The Function of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy in Our Body.
As we start the new year, let’s revisit how hyperbaric oxygen works. To start, let’s go over how our lungs work. The air that we breathe is 21% oxygen. As we take a breath in, the lungs absorb the oxygen in the air and transfers it to our bloodstream. Red blood cells have hemoglobin (which is partly iron) that latch onto the oxygen. Red blood cells carry oxygen around the entire body, distributing oxygen to your cells. We have very little free-floating oxygen in our blood. When you receive a treatment of hyperbaric oxygen, you are breathing around 100% oxygen for that hour. And the chamber has a higher pressure on your body then outside it, which results in more oxygen available to your red blood cells. It also results in more free-floating oxygen in your blood stream. Now your body is super-saturated with oxygen.
