CROHN'S & HYPERBARICS
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) can help Crohn's disease by increasing oxygen levels in the tissues, which can reduce inflammation, promote healing of damaged intestinal lining, and potentially improve blood flow to the affected area.
CROHN'S & HYPERBARICS
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) can help Crohn's disease by increasing oxygen levels in the tissues, which can reduce inflammation, promote healing of damaged intestinal lining, and potentially improve blood flow to the affected area, thereby alleviating symptoms like pain and discomfort associated with the disease; essentially acting as an anti-inflammatory agent by modulating the immune response within the gut.
HOW HBOT CAN HELP
Addresses Tissue Hypoxia:
IBS is characterized by inflammation and can lead to oxygen-starved tissues (hypoxia). HBOT increases oxygen levels in the blood, which can then be delivered to these tissues, potentially improving their function and promoting healing.
Reduces Inflammation:
Inflammation is a key factor in IBS, and HBOT can help reduce it by suppressing inflammatory gene expression and mitigating cytokine storms.
Promotes Tissue Regeneration:
HBOT can promote the growth of new blood vessels and tissues, which can be beneficial in repairing damaged tissues in the gut.
Antibacterial Effects:
HBOT can help the body fight off harmful bacteria, which can be a contributing factor to IBS symptoms.
Improved Oxygenation and Healing:
HBOT increases oxygen levels in the blood, which can improve oxygen delivery to tissues, promoting healing and reducing inflammation.
Potential for Improved Quality of Life:
By addressing the underlying causes of IBS, HBOT can potentially lead to a reduction in symptoms and an improvement in the overall quality of life for individuals with IBS.
