We may need to start slow and gentle with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) and Fibromyalgia.

By doing lower pressures and lower percentages of oxygen with HBOT, we're preparing the body to be able to handle higher pressures if we need to go there.

There's quite a bit of research on using HBOT for fibromyalgia, and the response rate seems to be really high.

Most of the research for fibromyalgia has been done at 2.0 atmospheres or more.

However, what's another thing we know about people with fibromyalgia?

Their autonomic nervous system is likely already pretty taxed.

They may have one or more autoimmune diseases underneath this fibromyalgia diagnosis, and ultimately they could be very sensitive to oxidative stress.

We also know that hyperbaric is an oxidative therapy. And so, is it possible that putting this person at 2.0 atmospheres or more right out of the gate would overexpose them, causing an increased oxidative stress response that they may not respond well to?

If we understood their story, knew that they had fibromyalgia, but also got a better feeling for where they were on the oxidative stress scale and/or understood if there were other comorbidities that might make them more sensitive to oxygen. We would also know that we should start more gently.

We should get them more frequent exposures at lower pressures, allowing the body to start to heal. Reducing the inflammation, reducing the oxidative stress, up-regulating their bodies antioxidant system, and ultimately just preparing their body so that if we even need to get to 2.0 atmospheres or more, that body is prepared to handle it.

Not just jumping right into the 2+ atmospheres that the research paper we read said we were supposed to do.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) can boost oxygen, but how?!

Oxygen is a passive diffuser inside your body.

Right now, the atmosphere you're surrounded by has a pressure and that pressure is what's driving oxygen from the air into your lungs, and then ultimately from your lungs into circulation.

Under normal atmospheric pressure, you're already saturating red blood cells at 100%.

We can't add any higher amounts of oxygen into our system because we can only carry in our red blood cells a 100% saturation.

That is, until we change atmospheric pressure.

When you go into a HBOT chamber, that's what's happening.

The HBOT chamber is creating a temporary increase in atmospheric pressure that's surrounding the person inside the chamber.

As a result, we're creating increased pressure of the gas. So, while at surface pressure I'm fully saturated with oxygen, as I increase atmospheric pressure inside the chamber, I'm driving more oxygen into circulation.

Now, again, I said, you could only be 100% saturated in your red blood cells, So, where does that extra oxygen go?

It literally gets dissolved into the plasma of your blood and then ultimately into your other fluids. i.e. your interstitial fluid, lymphatic fluid, and cerebral spinal fluid.

So, all these other fluids inside your body ultimately are the carriers of oxygen under HBOT exposures.

What is the protocol for off label infection control with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)? How much pressure and for how long?

I believe as we look through this category of off label infection control, we can also just view what pressures of oxygen we need also through the same lens of severity and intensity that we’ve discussed in other videos.

So when dealing with these off label conditions we can be talking about mild pressures 1.3, 1.5, all the way up to 1.75 or even 2.0. in rare cases For these off label conditions, we may go above 2.0. But please look at this with more intensity because the lower the pressure we use, the more frequency and duration we're likely going to need in order to achieve the results that we're looking for. The more severe the infection is, the more damage the infection is doing, the more pressure we should consider using.

So, this isn't to give you the protocol for each of those infections, because that is going to be HIGHLY individual. What I want you to understand is the thought process to go through when treating these conditions.

I hope that this was helpful. It’s important to understand how to take an on label concept, how to pull those mechanisms of action, how to really understand what those mechanisms are, and how to apply that to an off label case.

While there are other oxygen therapies out there, and I love them all, HBOT is the only one that can deliver massive amounts of oxygen into your system.

Every other oxygen therapy relies on your red blood cells carrying capacity, which can only be 100%. But HBOT bypasses your red blood cells and dissolves oxygen into the plasma of your blood, becoming a huge reservoir of oxygen for your body.

While you're inside a hyperbaric chamber, that chamber is being pressurized. It's creating a temporary increased atmospheric pressure. Oxygen is absorbed in our body (the plasma of our blood) due to the pressure gradient.

So as the pressure of the chamber increases, the amount of oxygen you can absorb also increases.

Hyperbaric oxygen is really the only way to meaningfully increase the amount of oxygen that's floating around your system, and driving more oxygen into your cells has the capacity to reduce inflammation and increase cellular energy production.

When we get all these questions for different conditions, understanding that hyperbaric is not going to treat any of those conditions, hyperbaric is going to deliver a nutrient into your body at a higher level than would otherwise be possible.

Your body is then going to use that oxygen to heal, regenerate, and recover.

And as a result of that, so many different chronic illnesses start to show improvement because the body finally got what it needed in order to heal properly.

Where does red light therapy fit into your wellness protocol?

In terms of stimulation of cytochrome c, anywhere is perfectly appropriate.

Whether you're getting it once, twice, or four times a week, it’s still going to benefit you.

Depending on the intensity of the red light, some sessions could be 10 to 12 minutes and some sessions could be 30 minutes.

If you are getting 10-30 minutes, 2 to 4 times a week, that's typically pretty sufficient in terms of red light dosage that you might need for a “typical” requirement.

If you have certain health challenges, you might want to use it more often or more frequently in order to get the benefits that you're looking for.

This is just a general protocol that you could use.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) can be divided into two distinct phases: the loading phase and the unloading phase.

During the loading phase, which occurs while you're inside the hyperbaric chamber under pressure, you're breathing in air or oxygen.

