In this session, participants will delve into the fundamentals of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), focusing on its physiological effects and its application in neurological rehabilitation. We will explore how HBOT works, the pressures required to induce therapeutic changes, and the unique properties of oxygen under pressure compared to normobaric oxygen. The discussion will include an overview of the laws of physics governing HBOT and how they influence treatment outcomes.

Participants will compare and contrast HBOT with other oxygen-mediated therapies such as oxygen supplementation, Exercise With Oxygen Therapy (EWOT), and hypoxic training in longer course formats. This session will equip attendees with practical knowledge on how to be savvy shoppers when purchasing a chamber and safely and effectively incorporate HBOT into their clinical practice.

Ideal for healthcare professionals, this presentation provides the scientific foundation and practical tools needed to harness the benefits of oxygen therapy for patients with neurological and other health conditions. However, because certain types of HBOT are commercially available, this presentation is also great for the health-seeking member of the general population.
