Have you heard of a hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) dive table?

A dive table is a picture representation of what an HBOT session looked like.

It tells you the length of time it took to get to their treatment depth, as well as how long they were there.

And then it shows you the period of time it took to get back to the surface.

It'll also tell you what they were breathing. Were they breathing air or oxygen? Were they taking air brakes?

An air brake would be represented by stripes showing different gases that the patient was breathing over different periods of time.

A dive table is just a really easy way to show somebody a protocol in a singular picture.

And when you know everything about that journey, and you can duplicate that on your own.

So, it's a great tool to use to be able to share protocols with other practitioners.

Many people choose to do hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) long-term for a number of reasonsโ€ฆ but should those people still take breaks from HBOT, like Iโ€™ve suggested in the past?

With certain conditions that aren't necessarily going away, we'll use autoimmunity as one example, hyperbaric oxygen therapy is not the cure for autoimmunity, but many people with autoimmune conditions use HBOT and see certain benefits.

What this usually means is that we use it rather intensely to help a patient transition through certain issues and get to a point where they see resolution or reduction of certain symptoms.

And at the same time, if their disease is not going to go away, there could be a time period where maintenance treatments are really important.

In which case you absolutely might be using this tool months and months and years, and that would be appropriate.

But I donโ€™t suggest using it every day, seven days a week.

So even in somebody who's going to use it long term for years and years to come, thereโ€™s still going to be strategic breaks both during the week in between sessions, and/or larger breaks in between protocols while we're helping to keep their system more balanced and less inflamed.

Do You Just Want to try hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), but arenโ€™t sure how many sessions you need to see if it works for you?

We have a lot of people coming in asking, โ€œHey, there's nothing necessarily wrong with me, but I heard hyperbaric oxygen therapy might be good for meโ€ฆ how many sessions do I actually need to do?โ€

You should at least shoot for 10 sessions. That would be the absolute bare minimum. This is when the real benefits of HBOT start to kick in.

In a lot of cases, I might have someone do 3 per week for 2 weeks, and then 2 per week for 2 weeks. That would get 10 sessions in within the month.

Even more ideal, I might have them do 4 in the first week and then 3 the next 2 weeks. Then, those 10 sessions would be done in 3 weeks.

Then, Iโ€™d move them into more of a maintenance program.

However you chose to break it up, you do need to create a program within those first 3 to 4 weeks. This is the minimum time to get a cumulative response to start changing some of those cell signaling factors that we're talking about.

Are there certain foods that may interfere with your Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) treatments?

Weโ€™ve seen this question quite a bit when weโ€™re discussion the use (and avoidance) of antioxidants with HBOT.

So, should you avoid eating antioxidant rich foods like fruits and berries? Do you need to be concerned that your diet is going to potentially interfere with your therapy?

What I would say to that is unless you're eating an extraordinarily high amount of these foods, generally speaking, you can very safely mix blueberries and strawberries and other high antioxidant foods with your hyperbaric therapy without really interfering one way or the other.

When we're talking about using antioxidants as a way to either buffer or to facilitate the results of hyperbaric oxygen, we're talking about really high dose antioxidant use, which either supplements would be required or even potentially IV would be required in order to create enough antioxidant effect to make a difference there.

So as far as your food is concerned, I wouldn't worry about it at all.

LONG HAUL COVID

It's unfortunate that so many people are affected by this, but I am very grateful that some therapies, specifically something so simple and safe like HBOT, has the capacity to help these patients heal and recover from those long-term infections and the damage associated with it.

There are certain pieces of long haul COVID that are much more difficult to overcome as compared to other post-viral issues.

Some of those include:

- Increased tissue damage from the inflammatory response
- Lingering of the inflammation systemically in their system
- Changes to their capillaries or their vascular system
- Certain cardiovascular symptoms
- Certain neurological issues that are a result also of that hypoxia from the inflammation and capillary damage.

Is it appropriate to apply hyperbaric oxygen for long haul COVID? The short answer is yes, but these are the reasons why.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) has a very anabolic recovery, remodeling, and regenerative quality.

Once we start driving oxygen into circulation, we're helping to heal the lining of your blood vessels and to grow NEW blood vessels. That oxygen goes into those damaged cells and promotes an entire cellular and tissue healing response.

That healing response has the capacity to improve the cardiovascular function and to improve the damaged nerves as well (the neuropathies that we're seeing in patients in long haul COVID syndrome).

So, as you can see, HBOT absolutely can play a role in contributing to the healing effect of those suffering from long haul.

This post only has SOME of the high points, but if you want to hear more of how HBOT could help with Long-Haul COVID, check out our full video here:

If we're talking about soft chamber use, we're really not going to be talking about oxygen toxicity.

In a soft chamber at the pressures and the percentages of oxygen that are available, it would be very difficult to hit points of oxygen toxicity.

It's more just making sure you're getting the most benefit possible from the chamber.

Also, in a soft chamber environment, we're not necessarily concerned about other pressure related issues like, let's say, decompression sickness.

If you look at typical dive tables and you look at ten feet of seawater equivalent, which is what a soft chamber will typically run at, there's really no time period where you've exceeded the no decompression limit, requiring decompression stops from ten feet of water.

