A recent study showcased one of the incredible ways in which Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy heals - through increasing stem cells! 📈

The study showed a two-fold increase in stem cell production at 1.27 ATA with room air (no extra oxygen added)!! 💨

Stem cells are important because they are cells that can turn into many other cells (over 200). This makes them very valuable in healing! ❤️‍🩹🩺

Hyperbaric Oxygen miracle!!

After months of congestion that I knew wasn’t normal and wasn’t responding to all of my typical natural remedies, Charlie’s pediatrician and I agreed on allergy testing to determine a possible underlying or perpetuating cause. The allergist tested for infection first, and shockingly discovered that Charlie had a staph infection of his adenoids. An initial 10 day course of oral antibiotics failed, and a subsequent twice daily topical antibiotic for one month also failed at resolving his infection. At this point, talk of a stronger oral antibiotic was happening, and our pediatrician had also put in a stat referral to an ENT. Dr. Mac and I discussed the option of trying HBOT, so I decided to hold off on further antibiotics while focusing on hyperbaric oxygen therapy. After 20 hours over the course of about 4 weeks Charlie’s breathing is completely clear. We had his nose swabbed last week to check on the status of the infection objectively, and it is completely clear!
