Hyperbaric Education 👩🏼‍🏫👍🏻

      I almost feel like I could be a part of the hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) team at my doctor's office because I have done so many HBOT treatments (50+ I even have an honorary dive team shirt). When I was doing these regularly I felt very good after the treatments and know that they are worth the time and expense.  Today was my first Hyperbaric treatment in a really long time. Hyperbaric is what helped my arm to heal faster when I broke it in 2016 and is what has helped me be able to move to stay as active in school and training as I have been. Hyperbaric treatments consist of getting zipped up in what looks like an oversized sleeping bag. It looks intimidating at first when you hear that you are going to be laying in a giant bag for an hour, but they give you a walkie-talkie if you need to get out, but more importantly, this treatment gives your body a chance to relax and heal due to the oxygen being forced into your body. I fall asleep or do homework because it is pretty roomy.

     I have had these before, but this is to help get my body to get back to the level it was at before, now in preparation for the placental cells. The pressure and the extra oxygen speed up the healing process and reduce inflammation (which in my case benefits my brain). The process consists of getting into the chamber, they have an oxygen mask that you can put on for extra O2, and they pressurize the "cabin" that fills with more air to give your body the feeling of being taken down to sea level so you are breathing medical grade oxygen at higher than normal pressures. You basically are breathing oxygen you'd get from a doctor's office, two to three atmospheres "underwater" for about an hour (PSA your ears pop a lot until you are used to it). I was doing very well physically and mentally when I was doing this almost daily, and I know that it will help me feel good again and prepare me for the stem cells. Once you are in the chamber it’s an hour to unwind and sleep (I did that in the past even to the point of snoring) or listen to music and read.

HBOT is the use of pressure and oxygen to help heal, repair damaged tissue, and optimize health. HBOT allows us to deliver much more oxygen to the body's cells than normal. This extra O2 infusion supercharges the healing process, boosts recovery, and reduces inflammation. It provides oxygen to areas in the body where there may be limited supply due to poor circulation or injury. Hyperbarics have been found to increase vascular health, improve energy levels, enhance immune function, and regenerate tissue by releasing stem cells. Whether it's a specific health condition or general wellness and prevention, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy can help you.
