Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is the medical use of oxygen in a pressurized environment. Increased pressure allows for oxygen to dissolve and saturate the blood plasma, which yields a broad variety of positive physiological, biochemical and cellular effects. This noninvasive therapy is the most trusted way to increase oxygen levels to all organs of the body.  There is no other tool or therapy that can do this.  Oxygen is a fundamental necessity for life and every cell in our body needs it to perform at its highest level.  Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is a safe and effective therapy.

 

 

 

CONDITIONS HELPED WITH HYPERBARIC OXYGEN THERAPY

  • Concussion
  • Traumatic Brain Injury
  • Dementia
  • Alzheimer’s
  • Neuropathy
  • Multiple Sclerosis
  • Autoimmune Conditions
  • Lyme’s
  • Mold
  • Sports Injuries
  • Muscle Fatigue/Recovery

 

INFLAMMATION:

When the body is in a state of inflammation either through toxicity, sedentary

lifestyle, chronic infections or overactive immune systems this leads to chronic

inflammation. The result of this is poor blood flow and tissue damage resulting in

low oxygenation. This impacts our mitochondrial function, which is at the height

of all chronic diseases.

The mitochondria is the source of our cell energy. They produce ATP or energy

when we eat food. When there is lower cell energy, this can create fatigue or

brain fog in the brain, muscles can become sluggish and weak. It can also impact

the intestines creating more bloating, gas or even malabsorption.

Another consequence of altered mitochondria is lowered cell voltage. This makes

the threshold to deliver a nerve signal much lower making us more sensitive to

sound, light and even pain.

 

DEGENERATION TO REGENERATION:

Since the mitochondria are critical for healing and regeneration the focus has to be

on restoring the capacity to heal the mitochondria. When oxygen is present the

capacity and efficiency of energy production is much higher.

Oxygen is critical in helping the body transition from Degeneration to

Regeneration. It is a key nutrient in removing toxins and clearing inflammation and

is essential to proper cell function.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy fills a few of our regenerative needs simultaneously. It has an

effect on the Reactive Oxygen Species (free radicals), and the neutrophil macrophage

immune response. It improves mitochondrial function and efficiently. It helps us produce more

energy and build new blood supply for further oxygenation, cell nourishment and removal of

toxins. It helps us release massive amounts of stem cells in both our bone marrow and our

brain.

Hyperbaric Therapy is the only therapy that can absorb a significant amount of oxygen

above the 100% saturation of our red blood cells carry capacity.

 

Our primary goal for your hyperbaric treatment is your comfort

HBOT and Anti-Ageing Research

Study: Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatments May Reverse Aging

Our treatment includes Red Light Therapy to add value to the regenerative conversation.

The mitochondria are very light sensitive so they benefit from this type of therapy. Red Light

will also stimulate Nitric Oxide Production to promote blood flow to assist in carrying the

oxygen as well as the nutrients and waste products.

Brain Tap is another modality we use to help the patient relax and put their brain into an alpha or relaxed state.

Testimonial

"Dr. Michael Veselak and his spinal decompression clinic have changed my life in a way I never would have thought possible. Now, five weeks after I started my treatment, I'm back to my very active lifestyle. During my entire treatment, I've been completely medication free. I couldn't have done it without Dr. Veselak. I would highly recommend this treatment to anyone faced with surgery as their only option or people that have chronic neck and/or back pain. This is an option you cannot afford to pass up." - Umrao M.

A Comprehensive Approach

As a Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner and Board Certified in Integrative Medicine, Dr. Veselak has found that successful treatment is the result of finding the source of the problem, and not covering the symptoms with medications.

With all chronic pain patients there is an underlying component that must be addressed if the patient is ever going to respond to conservative care and live a life without medications.
