Radiation Damage & Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen
Radiation injury is damage to soft tissue and bone following radiation therapy caused by ischemia, interruption of blood supply and direct cell damage.
- Hyperbaric oxygen increases tissue radio sensitivity enhancing the effect of radiation and chemo therapy.
- Hyperbaric oxygen enhances the immune system.
- Hyperbaric oxygen prevents delayed radiation injuries, swelling and wounds.
- Hyperbaric oxygen improves bone remodelling by stimulation of new bone growth and removal of necrotic bone.
- Hyperbaric oxygen promotes new vascular growth creating favourable conditions for skin or bone grafts or implants.
- Hyperbaric oxygen prevents infection, inflammation and improves oxygenation of entire body.
- Prophylaxis – prevention of development of delayed radiation injury and damage.
Cerebral Palsy & Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen
mHBOT for CP is based on the theory that along with damaged brain cells, people have some inactive dormant cells that possess the potential to recover and reactivate metabolically by providing a significant increase in oxygen in blood plasma, making oxygen available to heal hard to reach and damaged cells.
- Significant improvements in spasticity, attention and memory, gross and fine motor function, speech, functional skills and sleep patterns.
- Fighting infection.
- Oxygenating ischemic tissue.
- Induces growth factors in stem cells to help them differentiate and begin the formation of new vessels and cells.
- Regaining neurological function through stimulation of blood flow, metabolism and tissue growth in the damaged brain.
Anemia & Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen
Reduced oxygen content slows down the exchange of the nutrients and metabolic by-products which can accumulate and become toxic. Red blood cells instantly bind oxygen and additional oxygen dissolves directly into blood plasma, increasing oxygen levels within organs, tissue, bone etc. far above normal in just a few minutes. Higher oxygen pressure will drive out toxins and heavy metals from the body.
Anemia is characterized by significant decrease in blood volume and red blood cells, the main oxygen carries in our body. This is caused by various factors including blood loss from internal bleeding, trauma, destruction of red blood cells by disease or abnormal production of red blood cells in the bone marrow. Deficiency of red blood cells and haemoglobin reduces the oxygen carrying capacity of blood, causing paleness, weakness, fatigue shock or coma.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is an effective treatment for anemia as it pushes oxygen into blood plasma to reach vital organs, tissues and bone. Additional oxygen will cause growth of new capillaries improving blood microcirculation or oxygenate and revitalise all areas of the body. Hyperbaric oxygen will supply enough oxygen to support the metabolic needs of the body tissue until red blood cells are restored and will also aid in the restoration of these blood cells. All publications report a positive result when hyperbaric oxygen is delivered as treatment for anemia, acute blood loss, haemorrhage or related conditions.
Chronic Fatigue & Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen
Research studies has shown that hyperbaric oxygen therapy significantly and substantially reduced fatigue and improve quality of life in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome.
They hyperbaric chamber increases the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood, allowing it to absorb 10-15 times more oxygen than normal.
Administering extra oxygen through HBOT is known to reduce swelling and inflammation, improve blood flow, boost energy and enhance the immune system alleviating symptoms related to the condition, advancing physical energy and mental focus.
Cancer & Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen
Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is currently being utilised in conjunction with conventional treatments, including radiation and chemotherapy, to increase oxygen levels within the body. Stimulating tumour regression and reducing the side effects of cancer treatments.
Cancer thrives in a low oxygen environment. mHBOT increases oxygen levels to weaken tumours and reduce their aggressiveness.
- Increases IV Vitamin C therapy effect.
- Improves surgical results.
- Increases oxygen levels in tumours.
- Decrease tumour drug resistance.
