Summary of Study The study, “Effects of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy on Mitochondrial Respiration and Physical Performance in Middle-Aged Athletes: A Blinded, Randomized Controlled Trial,” investigated how hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) affects physical performance and mitochondrial health in middle-aged athletes. HBOT, a treatment where individuals breathe 100% oxygen in a pressurized chamber, was tested for its... Continue reading Hyperbaric Therapy Improves Physical Performance in Athletes

Summary of Study The study, “All the right moves: the need for the timely use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy for treating TBI/CTE/PTSD,” investigates the therapeutic benefits of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) for traumatic brain injury (TBI), chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). It questions why HBOT, an effective and safe treatment, faces... Continue reading Hyperbaric Therapy for TBI, CTE, and PTSD

The management of musculoskeletal disorders: Adjunctive hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy, or HBOT, has been used as an orthopaedic treatment for several decades.

Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) is used in a sports medicine setting to reduce hypoxia and edema and appears to be particularly effective for treating crush injurie.

Study: The application of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) for the treatment of sports injuries has been suggested in the scientific literature as a modality of therapy.
