Mild Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (mHBOT) has become an increasingly popular practice amongst professional athletes for its numerous benefits in enhancing sports performance. Breathing increased amount of oxygen while in a pressurized chamber subsequently raises the amount of oxygen that dissolves in the bloodstream, delivering more oxygen to the body’s tissues. mHBOT can help athletes recover more quickly after injuries, improve endurance, and enhance cognitive function. Studies have shown that hyperbaric oxygen therapy can reduce inflammation, increase the production of new blood vessels, and improve the body’s ability to use energy. As a result, professional athletes have been using this therapy to boost their pre and post-training performance and gain a competitive edge.
HBOT treatments lead to greater absorption of oxygen into the body, support the increase in oxygen levels in hemoglobin and plasma and the transport of oxygen to damaged tissues for regeneration and healing. They enable the production and deposition of collagen in tissues, reduce inflammation and support the revitalization of damaged tissues.
mHBOT is one of the safest and non-invasive methods used in supplemental therapies. Studies have consistently proven (Park 2018, Ishii 2005, Sueblinvong et al. 2004) the efficacy of the low-pressure HBO in lactate removal. Treatment accelerates metabolism, thanks to which lactic acid is removed from the muscles faster, which in turn reduces the risk of micro-injuries.
Used alongside manual methods of sport physicians and professionals, mHBOT can bring your recovery to the next level.
Don’t let the injury slow you down. Intense training, demanding tournaments and not enough rest – minor injuries are part of the game. Speed up your recovery with mHBOT sessions by boosting your body’s natural repair mechanisms. By increasing the oxygen amount carried in your blood, plasma and cerebral liquid you will improve circulation and ultimately target the inflammation of the injured tissues.
Head injuries are common in contact sports and they often result in concussion – traumatic brain injury. Low-pressure hyperbaric oxygen therapy is an effective way to help you recover. The same healing properties of higher oxygenation will apply to your brain and aid in decreasing swelling and inflammation.
