Helping your veterinary patients heal faster & live longer.

Cutting Edge Veterinary Medical Technology

Veterinary Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)

Veterinary Hyperbaric Medicine Society (VHMS), USA position statement:

The use of HBOT has the potential to accelerate the normal healing process and thus the potential to enhance the health and welfare of animals.

Veterinary HBOT - Wellness benefits:

“Adds years to life & life to years”
 for your pet patients.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is medicine’s most efficient method of transporting oxygen to cells throughout the body even in areas with limited blood flow and offers tremendous healing benefits of oxygen.  


According to the Veterinary Hyperbaric Medicine Society (VHMS), USA position statement, the use of HBOT has the potential to accelerate the normal healing process and thus the potential to enhance the health and welfare of animals.

Free Radicals:

Appropriate levels of oxygen free radicals can facilitate tissue metabolism and cell detoxification, but excessive oxygen free radicals will damage the body.

SOD is responsible for catalyzing the conversion of superoxide to elemental oxygen and hydrogen peroxide. This transformation is called dismutation, hence the enzyme’s name - Superoxide Dismutase (SOD)

Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) is an enzyme that repairs cells and reduces the damage done to them by superoxide, the most common free radical in the body. 

Studies have shown that SOD acts as both an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. Can play a critical role in reducing internal inflammation and lessening pain associated with conditions such as, example, arthritis.

Hyperbaric Oxygen increases the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), which is important for scavenging free radicals. Thus, the net effect is an increase in oxygen and a reduction in oxygen free radicals, which then protects the body from many harmful effects. 

Immune Effects:

The immune system fights all types of infections. Compromise of the immune system can result in allergies, infections, diabetes, hypothyroidism, mange, parasites, cancer, and many other diseases in small animals.

Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy increase in the number of white cells when they are exposed to an enriched, oxygenated environment. 

The bactericidal and bacteriostatic effect of HBO considers that cells that are short of oxygen (hypoxic), are less resistant to infections and therefore hypoxic tissues are easier to be damaged. As the killing of bacteria is oxygen-dependent, breathing hyperbaric oxygen has both a direct and an indirect effect. 

An environment that is oxygen enriched has the capabilities of healing faster while promoting healing to specific body parts at the same time. Increased oxygen amounts can reach bone, tissue and all body parts faster and be more effective when fighting infections. 

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy improves the immune system and enhances the natural healing process.

Inflammation:

Inflammation is an integral finding in numerous medical conditions and coincides with nearly all types of injuries and insults. Numerous studies have reported inflammation has caused many chronic health challenges. 

HBOT has been scientifically proven to reduce inflammation, which is at the root of so many disease processes. 

Oxygen is required by every cell in the body for survival and providing an oxygen rich environment, will allow the body to heal itself and reduce areas of inflammation. HBOT drives increased levels of oxygen into the body, which travels through the plasma, subsequently reducing inflammation and pain through out the body.

Studies have shown that HBOT increases anti-inflammatory levels and provides increased cellular aid to heal target regions. Hyperbaric Oxygen has important effects on the mediators of inflammation. Improves telomeres function slowing the process of cell degeneration and causes regulation of growth factors required for cell repair.

The benefits of reducing inflammation via hyperbaric oxygen therapy are immediate, as well as long term. The injury heals more quickly, less pain is experienced, joints feel better, and have increased function where the injury occurred.  With reduced inflammation, there is reduced risk of heart disease, Alzheimer’s disease, cancer, osteoporosis, diabetes and many other conditions. Reduced inflammation increases general health.

Toxin Removal:

The spectacular use of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT), recognized even by conventional American medicine, is its powerful detoxification benefit. 

Increases the production of glutathione, the body’s main antioxidant powerhouse, by 15%.

When our levels of oxygen are reduced, the body’s ability to repair and protect cells is severely impaired, and therefore the body is unable to eliminate toxins effectively. Operating on reduced levels of oxygen encourages bacteria, fungus, viruses, microbes and pathogens to flourish. All of these harmful agents, as well as toxins, are unable to exist in an oxygen rich environment.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy increases oxygen levels in the blood allowing the tissues to become saturated with oxygen. This creates a more effective environment to support healing, improve metabolic function of cells, support the immune system, enhance the body’s natural healing processes, and support detoxification of the cells. 

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a fantastic way to support and enhance the body’s natural detoxification processes.

ATP:

It has been demonstrated that individuals with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) suffer from great mitochondrial dysfunction with the degree of dysfunction and severity of the illness being strongly correlated. Moreover, hypoxia has been shown to impair mitochondrial function and diminish ATP production in other diseases. 

Since only 0.3% of all inhaled oxygen is ultimately delivered to the mitochondria, increasing the oxygen delivery to the mitochondria by HBOT may actually improve mitochondrial function and improve age-related fatigue.

In animal studies, HBOT (in comparison to room air pressure and oxygen levels) has been shown to increase the amount of work done by mitochondria, improve mitochondrial function after brain injury, and prevent mitochondrial deterioration.

Telomere health: 

A well established fact of the aging process is the length of the protective cap at the end of chromosomes called ‘telomeres” that shortens each time the cell divides. With each cell division the telomeres shorten and do not protect the cells any further resulting in age related symptoms. 

Hyperbaric Oxygen has important effects on the mediators of inflammation. Improves telomeres function slowing the process of cell degeneration and causes regulation of growth factors required for cell repair.

Pain management: 

Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy plays a major role in pain prevention and treatment.The goal of hyperbaric oxygen therapy is to restore circulation, reduce inflammation or edema, and remove the swelling in affected area of the body. The other goal is to eliminate the disease itself. 

Hyperbaric oxygen treatment is a proven method used to treat pain management by infusing damaged tissue with oxygen. The oxygen works to relieve and repair damage, offering relief to pet patients that suffer from chronic pain. Hyperbaric oxygen treatment may be used as an alternative to narcotics, which may result in harmful side effects.

Hyperbaric oxygen treatment may be used to not only provide pain relief, but to help patients recover from injury or painful conditions at an accelerated rate.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy - The perfect wellness treatment for your pet patients:

Oxygen is essential for life. It powers every single one of the vital functions by fuelling the production of energy and the growth and regeneration of cells. 

By way of hyperbaric oxygen therapy, the increased pressure causes the blood plasma, and other liquids of the body, to absorb much larger quantities of oxygen, greatly increasing oxygen uptake by the cells, tissues, glands, organs, brain, and all fluids of the body. This oxygen can then be effectively utilized for optimal functions of the whole body.

There’s no special secret to why hyperbaric oxygen therapy is the perfect wellness treatment. Hyperbaric oxygen can significantly improve your pet’s ability to fight cell decay by destroying harmful bacteria, ramping up body’s immune system and increases blood flow which helps repair and regrow damaged cells. Most importantly, Hyperbaric oxygen therapy mobilises stem cells and keeps it healthier so they can repair your pet’s body and rejuvenate.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy reduces fatigue, increases energy, stamina and endurance, strengthens heart and lungs, relieves stiffness & swelling in muscles and joints, dramatically cuts down infections, reduces swelling, inflammation and pain, improves neurological function, regulates cell rejuvenation, clears out toxins and metabolic waste products, and helps your pet to return to a state of balance and well being.

Veterinary Hyperbaric oxygen therapy improves the quality of your pet's life. If you are interested in your pet’s health, help them staying healthy and live longer with you, consider Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy.
