DEPRESSION & HYPERBARICS

Depression has been associated with reduced blood flow and impaired oxygen delivery to certain areas of the brain. Pure oxygen supplied during HBOT helps the body oxygenate tissues, enhancing blood flow and providing the brain with more oxygen.

DEPRESSION & HYPERBARICS

Depression is a widespread and often debilitating condition that impacts individuals across the globe. One potential way Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) may offer support is by increasing the amount of oxygen delivered to the brain, which could positively influence brain function and overall mental well-being.

Research has linked depression to reduced blood flow and limited oxygen delivery to specific regions of the brain. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) delivers concentrated oxygen in a pressurized setting, allowing the body to oxygenate tissues more effectively. This process enhances cerebral circulation and increases oxygen availability, which may help ease pressure within the brain and support overall brain function.

The elevated oxygen levels provided through Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) can also stimulate the production of growth factors, encouraging the development of new blood vessels. This process may support improved brain function and enhance neuroplasticity—the brain’s natural ability to reorganize and adapt. Over time, these effects could contribute to longer-term relief from anxiety and support overall cognitive well-being.
