Anti-Aging & HBOT
Clinical studies demonstrate the benefits of HBOT for age-related degenerative conditions.
Age-related degenerative issues are a growing concern world-wide. Studies have shown that Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) can help combat degeneration by contributing to the regeneration of tissue and blood vessels. HBOT stimulates the development of new blood vessels in areas of the body where circulation is compromised and is utilized by some physicians to help treat Coronary Heart Disease, Macular Degeneration, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, Arthritis and immune related diseases.
Additionally, HBOT helps promote collagen activation to help battle the signs of aging including skin damage and elasticity.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy can help facilitate improvement in the following areas:
- Circulation and Blood Flow
- Heart Health
- Brain Function
- Joint and Soft Tissue Health
- Eye Health
- Skin Condition
- Reduces Inflammation
- Circulatory Disease Protection, including Coronary and Heart Disease
- Diabetes
HBOT has been shown to be an effective solution when it comes to age-related issues. Some of those include:
General Health
- Increases energy levels
- Promotes the creation of new stem cells
- Decreases risk of infection
- Reduces stress and anxiety
- Supports the immune system
Circulation & General Blood Flow
- Stimulates the formation of new blood vessels
- Combats & prevents circulatory diseases including coronary heart disease and diabetes
Heart
- Improves oxygenation to cardiac tissue
- Reduces risk of heart attack
- Improves heart muscle functioning after heart attack
Brain
- Stimulates the creation of new brain cells
- Promotes the creation of new brain connections
- Improves memory and reaction time
Joints, Soft Tissue & Bones
- Enhances treatment for arthritis
- Accelerates healing
- Reduces inflammation and pain
- Improves mobility and stamina
Eyes
- Helps combat age-related macular degeneration
- Reduces compromised blood flow to the retina
- Moderates glaucoma symptoms
Skin
- Reduces excessive skin damage from ultraviolet radiation exposure
- Promotes collagen production and maintains skin elasticity
- Improves wound healing and reduces scar formation
Study: HBOT Protects Skin from UV Rays
A 2012 study by a medical research team from the University of Connecticut and the Wound Recovery and Hyperbaric Medicine Center at Kent Hospital in Warwick, RI, focused on the effects of HBOT preconditioning and its protective properties against Ultraviolet-A (UV-A) induced skin damage. Three groups of hairless mice were exposed to UV-A, three days a week for 22 weeks, with two of the groups receiving HBOT pretreatment either two or four times a week. UV-A exposure amplified skin cell death, signifying elevated levels of skin damage. Pretreatment with HBOT substantially reduced UV-A induced cell death. In addition, HBOT pretreatment prevented skin creasing and maintained skin elasticity.
In other words, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is able to help protect skin from harmful UV rays, meaning that HBOT can help your skin to stay looking younger longer.
