More research is demonstrating the importance of combining hyperbaric oxygen therapy with conventional drug therapy for cancer for sensitizing the cancer cells, ultimately leading to more cancer death. Here, this study showed us that just elevating the pressure and combining a promising anticancer agent caused more destruction to the cancer cells <view study> Read Less

The Journal of Orthopaedic Research just published on article demonstrating the beneficial effects of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy on human degenerated intervertebral disks. During the course of the study, the researchers were able to evaluate physiological changes associated with regeneration of tissue, thus proposing various methods of action <view study> Read Less

In an eight week study performed on rats, hyperbaric oxygen therapy effectively improved blood pressure parameters and repressed hypertension. This clinical trial used a lower pressure protocol, using only 1.25 ATA. Though this phenomenon has been observed in clinical practice, this is the first study of its kind to demonstrate the not only the link between the two, but also the possible mechanisms that may be playing the key roles <view study> Read Less

During the various stages of arthritis, the joints and surrounding tissue are in constant attack from oxidation stressors and inflammatory reactions. This causes progressive damage and leads to the many debilities that are seen in arthritis sufferers. This study used 1.25 ATA (low pressure) hyperbaric therapy and discovered that a 3 week course of this hyperbaric dosage had a protective effect <view study> Read Less

Many sufferers from mold toxicity complain of cognitive deficits including: memory problems, inability to focus (brain fog), and slow reaction times. The addition of hyperbaric oxygen therapy was shown to cause marked improvements in these patients. These improvements were seen in only 10 sessions of hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Moreover, this study revealed that these benefits were seen at only 1.3 ATA (low pressure) and while using oxygen connections closer to room air than the conventionally-used 100% oxygen delivery systems <view study> Read Less
