Is Frequency Or Duration More Important?

Duration of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) sessions isn’t as important as the frequency of sessions.

For example:

Let's say somebody was going to do six hours a week of HBOT.

Scenario 1: They came in on Saturday and did one six hour session

Scenario 2: They came Monday, Wednesday, & Friday and did two hour sessions those three days a week.

Scenario 3: They came in Monday THROUGH Saturday and did 60 minutes, six days a week.

Even though over the course of the week all scenarios total six hours of treatment, I would argue that it's exceptionally more beneficial for the person who came in six days a week for one hour (Scenario 3) than either of the other 2 options.

So, as a general statement, I do want to say that “Overall frequency trumps duration.”

Going in and out of the chamber more often seems to have a bigger effect than the total amount of time someone spends in the chamber.

We go more in depth on this in our full YT Video on Frequency vs. Duration here:

One question that often arises about Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is it's effect on cataracts.

Research and anecdotal evidence have not shown HBOT to cause cataracts. However, it's important to note that for individuals with pre-existing cataracts, undergoing HBOT could potentially accelerate cataract maturation.

Before starting HBOT, anyone suspecting they might have cataracts should seek a thorough evaluation to understand any potential risks fully.

For those with cataracts interested in HBOT for other health reasons, opting for treatments at lower to mid-range pressures might offer a safer approach, minimizing the risk of accelerated cataract maturation.

We did an entire video on HBOT & Cataracts right here:

When treating an MS patient with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) over time, an intriguing process unfolds.

Gradually, as their system becomes more adept at tolerating increased levels of oxidation through HBOT, their ability to handle environmental oxidative stress also improves.

One notable effect we observe is the reduction in lipid peroxidation. This term refers to the breakdown of fatty sheaths, including the plaques in the brain, commonly associated with MS.

By enhancing the body's intrinsic antioxidant system through HBOT, we're essentially bolstering its capability to combat free radical damage.

As a result, there's an upregulation of the body's own antioxidants. This process is key in mitigating the oxidative stress, which is a significant factor in the progression of MS. By harnessing the power of HBOT, we're not only addressing the symptoms but also reinforcing the body's natural defense mechanisms.

Have you heard this? Oxygen is toxic.

There's two types of oxygen toxicity:

1. Central nervous system oxygen toxicity. Which is a very high dosage of oxygen in a very short period of time. Typically, in a hyperbaric environment, that's going to be a pressure of oxygen of 2.0 or more, where the risk of oxygen toxicity starts to elevate.

2. Pulmonary oxygen toxicity. This is not about a large amount of oxygen in a short period of time. It's about a moderate amount of oxygen over a really long period of time.

It's actually NOT a myth that oxygen is toxic. It's actually very true that oxygen has the capacity to be toxic. But, there are also very well-defined lines to avoid central nervous system oxygen toxicity and to avoid pulmonary oxygen toxicity.

Knowing that you can expose somebody to increased oxygen levels, improve their benefits, improve their ability to heal, and regenerate cells and tissues, and at the same time keep it well below those thresholds that you're keeping your patients safe.

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.

When it comes to Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT), you could treat yourself in the privacy of your own home by either renting or purchasing a chamber.

You can also go to a clinic or a wellness center and get treated with trained technicians under the supervision of a health care provider or medical doctor.

Which is the best for you?

Well, the real answer to this question is going to depend on the severity of your issues (or the size of your health goals), your access to an HBOT clinic, and/or your ability to be able to get a soft chamber into your home.

It also depends on the duration you see yourself needing this as part of your therapy for your health and wellness.

Lastly, it's going to be a TIME and FINANCIAL commitment. So keep that in mind when deciding what’s best for you.

Here are a couple of “Time” and “Financial” things to factor in:

1, Consider the time investing and expenses traveling to and from the clinic you choose. (This might be a great option if the clinic is close by).

2. Would investing in the home system be more cost effective for you personally OR would investing in the hours at the clinic and the prices there be the better option?

3. Would you feel safer/more supported in a clinical setting or do you feel comfortable learning the ins and outs from your own home?

❓Can You still do Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) if you have mild to moderate COPD?

A lot of times, this could be a great benefit to COPD patients. They could have improvements to the cardiovascular system. heart, lungs, and blood vessels,

However in moderate to severe COPD, the patient really needs to be checked and cleared by their primary or specialist before we know for sure that they are a good candidate for HBOT.

For example, a patient with an ejection fraction of below 25% (which would be pretty significant Heart failure) cannot go in the chamber with very rare exception.

Is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) a good tool for reducing inflammation?

Generally speaking, yes.

So you have this elevated inflammation, you do a protocol of hyperbaric, It brings your inflammation down. We can now pull the therapy and if ultimately we had gotten to the root cause of your issue, there's no reason to think the inflammation will continue to rise.

If however, there is still a root issue creating inflammation in your body, then we can try to take a break from hyperbaric, but the inflammation may start to climb again. If that happens, we'll put HBOT back in and then slowly decrease it again to find the right rhythm that helps keep the inflammation at bay. OR we may need to start digging deeper to figure out what the root cause of the inflammation is.

How to Calculate Oxygen Tolerance Units

An oxygen tolerance unit is literally a measurable dose of oxygen a patient is getting from Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT). When we're just casually talking about oxygen dose with hyperbaric oxygen or I'm trying to explain this to a patient, I might just say to them “oxygen pressure in minutes.”

The formula is literally ATA (the absolute pressure in atmospheres) multiplied by the percentage of oxygen that they're breathing (with 100% = 1, 90% = .9, etc), multiplied by the length of the session (in minutes).

So if a patient was at 2.0 atmospheres on 100% oxygen for 60 minutes, that would be 2 x 1 x 60, which = 120 oxygen tolerance units.

Dr. Jason was featured on PIX11 for Health Matters, sharing his personal perspective on longevity, nutrition, and hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

During the interview with Dan Mannarino and Hazel Sanchez, Dr. Sonners discussed:
✨Why the updated food pyramid is a step in the right direction
✨The importance of limiting refined carbohydrates and u,tra-processed foods
✨Returning to nutrient-dense foods that have existed for thousands of years
✨How hyperbaric oxygen therapy supports cellular health, reduces inflammation, and enhances brain performance
✨Why longevity is about quality of life, not just years lived

His message was simple and practical:
You are not locked into decline. Health can always be improved AND the earlier you support your body, the better your long-term outcomes.

Grateful for the opportunity to bring evidence-based longevity conversations to a wider audience. 📺
