We Are Cutting Edge
At Hyperbaric and Healing Center, we provide medical-grade hyperbaric oxygen therapy, administered by a team of highly trained physicians and clinical staff with expertise in hyperbaric care.
Our dedication to safety is evident through our use of FDA-approved, medical-grade hyperbaric chambers manufactured by Sechrist Industries in Anaheim, California. These chambers meet or exceed the most up-to-date regulatory safety standards and are designed with an acrylic cylinder to offer a comfortable, non-claustrophobic experience.
Before each patient session, our technicians conduct thorough safety inspections, and they remain present throughout the therapy to ensure your safety and comfort. With our compassionate and knowledgeable staff, you can feel confident that you’re receiving the highest level of care from start to finish. Your safety and well-being are always our top priority.
Why Top Athletes Use Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?
Faster Recovery
HBOT increases the amount of oxygen dissolved in blood plasma and body tissues, accelerating recovery after injuries or intense workouts and improving overall performance. It significantly reduces muscular enzyme levels, while the improved oxygen saturation helps decrease inflammation, alleviating pain and promoting tissue regeneration. Additionally, HBOT stimulates the growth of new blood vessels in injured areas, speeding up the healing process. As a result, athletes can return to action more quickly and with fewer limitations.
Healing from Concussions
NFL players Joe Namath (quarterback) and Bill Romanowski (linebacker) both experienced multiple head injuries. After undergoing HBOT, they reported improvements in memory loss, focus issues, anxiety, irritability, and other symptoms.
Enhanced Athletic Performance
Increased oxygenation of body tissues through HBOT enhances athletes’ aerobic capacity and endurance.
Reduction of Elevated Cytokines
Athletes sometimes experience elevated cytokine levels, leading to low-grade, chronic inflammation. HBOT can help counteract these effects by reducing inflammation in muscles and organs.
Study: NFL Athlete Improves Cognitive Function with HBOT
In 2011, a case report highlighted an NFL player who suffered multiple concussions, eventually developing hydrocephalus, which required emergency brain surgery to insert a shunt. Despite this, the athlete continued to play and even won the Super Bowl. However, when his shunt failed, he underwent additional back-to-back emergency surgeries. Afterward, he received 40 one-hour sessions of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT). Upon completing the treatment, he underwent independent neurocognitive evaluations and SPECT brain imaging at the Amen Clinic in California, which showed significant improvements in his cognitive functioning.
What is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)
Oxygen is a nutrient that every cell in your body requires for optimal function. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is a specialized non-invasive treatment for wounds, angiogenesis (new blood vessel growth), ad reducing swelling and inflammation, stem cell generation, anti-aging of DNA, and improved infection control.
The patient simply breathes 100% medical-grade oxygen in a chamber at increased atmospheric pressure. HBOT can increase the oxygen concentration in the body by up to 1,200% which aids the body to absorb oxygen in a greater amount and transports it to the blood cells, blood plasma, cerebral-spinal fluid, and other body fluids.
Sufficient oxygen content in the affected tissues promote healing and provide relief. HBOT utilizes oxygen, an abundant natural element, to promote the health and healing of the body.
