10 Main Effects Of HBOT
Increased oxygen perfusion
Immediate increase in free-floating oxygen available for tissue use
Nerve healing factors
Increases in VegF, BDNF, HIF1
Vasoconstriction
(Decrease edema and swelling from damaged tissues)
Anti-microbial/microbiome balancing
(Reduction in anaerobic pathogens and
increase in aerobic probiotics)
Neovascularization- Angiogenesis
VegF stimulating new blood vessel growth)
Wound healing Increased capacity for healing
PDGF, VegF, stem cells and collagen production circulatory healing
Mitochondrial healing
(Increase in size, shape, efficiency, and number of mitochondria)
Increased white blood cell function
Improved neutrophil and macrophage activity increased ROS and NOS
Stem cell release
(Up to an 8-fold increase in mesenchymal and CNS stem cells)
Anti-inflammatory
(Reduction of inflammatory cytokines, increase in anti-inflammatory cytokines)
