Hyperbarics Oxygen Therapy in Boise

Increase the oxygen in your body, improve your healing capabilities.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy increases the amount of oxygen in our red blood cells up to the maximum level of 100%, which speeds up the wound healing process and overall health of the body. As we go throughout our day, inhaled air composed of various gasses and oxygen is moved throughout the body via the red blood cells and when we increase the oxygen levels within those red blood cells we increase the health and function of those cells exponentially.

Determine if empirically-backed high-pressure HBOT is offered at a facility.

Ask your hyperbaric oxygen provider these questions:

1. What pressures are you able to achieve?

Ideally you want a range of low-high pressures like 1.3-2.4ATA i.e. 4-21PSI.

2. Do you use medical grade oxygen?

100% medical grade oxygen is the most effective and thoroughly researched gas. It is superior to room air and an oxygen concentrator.

3. Do you use a hard or softshell chamber?

Some conditions are amenable to the softshell chamber and it is more cost effective. However, most conditions require or see best results at pressures that exceed 1.3ATA.

4. If the chamber is softshell, does it exceed 1.3ATA?

There are no legal softshell chambers that have been empirically demonstrated to reliably and safely exceed 1.3ATA.

5. Are you able to consult a hyperbaric professional during the course of your treatment?

Choose a facility where you will have access to their medical director should complications or need for protocol adjustment arise.

6. Are your symptoms being monitored?

The hyperbaric technicians should be inquiring about your progress and reporting to the medical director. It helps to have multiple people looking out for you for your safety and effective treatment. More pressure is not always better; you need to be under the care of someone who knows the scientific literature.

7. How much experience do you have?

A lot of clinics are popping up all over the United States; choose one that has a solid safety record and years of experience. For example have safely completed over 15,000 hyperbaric oxygen dives.

What To Expect

As you enter a hyperbaric chamber and the atmospheric pressure is increased, oxygen changes the way it “behaves” in the body such that it dissolves into blood plasma, lymph, and cerebral spinal fluid. Once oxygen enters these fluids, it can then diffuse into tissue and oxygenate inflamed or hypoxic (low oxygen) areas not easily reached by red-blood cells.

Although there are very impressive acute effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy that occur at an epigenetic level, the most sought-after improvements are observed after regular, daily to twice daily treatments, for 1-2 months. Research has shown repeated treatments promote the growth of new blood vessels (angiogenesis), neurons (neurogenesis), increase glutathione levels, repairs damaged mitochondria, functions as an antibiotic and antiviral, mobilizes stem cells, increases collagen, and lowers systemic inflammation.

In-Home Rentals of mHBOT

One of the most common questions we receive is whether low pressure hyperbarics has the same potential for healing as higher pressure (HBOT). Granted, there are certain conditions we believe are best suited for higher pressure HBOT, we have success with a range of conditions using lower pressure, often termed mild- hyperbaric oxygen therapy (mHBOT). Interestingly, a number of patients we see have autoimmune conditions. One possibility is that patients with compromised immune systems reduces their ability to handle the higher levels of oxidative stress associated with higher pressure HBOT.

Discover The Healing Power Of Oxygen

oxygen-healing-boise — One of the most sought after benefits of HBOT is that consistent and repetitive treatments promote growth of new blood vessels. Interestingly, this does not also translate to increased tumor growth. On the contrary hyperbaric oxygen has been found to inhibit the growth of most cancers.
