The Basics of Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Hyperbaric is defined as: relating to, or utilizing greater than normal pressure especially of oxygen. Hyperbaric therapy increases the intake of oxygen in the body and dissolves that oxygen into all of the body's fluids, including the blood. Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (mHBOT) utilizes a system that pumps ambient air into a chamber that pressurizes to depths of 1.3 atmospheric pressure or 11 feet below sea level. As this occurs, the increase of oxygen under pressure delivered to the body's tissues, organs and brain promotes our natural ability to fight off every day factors that can wear it down.


Oxygen and the Human Body

Oxygen is vital for health, it is the single most important element your body needs and is a primary source of energy.

The body can survive without food for three weeks, without water for three days, but without oxygen for only three minutes. Only 10% of our body's energy comes from food and water and 90% comes from oxygen.

Oxygen is essential!
