As a clinician, our job is to match the intensity of the Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) we're delivering to the severity of the issue or the intensity of the goals that the patient has.
We have a certain framework we use when we're looking at pressure, frequency, duration, and total number of sessions that we use when crafting a patient’s personalized protocol.
We can generally use lower pressures, less number of sessions, less frequent and less time for less severe goals and issues.
This would be for more wellness based or general health improvements or mild immune system response, mild inflammatory issues, or mild mitochondrial dysfunction.
On the flip side, when we have a patient who has a really severe issue or a very acute issue, they require a more intense HBOT protocol.
In these cases, we often have to start raising the pressure, frequency, duration, and total number of sessions that they're going to need in order to get their desired results.