This process results in the accumulation of a surplus of oxygen in your body, a level that wouldn't be possible under normal conditions.

As soon as you exit the chamber, the unloading phase begins. The pressure that was maintaining that extra oxygen in your circulation is gone, causing the oxygen to start leaving your bloodstream.

This release of oxygen into your system offers tremendous health benefits.

While using the chamber continuously will provide you with the benefits of both the loading and unloading phases, longer breaks are generally recommended for optimal results.

In a soft chamber setting, this might look like completing 75 to 80 hours of therapy, followed by a break of at least 2 to 4 weeks.

3 bits of terrible advice that we've now seen regarding HBOT

Bad Advice #1: More is better

Very often people think, well, if some is good, more must be better. But when it comes to HBOT, that is certainly not true.

Bad Advice #2: You should sleep in your chamber.

More hours over more days, weeks, months and years without understanding the implications of those exposures could become hazardous.

Sleeping in your chamber 3-8 hours in a high-pressure chamber would really be pushing the boundaries on central nervous system oxygen toxicity and pulmonary oxygen toxicity. It's just not worth it.

Bad Advice #3: Mix enriched oxygen into the ambient air of your chamber (if pressurizing the chamber with air).

One of the comments that I see is just let the oxygen and air gases mix together inside the chamber. In my opinion, there's two reasons not to do this from a safety standpoint.

If your chamber is designed to contain 21% oxygen, it's an air pressurized device. Then, the ambient oxygen level inside that chamber is never supposed to exceed 23.5%. It's very likely that if you're just mixing air and oxygen together, the ambient level of oxygen inside that chamber is going to be between 28 and 35%.

As a result, you're significantly exceeding the recommendation of ambient oxygen levels inside that chamber. From a safety standpoint, from an efficacy standpoint if you deliver the oxygen directly to that patient, maybe they're getting 80, 90, 95, or 100% oxygen delivered to their face at whatever pressure the chamber is set.

Contrast that to mixing those two gases together, where instead of 80, 90, or 95% oxygen, now they're getting 29, 32, or 35% oxygen.

If the amount of oxygen being delivered to the patient is one of the more critical components of the reason that they're using HBOT, and you're choosing to give them 35% instead of 95%, then we're losing a significant percentage of the value of the time they're spending in that chamber.

A question we’re often asked is “How many HBOT sessions do I need for general health and wellness?”

Do you need 40 to 80 sessions like you do when you’re using HBOT for more acute or serious issues?

Can you do HBOT once in a while and still see benefits?

The short answer is you can generally see some health and wellness benefits in 10 to 20 sessions, as long as you do those sessions close together.

Then after that you can transition to a maintenance protocol for a stretch, until you do another larger protocol.

Repeated exposures to hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) causes the body to adapt the mitochondria to make use of the extra oxygen.

Discover how the mitochondria grow in size, enabling them to utilize increased oxygen levels effectively. Moreover, learn how the body responds to repeated HBOT exposures by creating additional mitochondria, comparable to adding multiple engines to a car. This surge in mitochondrial function leads to unparalleled cellular power and enhanced energy production, making HBOT an essential tool for optimizing biology, promoting healing, recovery, and regeneration.

Explore the remarkable connection between HBOT and mitochondrial efficiency, and unlock the extraordinary potential for revitalizing your body.

Does Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) make sense Post-surgical?

Of course it does.

Surgery is a traumatic event.

What we’re trying to do with HBOT is improve the speed and the efficiency of the healing process to allow somebody post-surgically, to heal faster, recover faster, regenerate more efficiently, and just get back to their life as quickly as possible.

Getting more oxygen into that system is absolutely going to reduce the healing time and potentially improve the healing efficiency of that patient.

Should You Just Stay In The Chamber Longer Or Break Up Sessions Over Time?

There really isn’t a lot of research to say whether long durations of singular treatments, or long durations of multiple sessions over time are more efficient or more productive. However, there is some research on a few concepts.

One is the Hyperoxia Hypoxia Paradox. There's this time you spend in the chamber and this time you spend out of the chamber. What that does is it creates a wave of increasing and decreasing oxygen levels versus increasing oxygen levels, keeping them high for a period of time, and then coming down.

That wave of increasing and decreasing oxygen does seem to be exceptionally more effective than just going to a certain oxygen level, staying there for a long period of time and coming out.

So According to what we see in Hyperoxia Hypoxia Paradox, Intermittent sessions of allowing the oxygen levels to go up and down (getting in the chamber & coming out of the chamber multiple times) does seem to have a much better effect than just staying in the chamber once for longer periods of time.

Could you be overoxidized?
Sometimes when a patient feels worse after Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) it is because they have been overoxidized.

We shouldn’t start a patient out at 2.5 atmospheres on 100% oxygen for 90 minutes. That’s something they need to work up to.

If we start a little slower and we expose them to small amounts of HBOT, small amounts of oxidation, we give their body a chance to recover and recuperate from the rebuilding of their bodies antioxidant system.

Then, if we expose this person over a series of treatments to slowly increasing levels of hyperbaric (which also means slowly increasing levels of oxidation) not only will they tolerate our treatments better, but they're actually going to tolerate their everyday environment better.

Taking our time to work up to higher pressures can help patients have a positive experience with HBOT and they’ll be more likely to continue the care they need.
