Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Sports - Medical / Health Care - Medical Equipment
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) for professional sports has become one of the most effective methods for athlete recovery.
Supplementing oxygen intake at higher atmospheric pressure inside a hyperbaric chamber is known to naturally accelerate recovery times to help athletes to recover faster and can reduce the risk of lesions.
Sport can be very intense and injuries or trauma can occur, as a result of forces of impact in contact sports during game play or very tiresome training sessions.
- Sprains
- Strains
- Cuts
- Contusions
- Simple fractures
- Muscle fatigue
Game play intensity in sports today has led to an increase in the incidence of injuries for sports players at every skill and age level. The risk for very competitive athletes to lose their professional momentum when injuries occur is lower than the risk of re-injury, which would lead to more acute problems.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy – breathing oxygen in a pressurized chamber - leads to an increase of oxygen levels in the blood plasma, thus increasing the ability of red blood cells to access suppressed blood vessels and allow oxygen flow to damaged tissues.
Elevated oxygen levels contribute to faster recovery after a workout to increase overall athletic performance.
HBOT is one of the fastest ways to accelerate recovery. Increasing atmospheric pressure leads to a higher oxygen absorption rate, which is helping the body to help itself and reduce pain and fatigue after heavy workout sessions and effort in training or games.
- Reduce local deprival of oxygen at tissue level
- Reduce scar tissue formation
- Reduce muscle fatigue and muscle strains
- Increase supply of oxygen to all areas
- Increase stem cell activation
- Improve mental focus
