Sports Recovery & Endurance
The risk of injuries is a potential hazard for all sports and can occur in even the most novice athlete.
More and more athletes are taking control of their recovery and coming back stronger than ever using Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy.
A Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber can create an environment where cells can be more receptive to repair and recovery.
Vasoconstriction (temporary reduction of blood volume), may help to reduce inflammation. However with increased blood plasma oxygen levels in the athletes body there is an increase of oxygen in the body’s tissues and muscle fibres, especially in regions of injury and swelling. Decreased inflammation increases recovery rate allowing functional mechanisms to be effectively re-recruited and allowing the athlete to regain optimal performance quickly.
Proposed Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy healing mechanisms of neovascularisation (growth of new capillaries) and epithelialisation (regenerating tissue cells) provide the recovering athlete with a unique opportunity to re-condition at a faster rate.
