Many people continue to struggle with the lingering effects of COVID-19, preventing their bodies from fully healing. COVID-19 is a respiratory disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which primarily attacks the lungs and other tissues. This damage can lead to hypoxemia, a life-threatening condition characterized by low blood oxygen levels.
Hypoxemia occurs when the lungs lose their ability to efficiently take in oxygen and distribute it throughout the body. Since our body relies on oxygen-rich blood to heal and nourish tissues, COVID-19 can leave individuals with a weakened immune system and respiratory function. At NorCal Brain Center, we are committed to providing cutting-edge treatments to help accelerate your post-COVID-19 recovery.
Studies on Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) suggest that it may play a crucial role in healing COVID-19-related lung damage and restoring overall health.
How Can Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Aid in COVID-19 Recovery?
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) involves breathing in 100% oxygen in a pressurized chamber, where the air pressure is 2 to 3 times higher than normal atmospheric levels. This process significantly enhances the body’s oxygen absorption, allowing the lungs to take in and distribute much more oxygen than under normal conditions.
Some key benefits of HBOT for post-COVID-19 recovery include:
Enhanced Oxygen Delivery – Increased oxygen intake helps oxygenate the blood, ensuring that vital organs and tissues receive the oxygen they need to function optimally.
Reduced Inflammation – High oxygen levels help decrease inflammatory responses, which can contribute to lingering symptoms of COVID-19, such as fatigue, brain fog, and shortness of breath.
Accelerated Tissue Healing – Oxygen-rich blood promotes the repair and regeneration of lung tissues, aiding in the recovery of COVID-19-induced lung damage.
Boosted Immune System – A well-oxygenated body is more efficient in fighting off infections, supporting long-term immune health.
Improved Circulation – HBOT stimulates the formation of new blood vessels, enhancing blood flow to damaged areas and expediting tissue repair.
