Sports & Hyperbaric Oxygen

 

‘Hyperbaric’ means ‘Increased Pressure’

Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) utilizes a chamber to pressurize its’ occupant while providing 100% oxygen to breathe, multiplying arterial oxygen levels up to 20 times normal. This higher concentration of oxygen reaches the organs, muscle, bone and connective tissue, supporting the body’s natural healing process at a much faster rate. There are many professional NBA, NHL, and NFL teams currently utilizing hyperbaric chambers for player injury and workout recovery.

​

HBO Benefiting Sports

• Increases energy production. #1

• Eliminate metabolic wastes quicker. #2

• Helps rid muscle inflammation from over-use. #3

• Quicker joint pain relief. #4-5

• Speeds injury recovery. #1

• Recover from illnesses quicker. #2-6

Extreme Workout Recovery

• Muscle burn and recovery times are greatly reduced following intense training.

• Performance is improved.

• Endurance is enhanced.

• Olympians use HBO to get muscle recovery as close to 100% as possible for daily competitions.

 

Greatly Reduces Recovery Time:

Overuse – Sprains – Partial Tears - Muscle & Bone Bruises

Concussion / mTBI

(mild Traumatic Brain Injury)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hyperbaric Oxygen

Reverses injury related swelling of the brain, therefore reducing cranial pressure and its’ associated negative symptoms:

• Nausea

• Headaches

• Vision disruptions

• Hyper-sensitivities to light  

 

​Restores Normal Brain Activity via:

• Reducing inflammation

• Hastening vessel repair from tearing and bruising associated with impact injury

 

Most Concussions Occur Without Loss of Consciousness

​

Seek HBO ASAP!

Utilizing Hyperbaric Oxygen within the fewest possible hours of an injury has been known to turn around conditions in days that may typically take weeks or more to recover from.​

​

Testimony:

A 12th grade Tulsa quarterback was rushed to an ER during a Friday night game after a helmet collision.  He was confused and could not put words together. His first Hyperbaric treatment was 16 hours after the injury. A second HBO session was done the following day. On Monday the medical evaluation confirmed that he had received a concussion, but indicating no need to go on a concussion protocol.

​

NHL players receiving tendon injuries are put into an Hyperbaric Chamber within hours of the injury, experiencing near miraculous recoveries.
