The Effectiveness Of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

HOW EFFECTIVE IS HYPERBARIC OXYGEN THERAPY?

Thanks to the impact of our lifestyles and the environment we live in, our bodies are in a constant state of disruption and repair.

High levels of physical and psychological stress (exercise, work, lack of sleep), combined with questionable lifestyle choices (smoking, drinking, poor diet) will have a negative impact on our health and wellbeing. Add to that the legacy impacts of illness, and we create the conditions for longer term problems.

Whilst it’s possible to help tip the balance in our favour, we could always do with a helping hand. Hyperbaric oxygen treatment in an Airpod is one such example.

EFFECTIVE USE OF HYPERBARIC OXYGEN THERAPY

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy benefits include a reduction in free radicals such as ‘Reactive Oxygen Species’ (ROS). Whilst some reactive oxygen species are beneficial to our health, an excess of others can damage healthy cells.

Evidence shows that hyperbaric hydrogen therapy helps to reduce the number of these free radicals [1]. Although the body has a mechanism for dealing with them, it can be easily overwhelmed if there are enough factors working against it.

Using an Airpod with its unique Hydroxy (oxygen and hydrogen) treatment helps to reduce the number of free radicals in the body. This supports the return to a healthy balance.

HOW EFFECTIVE IS HYPERBARIC OXYGEN THERAPY?

The medical world has embraced the use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy for decades, using the technology to treat a wide range of conditions. Its use in general health and as a wellness support option is more recent.

The mechanisms via which it is an effective medical treatment mean it’s also useful for general health.

We know from research that one of the hyperbaric oxygen therapy benefits is a reduction in inflammation [2]. This is a huge benefit, because most of us are dealing with a level of systemic inflammation. Whether that’s from a pre-existing injury, exercise, illness, or nutritional issues, we could all use a little help controlling inflammation.

HOW IS THE THERAPY ADMINISTERED?

Hyperbaric oxygen treatment is arguably the most passive form of therapy there is. You simply lie in the Airpod and breathe. The pressure of the air in the pod then allows the hydrogen to be absorbed into the blood stream as it is breathed in.

Not only is the treatment incredibly effective, but it’s also relaxing – you get to lie down for an hour, free from distraction and stress (which is ironically, a major cause of inflammation!)

The entire session requires nothing from you. It’s a case of lying in the chamber, enjoying the relaxation, and breathing in the therapeutic hydrogen. You’ll leave the session feeling relaxed, and the benefits will appear within the first few hours.

The additional oxygen in your body will also give you more energy and leave you feeling more alert. Additionally, it’ll likely help you sleep deeper and more effectively at night [3].

HYPERBARIC OXYGEN THERAPY BENEFITS

Here’s some of the fundamental benefits of the treatment for general health…

Improved wound and injury healing
Reduced inflammation
Deeper, more restful sleep
Relaxation and reduced stress
Improved energy and mental alertness

These will all benefit the public when they use an Airpod for hyperbaric oxygen therapy. This is a non-medical device used for wellness rather than medical treatments.
