How Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy works?

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is a medical treatment that involves breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber. The usage of hyperbaric oxygen therapy is getting popular these days. The findings of a new study published in the Urology journal had found the effectiveness of radiation cystitis in pelvic radiotherapy patients. Recently, the Regional Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS) Imphal became the first ever government institute to install a hyperbaric oxygen therapy centre in the entire north east region.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is commonly used to treat a variety of medical conditions and promote healing. "HBOT is a cutting-edge therapy that helps your body heal faster by supercharging the supply of oxygen in your blood, as well as increasing natural healing chemicals," The Wellness Co. says.
