HBOT - Detox, Free Radicals & Telomere health

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is a fantastic way to support and enhance the body’s natural detoxification processes.  When our levels of oxygen are reduced, the body’s ability to repair and protect cells is severely impaired, and therefore the body is unable to eliminate toxins effectively.

Detox: One of the more spectacular uses of HBOT being recognized is its powerful detoxification benefit. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a fantastic way to support and enhance the body’s natural detoxification processes. 

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy increases oxygen levels in the blood allowing the tissues to become saturated with oxygen. This creates a more effective environment to support healing, improve metabolic function of cells, support the immune system, enhance the body’s natural healing processes and support detoxification of the cells.

For example, skin being the largest organ in the body, the toxins show as skin blemishes and as discolorations. One of the spectacular use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy is its powerful detoxification benefit. HBOT removes toxins and the aesthetic benefits is shown outwardly on your skin. 

Free Radicals: There is a direct correlation between the oxidative stress and the Free-Radical Theory of Aging. Appropriate levels of oxygen free radicals can facilitate tissue metabolism and cell detoxification, but excessive oxygen free radicals will damage the body.

Hyperbaric Oxygen increases the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), which is important for scavenging free radicals. Thus, the net effect is an increase in oxygen and a reduction in oxygen free radicals, which then protects the body from the effects of aging including the effects of the aging skin.

Telomere health: Cell health is vital to your skin. A well established fact of the aging process is the length of the protective cap at the end of chromosomes called ‘telomeres” that shortens each time the cell divides. With each cell division the telomeres shorten and do not protect the cells any further resulting in age related symptoms, one such being wrinkles of the skin.

Hyperbaric Oxygen has important effects on the mediators of inflammation. Improves telomeres function slowing the process of cell degeneration and causes regulation of growth factors required for cell repair.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is used in wellness, anti aging & spa centers worldwide for its rejuvenating properties.  The Anti-aging effects of hyperbaric oxygen builds a strong foundation for aging without looking or feeling old.  It improves the quality of life.  HBOT is a great longevity and anti aging tool.
