Could I just make up for in time what I'm lacking in pressure with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)?
Let's just use two specific treatment protocols.
At 1.5 atmospheres, which is equivalent to saying seven and a half psi, versus 2.0 atmospheres, or 14.7 (almost 15) psi.
So let’s say 1.5 is about half of the pressure of 2.0.
So does that mean that if I did, let's say 20 sessions at 2.0, I would have the exact same exposure or result as if I did 40 sessions at 1.5?
No. We can't say that.
Could we get closer?
Could we say that the total number of units of oxygen at that 2.0 for 20 sessions would be basically the same number unit of oxygen as it would be of 1.5?
Yes, but would that equal the exact same effect? We can't say that either.
Ultimately, we know that the higher pressure will deliver certain results, that the lower pressure is likely not to deliver.
Can we compare the two? We really can't.
We can measure the units and make a comparison to try to make an equal protocol, but we can't guarantee that those RESULTS are going to be the same and likely they won't be.
