Complaint
HBOT is a medical treatment where the patient or athlete is placed into a large clear acrylic chamber and breathes 100% oxygen at pressures higher than normal atmospheric pressure. The air that we normally breathe consists of only 21% oxygen.
Recovering athletes are usually required to be in the chamber for between 90 - 120 minutes once or twice per day depending on their specific needs which will be assessed by the HBOT physician.
As a result of any injury the body will experience hypoxia (decreased oxygen) and inflammation around that injury. When breathing 100% oxygen in a pressurized chamber, you enable the oxygen to dissolve into all the bodily fluids including plasma (in some cases, plasma oxygen content has been shown to be up to 10 times higher when making use of HBOT), central nervous system fluids, lymph, and tissues which are oxygen deprived (such as injured tissues) as opposed to just into red blood cells. HBOT can also stimulate neovascularization (new blood vessels), osteogenesis (stimulation of collagen and bone growth) and enhance leukocyte function therefore decreasing the chance for infection. Oxygen is an essential part in all of these phases.
