Originally used to treat everything from nervous disorders to decompression sickness in deep-sea divers, hyperbaric oxygen therapy has become a powerful routine tool among modern professionals, biohackers, and athletes for its amazing benefits. 

Contents
  • Increased Energy Levels
  • Enhanced Exercise Performance
  • Improved Wound Healing
  • Better Sleep Quality
  • Encourages Cell Growth And Collagen Production
  • Better Cognitive Function
  • Reduce Pain And Swelling

To fully understand the power behind this amazing tool, let’s take a look at the 7 benefits of hyperbaric oxygen therapy and how it can help anyone, no matter their industry, activity level, or lifestyle, achieve their full potential. 

Increased Energy Levels

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a great way to increase your energy levels. The hyperbaric chamber, which in cases the body in an average of 1.3-1.5 ATA pressure oxygen, forces the body to absorb more oxygen and optimize internal processes.

The increased oxygen supply improves blood circulation. This helps your body use energy more efficiently and improves your energy metabolism. Your body can support better mitochondrial production and release more energy.

Everyday fatigue is a prevalent modern issue, even for non-athletes. But with the hyperbaric oxygen changer, you can comfortably increase your energy input for better day-to-day performance and a more optimistic mood. You can even buy your own hyperbaric chamber through online retailers like Clarity Hyperbarics.

Enhanced Exercise Performance

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy might sound like a new bio-hacking method, but athletes have used it for years for its impressive performance-enhancement abilities.

First, hyperbaric chambers improve your VO2 max or the maximum amount of oxygen your body can consume to fuel your performance. With consistent use, the hyperbaric chamber will increase your baseline VO2 max, allowing you to use more oxygen during your exercises and games. 

Second, hyperbaric oxygen therapy increases your muscle stamina. Consistent oxygen exposure via a hyperbaric chamber increases muscle fatigue resistance, letting you go harder for longer. 

Lastly, hyperbaric oxygen therapy increases your exercise power output. With the increased VO2 max, muscle fatigue resistance, and better energy supply, your body can perform closer to its full potential than ever before

The best part? There are professional grade Hyperbaric chambers for home use, combined with red light therapy, PEMF devices, and other biohacking tools, there’s no limit to what you can achieve with your health. 

Improved Wound Healing

When the body experiences external trauma, like a blow or a cut, it causes the skin to break and the blood vessels in the area to tear. It’s painful and puts you at risk of infection.

There’s also the risk of cell decay because of a lack of oxygen. This happens when tissue surrounding the wound ‘drowns’ in fluids released by the wound. It’s painful and can increase your healing time exponentially.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy promotes healing by introducing more oxygen to the blood and tissue surrounding the wound. Rejuvenated with an oxygenated blood supply, the surrounding tissue, and the wound can access the necessary oxygen and nutrients to reduce swelling and heal the wound faster. 

Better Sleep Quality

There are four main sleep stages: N1 sleep, which is the stage you’re in when you just fall asleep; N2, which is light sleep, where your temperature drops and heart rate slows; N3, or deep sleep, where your body repairs tissue; and REM sleep, the stage where you dream, the brain is ‘cleaned’, and memories are stored.

Deep sleep and REM sleep are often the most affected by low oxygen supply. This leads to decreased energy, feeling fatigued, and less cognitive function.

Fortunately, hyperbaric oxygen therapy offers a solution. The increased oxygen supply helps the body fall into deep sleep and maintain the REM sleep cycle, thus increasing your sleep quality. 

Encourages Cell Growth And Collagen Production

The increase in oxygen from hyperbaric oxygen therapy encourages angiogenesis, a natural body process that promotes blood vessel growth. More blood vessels mean more oxygen and nutrients moving throughout the body, improving overall health and function.

It also encourages collagen production. Collagen is the most widely found protein in the human body and is linked to skin and bone health. It’s also an essential component for proper muscle, tendon, and ligament function and recovery.

Increasing your oxygen supply boosts the natural collagen production in your body. Combined with the increased cell growth, oxygen therapy can provide a structural overhaul of your body and increase your quality of life. 

Better Cognitive Function

The increased cell growth and overall improved function so prominent with hyperbaric oxygen therapy aren’t limited to muscle, tendons, and ligaments. It also extends to organs. The brain requires nutrients and oxygen to build new neural pathways and improve cognitive function.

Which is exactly what hyperbaric oxygen therapy does. With the increased oxygen and nutrient supply, your brain can build better neural structures, heal damage, store memories, and perform better cognitively. 

Reduce Pain And Swelling

Whether you’re an athlete recovering from an intense workout or someone struggling with chronic pain, pain is a daily issue for the majority of people on Earth. Without proper treatment, it can seriously impact your quality of life and performance. 

As established before, the hyperbaric chamber helps with wound healing. This includes internal injuries like muscle micro tears, musculoskeletal pain, and chronic pain.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy lets you not only treat pain and reduce swelling but ascend past the pain to unlock your full potential.
