HBOT
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a method of treatment in which a patient breathes 100% oxygen. It is based on the natural remedy: pure (100%) medical oxygen, which is applied under increased pressure, (greater than atmospheric, which is 1 bar at the surface of the sea) in hyperbaric chambers.
​
Treatment using hyperbaric oxygenation:
By bringing more oxygen into the bloodstream, the treatment is thought to enhance healing for people with several conditions. Your body's tissues need an adequate supply of oxygen to function. When tissue is injured, it requires even more oxygen to survive. HBOT increases the amount of oxygen your blood can carry. An increase in blood oxygen temporarily restores normal levels of blood gases and tissue function to promote healing and fight infection.

The usefulness of HBOT in the treatment of sports injuries has been demonstrated in reducing the swelling and pain in the acute phase of the injury, stimulating the healing process of the injured muscle, tendon, ligament or bone in terms of collagen formation and tissue repair, as well as improving microcirculation and anti-inflammatory effects. Inhalation of oxygen at elevated pressure can increase the fitness and performance limits of athletes. The positive effects of HBOT certainly contribute to a faster and more efficient recovery after physical exertion and exhaustion, as well as a faster return to full sports activity after sports injuries.
Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation

Medical rehabilitation involves carrying out a series of activities and training for the independent living or work of individuals who have partially or completely lost this ability due to injury, illness, birth defects or other causes.
