Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber for Athlete Recovery

Hyperbaric is used as a therapy to treat sports injuries, from acute injury to muscle contusions and ankle sprains. It is also used in treatment of joint, ligament, and tendon injuries with the main aim of reducing recovery time.

Oxygen is essential to the tissues in the body and any tissue injury requires oxygen for healing. The body normally heals itself using oxygen from air: increased oxygen concentration can extend the body's ability to heal. Many athletes, both professional and amateur, are now becoming involved with their care, recovery and well-being. One of the treatments they are choosing is to breathe pure oxygen under pressure.

The benefits can include:

1. Increased supply of oxygen to injured areas.
2. Quicker healing of soft tissues, ligaments and fractures.
3. Reduction in swelling and pain.
4. Prevention of hypoxia of the traumatized tissues.
5. Enhanced ability of white blood cells to kill bacteria and prevent infection.
6. Reduction of scar tissue formation.
7. Helping you return to peak performance in your sport sooner.

A: Hyperbarics is a technology in which the air pressure in the environment is increased. When a person's body is placed in a more pressure environment, it absorbs more oxygen molecules per volume of compressed air.

A:Usually 60-90 minutes for each time, 5-7 Times per week. Doctors recommend using it continuously every day, but one time per day is enough.

A: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is prescribed by a physician and performed under medical supervision. Although there are minor risks like all medical treatments, overall hyperbaric oxygen therapy is extremely safe.

A: Portable Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber is completely safe. The most common side effect is discomfort to the ears caused by pressure changes. To minimize the risk, patients learn to promote the adequate clearing of your ears during pressurization. Some patients may feel tired and dizzy after using hyperbaric chamber first time. It's a good signal that Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy will speed up the metabolism of your body. They are usually good signs in indicating detoxification.

A: When cells in the brain die, either from trauma or lack of oxygen, blood plasma leaks out into surrounding brain tissue causing swelling and reducing blood flow. These otherwise normal cells go dormant because they can't function without the appropriate amount of oxygen. HBOT dramatically increases the oxygen carried in the blood plasma, making oxygen available to heal damaged capillary walls, preventing plasma leakage and reducing swelling. As the swelling decreases, blood flow can be restored to the dormant tissue (neovascularization) and these cells then have the potential to function again.
