Neurology and Hyperbarics

Approximately 1 billion people, of all ages, are currently affected by neurological disorders, with an estimated 6.8 million related deaths that occur every year world-wide. This staggering statistical evidence illustrates the substantial impact of neurological disorders. New evidence has shown how hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has helped individuals regain neurological activity and functionality. For neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders, in additional to neurological injuries, HBOT provides the brain with increased levels of oxygen to help recover / repair brain tissue, increase neuronal stem cell growth and improve cognitive functioning.

Conclusion: “Clinical Studies have demonstrated the benefits of HBOT for neurological conditions with the following:

Improve brain functioning and performance with HBOT

  • Stimulates Angiogenesis

  • Improves Cerebral Oxygenation

  • Enhances Memory and Mental Performance

Attenuate Neuroinflammation with HBOT

  • Reduces Cerebral Edema

  • Decreases Intracranial Pressure

  • Reduces Cerebral Infarction

  • Reduces Blood-Brain Barrier Breakdown

  • Minimises Oxidative Stress

Increases Regeneration of Nervous System with HBOT

  • Stimulates Neurogenesis

  • Promotes Proliferation and Mobilisation of Neural Stem Cells

  • Facilities Neuroplasticity

Improve Brain Repair & Recovery with HBOT

  • Recovers and Repairs Damaged Brain Tissue

  • Develops and Regains Cognitive/ Motor Functions

Ameliorate Neurological Conditions with HOBT

  • Neurodevelopmental Conditions (Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Fetal Alcohol Syndrome)

  • Neurodegenerative Conditions (Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Huntington’s Disease)

  • Neurological Injuries (Stroke, Traumatic Brain & Spinal Cord Injuries, Concussions)”
