Are you suffering from chronic conditions such as auto-immune problems, inflammation or even cancer?
Are you in good health, but just want to maximize the natural functions of your body and realize the
fullness of life quality?
You may want to consider Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatments (HBOT).
What is HBOT? Simply, it is exposing a patient to a highly pressured form of oxygen that makes it easier for the oxygen to get through the lungs and have positive effects on the human body.
When a person goes to high altitudes like the Rocky Mountains, we have trouble breathing.
The reason isn’t because we are not able to breathe, but the oxygen around us is under very low pressure so our bodies are not able to take in the oxygen fully.
HBOT is just the opposite, in the sense that these treatments increase the pressure on the oxygen around us, allowing our bodies to absorb the oxygen more efficiently and have greater
benefits.
Heredity versus Environment
Modern science is giving us a greater understanding of DNA and its role in the human experience.
What we are learning is that DNA serves more of a reactor function and is not an actor function.
Essentially, DNA only gives our cells instructions on how to react to specific external stimuli.
Environmental and Epigenetic (Lifestyle) factors play a much greater role in our experience, as these factor are giving our DNA something to react to.
The key then is offer the proper stimuli to our DNA to receive the benefits we would like to see. HBOT is a type of controlled stimuli that can help us get those benefits.
All Cells are NOT created equal
Every cell in the human body has specific characteristics and components.
The main component of each cell is the Mitochondria which is really the “engine” of the cell and determines the energy and vitality that each cell possesses.
Environmental factors over time, and lead to a cellular process called senescence.
This is a process in which cells cease dividing and undergo distinctive alterations that create irreversible growth arrest of human cells.
HBOT has shown effectiveness slowing down these processes, as well as demonstrating the ability to create high effective stem cells.
Stem cells are the body’s raw materials. They are cells from which all other cells with specialized
functions are generated. Under the right conditions in the body, stem cells divide to form more cells called daughter cells.
These daughter cells become either new stem cells or specialized cells with a more specific function, such as blood cells, brain cells, heart muscle cells or bone cells.
No other cell in the body has the natural ability to generate new cell types. This can have amazing benefits to people who have suffered nerve damage, such a those with spinal cord injuries.
Additionally, those who have suffered broken limbs can find they are able to heal faster when employing HBOT as part of their overall therapy.
The extra oxygen that is driven into our cells through HBOT, can essentially re-generate the body’s
critical functions and has some profound anti-aging benefits as well.
Covid and other deadly Pathogens
One of the other key benefits of HBOT is improving the body’s white blood cell activation. This is highly
important today as we deal with the Covid virus and its myriad of mutations.
In fact, HBOT was used during the early part of the 20th century in treating the outbreak of Spanish Flu, with strong success.
The main thing to remember is that HBOT does not increase lung expansion, but increases oxygen diffusion throughout the body. This became painfully apparent during the worst periods of the Covid pandemic as many patients who were on ventilators passed away anyway.
The problem is that traditional ventilators do not help a patient from losing oxygen saturation which is essential for survival in this case.
Every cell within our bodies requires a healthy dose of oxygen to survive and to replicate. HBOT has been shown to improve oxygen saturation through out the body.
The Oxygen Pressure Sweet Spot
It is important to consult a professional who has been trained in HBOT, in order to take the next step.
Not all patients require the same level of oxygen pressure to gain the profound benefits that HBOT offers.
To put this in perspective, consider a person residing a sea level and another that is residing in the Rocky Mountains.
The person at sea level is absorbing oxygen at a higher and more efficient rate than the person
in the mountains.
Effectively a professional in the HBOT space is putting the patient in an environment similar to below sea level conditions, but that level will differ by patient.
An over exposure can created greater oxidation of the body than is beneficial and would need to be dialed down some.
A professional can help identify the appropriate pressure sweet spot that is ideal to each individual patient.
Helping the Effects of Cancer Treatment
Any person that has endured radiation and chemotherapy for the treatment of their cancer, understands the pain and after effects that such treatment can have.
In fact side effects can last many years following the treatment.
HBOT has shown benefits in helping cancer survivors to mitigate the long term effects that their cancer treatments have left them with.
The radiation and chemotherapy process by its very nature, damages our cells.
In our zeal to eradicate the cancer cells that are multiplying, we often do long term damage to many healthy cells in our body.
By revitalizing these cell with pressurized oxygen, we give these cells the opportunity to heal themselves right from the mitochondria itself.
Results don’t appear overnight, but with time and several treatments, patients can see a vastly improved quality of life post-cancer.
Weight-loss, Obesity and Diabetes
One of the important things to understand about our cells is than each cell’s mitochondria, have a natural preference to burn energy and thus fat.
The oxygen diffusion benefits accessed by HBOT can re-energize our cell mitochondria to return to its natural state of fat burning.
Additionally for diabetic patients, HBOT has shown the ability for a patient to use insulin more efficiently. In such cases, a patient may be able to reduce there insulin intake gradually over time.
It’s not a Cure-All, It’s a Help-All
Some of the conditions that HBOT has had success in treating include neurological issues, autism,
inflammation, immune system issues, gangrene, diabetes, migraines, and other issues associated with
general aging.
It is important to note that HBOT does not purport to be a cure-all, but what it does is help
the body heal itself.
Our bodies know better than we do when it is not in a desired state, and it will inform us through pain and other signals.
What often happens with patients who enter HBOT is that they may come in to deal with a specific issues.
However, as treatments progress they notice that other conditions they may be suffering from begin to improve first.
Once the oxygen begins to diffuse through our bodies, our bodies will make use of it as it will.
HBOT does not control how the body makes its choices, but leaves it to the body as it knows best what is good for it and for us.
Stimulation and Maintenance
When we consider what we may need to lose weight, relative to keeping the weight off.
Similarly, what we need to do to get in shape relative to staying in shape. These are different thresholds of activity and HBOT works the same way.
The initial treatments that a patient receives may be at a higher barometric pressure since we are trying to stimulate our cell initially and begin the process of stem cell generation.
Once the desired effects are being achieved, the barometric pressure may be reduced as the stimulation
effects are no longer needed. This is why it is important to consult with an HBOT professional and devise an appropriate plan of action for your condition.
Beyond follow up HBOT treatments, the follow up plans can include dietary, exercise and other lifestyle factors to ensure the benefits obtains are then sustained.
Summary
HBOT is an exciting technology that can have wonderful benefits to patients suffering from a wide range
of conditions.
It is not medical therapy or Big Pharma, but a way for the body to naturally heal itself using
one of our key building blocks (Oxygen).
Like any form of treatment, it is important that you consult a professional who has been trained in the use of HBOT.
A professional can help you design a tailored plan for your specific needs, to ensure the best chances of long term benefits.
