Hyperbaric Oxygen for Diabetes

 

This is one of the best treatments for all diabetic patients. Diabetes is a disease of the small blood vessels. As our circulation becomes more compromised to various tissues and organs, then our symptoms progressively worsen eventually leading to organ failure and death. This is why hyperbaric oxygen therapy is so valuable for all diabetic patients.
Hyperbaric oxygen works has the ability to cause new blood vessels to be formed to any damaged tissue with less oxygen tensions. This process however takes adaptation time by the body. Immediate effects can be seen however it is the long-term effects that we are trying to achieve. That is why I would recommend 40 HBOT treatments with treatments lasting 60 minutes in duration and performed up to 2 times per day.
Hyperbaric oxygen also helps to lower blood sugar by increasing cellular sensitivity to insulin. It also is greatly beneficial in treating osteomyelitis and cellulites, preventing systemic toxicity and permanent disability. With chronic diabetes, there is impaired circulation, leading to reduced wound healing capability and ulcerations. Oxygen under pressure also increases the amount of oxygen available to these ulcerated areas, leading to increased fibroblast activities and hence the closing of wounds. Research has shown that hyperbaric oxygenation can result in regeneration of pancreatic islets of langerhans, the cells which produce insulin. Additionally, with the creation of new blood vessels, it is quite obvious how that can benefit.
