Neurology and HBOT

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy works by increasing oxygen content in the brain, enhancing mitochondrial function and modulating over 8,000 genes on our DNA; upregulating those responsible for growth and repair and downregulating those responsible for inflammation and apoptosis.  

Research into the use of HBOT for neurologic conditions has grown exponentially in the last several years. Studies have been published on the positive effects of HBOT on stroke and TBI recovery. There is also data to support the use of HBOT for brain radio-necrosis, anoxic brain injury, mild cognitive impairment, vascular dementia, and migraine headaches.  New and exciting research pointing to a roll of HBOT in the treatment of Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, Multiple Sclerosis, and even spinal cord injuries.
