HBOT has been a well known healing method that can target areas of the body that cannot be regenerated without appropriate oxygen levels in the tissue. Most illnesses and injuiries that have occurred often linger at the cellular or tissue level. In most cases, such as circulatory problems, non-healing wounds, and stroke, adequate oxygen cannot penetrate the damaged area and fail to activate the body’s natural healing ability. HBOT on the other hand, gives your body the optimum oxygen level for your body to trigger healing naturally.

At the present, there are 14 HBOT indications that are approved by the U.S. FDA and UHMS (Underwater Hyperbaric Medicine Society). The U.K. has 14 "approved" indications, Japan 20, China 53, Canada, Germany, and Russia 85. In the latter three countries the "approved" lists contain several neurologic disease indications which translate as "severe spinal cord disorders", "acute and severe hypoxic brain disorders", "severe spinal cord injury", "Bell's palsy", "Multiple Sclerosis", "cranial traumas", "viral encephalitis", etc. These indicators are the specific types of diagnoses and conditions that have been proven to be effectively treated by HBOT.
