CROHN'S & HYPERBARICS
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) may offer supportive benefits for individuals with Crohn’s disease by increasing oxygen delivery to inflamed or damaged tissues.
CROHN'S & HYPERBARICS
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) may offer supportive benefits for individuals with Crohn’s disease by increasing oxygen delivery to inflamed or damaged tissues. This enhanced oxygenation can help reduce inflammation, support the healing of the intestinal lining, and improve circulation to affected areas. By influencing the immune response within the gut, HBOT may help alleviate symptoms such as pain and discomfort commonly associated with the condition.
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.
