Hyperbaric Therapy for Auto Immune Diseases
Journal Title: International Journal of Current Science Research and Review - Year 2025, Vol 8, Issue 01
Abstract
An autoimmune disease arises when the immune system mistakenly targets the body’s own tissues, causing damage rather than providing protection. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) involves the administration of 100% pure oxygen within a specialized environment known as a hyperbaric chamber. While atmospheric air contains only 21% oxygen, HBOT leverages increased air pressure within the chamber to enhance the lungs’ ability to absorb oxygen. This elevated oxygen intake delivers vital oxygen to tissues, promoting healing and aiding in the fight against certain infections. HBOT operates through multiple mechanisms: it reduces inflammation, combats infections, and facilitates the repair of damaged tissues. The therapy’s pure oxygen content supports the immune system in combating bacteria while stimulating the production of stem cells. These stem cells play a pivotal role in generating various cell types essential for bodily functions, including blood cells, brain cells, and muscle cells. In essence, HBOT fosters tissue repair and enhances overall immune functionality.
