerobic bacteria, fungi and viruses all have a common intolerance for oxygen; they cannot survive in an oxygen rich environment.
The body's vital functions are enhanced by increased availability of oxygen. Increased pressure also stimulates blood flow and decreases inflammation, and has a calming effect. Sleep is enhanced, absorption of nutrients and digestion improved.
At the cellular level, oxygen is required for proper function.
Oxygen deficiency is often overlooked.
Some of the possible signs of low oxygen levels in the body include:
- Premature aging
- Unexplainable depression, anger or sadness
- Memory loss/forgetfulness
- Sleeping disorders, drowsiness, exhaustion
- Digestive disorders, acid stomach
- Excessive colds or infections
- Inflamed, swollen or aching joints
- Muscle or tendon aches
- Headaches
- Chronic fatigue
- Difficulty breathing, breathlessness, shortness of breath
Certain environments and activities can contribute to low oxygen levels, including:
- Regular, heavy exercise