You could stay in a chamber an hour or 2 hours, 3 hours, and ultimately depressurize the chamber at a normal pace and not worry about getting decompression sickness or getting bent.

It's still just not recommended that you spend 4 to 6 or 8 hours in a chamber continuously, especially when we know that the benefits are so much greater by going in for short durations coming out and going back in.

Wondering if the pressure of the hyperbaric chamber affects your blood pressure? The answer may surprise you!

According to Pascal's Law, pressure applied to an enclosed fluid, like blood, gets transmitted equally in every direction. That means the pressure from the chamber is distributed uniformly throughout your body, without causing a major change in blood pressure.

While air-filled spaces like your ears or sinuses may feel the effects of the chamber's pressure, solid surfaces and liquids remain unaffected. So, when you enter a hyperbaric chamber, you'll notice the absence of pressure on your arms and legs, but you might feel it in those air-filled spaces.

Ultimately, it's a relatively safe treatment with minimal impact on blood pressure.

There are 3 different ways that there's great synergy between molecular hydrogen and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT).

Number one is the redox balancing-- the balancing of the oxidation
and reduction inside of our cells helping to make sure, as long as they stay in balance, we don't get an increase in free radical damage to our cells and our cellular membranes.

Next is the balance inside the mitochondria, because oxygen is a rate limiting step of ATP production, and the hydrogen gradient is a rate limiting step to ATP production as well. So, making sure we have enough of both of those gases will ensure the fact that the mitochondria have the ingredients that it needs to keep churning out ATP and making cellular energy.

Lastly, the third one is the synergy between HBOT and molecular hydrogen inside the gut, both of which can play a critical role in balancing the microbiome, making sure that our immune system and our digestive system stay robust, strong, and keep nourishing ourselves.

I donโ€™t use Methylene Blue every day, but I do use it frequently.

I use it primarily when I travel one because it helps me stay in a fasted state for a longer period of time, And two, because of its anti-microbial characteristics.

I also use it when I record a lot of videos or if I'm teaching and/or I'm writing a lot because I find that it really increases my cognition and my focus, Which allows me to be more productive and efficient with my time when I need to do a lot of work.

I do recommend cycling it: taking it for periods of time, not taking it for periods of time.

It is not a vitamin. It's not a necessary molecule required for our health. So, unlike something like vitamin D or vitamin C, that's literally a molecule that we require in our body for improved health and deficiency would lead to disease, Thereโ€™s no danger of deficiency of Methylene Blue.

However, it's a great neurotrophic that really helps to facilitate improved health, reduced oxidative stress and improve mental clarity.

Have you ever taken Methylene Blue and if so, what does your protocol look like?

Weโ€™ve had a lot of questions as to who shouldnโ€™t do Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)

There are 2 absolute contraindications for HBOT: The inability to equalize your ears, and pneumothorax. These people cannot go in a hyperbaric chamber.

But there are also a handful of other conditions that we would call relative contraindications. Theyโ€™re not a definite โ€œNoโ€, but depending on the severity of their issue, they may need to be cleared by a medical doctor within a certain specialty before deciding to begin HBOT.

Here are 5 of those relative contraindications:

1. Emphysema: patients would need to go to their pulmonologist to be cleared before they consider going into a hyperbaric chamber.

2. COPD: (especially moderate to severe COPD) This person would need to be checked and cleared to make sure that they're a candidate for HBOT.

3. Cancer: Everybody working with this patient should be on the same team so that they can work together to make sure it's going to be a successful journey for them. So, communicating with their Drs across the board is recommended before starting HBOT.

4. Blood disorders: These patients need to speak with their hematologist to be cleared before going into a chamber.

5. COVID (post-COVID especially): You may want to send this patient out for a quick chest X-ray to verify that they do not have any alveolar cysts and or a pneumothorax.

Does hyperbaric oxygen help those suffering from hearing loss?

We've treated many people with this issue and we've certainly seen a lot of very favorable results. How can it help?

First of all, the oxygen supply to the cochlea is not enormously sufficient. It doesn't take a lot of trauma or inflammation to start blocking it.

If we start to establish a little bit of inflammation or if there's an infection in the area or there's some amount of disruption of gas exchange, it doesn't take a lot of that disruption to all of a sudden become even mildly hypoxic.

As it becomes mildly hypoxic, we can start to see pretty significant changes in our ability to hear.

Using Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) (depending on how much pressure we use, what percentage of oxygen they're breathing, and the frequency and duration of the sessions) we can increase that concentration gradient somewhere between five and ten times, driving much more oxygen to that tissue and allowing it to HEAL.
Also, reducing the inflammation and helping to spark nerve regeneration.

Pretreating with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) before surgery is effective.

One example of this would be the Marx protocol. In this protocol, what they were doing was 30 sessions before having oral surgery and then ten sessions after the oral surgery. The result was a massive increase in healing rates and the overall success rate of the surgery.

As years went on, eventually they stopped doing the 30-session pretreatment and as a result, the effectiveness of this concept really plummeted quite a bit. After that happened, it became obvious that 30 pretreatment sessions were critical to the success rate of that surgery.
