HYPERBARIC CHAMBER IN ALICANTE – SYNCROLAB
Hyperbaric chamber oxygen therapy, or hyperbaric chamber, is a non-invasive medical treatment that involves breathing high concentrations of oxygen into a high-pressure chamber.
The oxygen concentration in the air we normally breathe is around 20-21%. In this type of treatment, pure oxygen is used, with more than 90% concentration, at a pressure of 1.45 ATM.
This triggers hyperoxia that has different physiological effects beneficial to health.
HOW DOES HYPERBARIC OXYGEN THERAPY WORK?
Through Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) a high concentration of oxygen breathed through a mask in a pressurized environment is generated, which generates strong hyperoxia that corrects the hypoxic condition. Hypoxia is a deficiency of oxygen that affects the basic functions of the organism, giving rise to negative physiological responses that can be serious and even fatal.
Inside the hyperbaric chamber, the patient breathes high doses of O2, reaching hyperoxia. This causes the volume of dissolved oxygen in the blood plasma to increase, allowing oxygen to reach the brain, cartilage, bones, and tissues that do not receive it adequately.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF HYPEROXIA AT THE PHYSIOLOGICAL LEVEL?
Hyperoxia is a highly effective tool to correct hypoxia in different pathologies:
- Promotes angiogenesis, that is, stimulates and favors the formation of small blood vessels.
- The increase in oxygen in arteries and capillaries improves vasoconstriction
- Regulates oxidative stress and the inflammatory response, which contributes to reducing cell damage.
- Promotes osteogenesis and bone repair.
- Promotes the differentiation and release of stem cells, which improves tissue repair.
- Promotes the synthesis of collagen.
- Enhances antimicrobial activity.
- Increases cerebral blood flow and neuroprotection, decreasing inflammation in the Central Nervous System.
- Promotes the plasticity of the Nervous System, stimulating axonal and peripheral regeneration.

IN WHICH AREAS IS THE USE OF THE HYPERBARIC CHAMBER INDICATED?
SPORTS MEDICINE
Treatment using a hyperbaric chamber accelerates recovery and improves competitiveness.
- Promotes post-exercise recovery
- Reduces subacute fatigue syndrome and chronic fatigue
- Reduces injuries to ligaments, tendons and muscles
- Improve workouts
SUBACUTE AND CHRONIC PATHOLOGIES
This supplementary treatment reduces inflammation and edema, relieves pain, and improves perfusion, energy efficiency, and quality of life.
- Fibromyalgia
- Chronic fatigue
- Migraine
- Tinnitus
- Headaches
- Geriatrics
CENTRAL AND PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM DISORDERS
Treatment in a hyperbaric oxygenation chamber helps to reduce edema, spasticity, and tremors, redistributes blood flow and improves cerebral oxygenation, cognitive function, neuroprotection and quality of life.
- Multiple Sclerosis
- Parkinson’s desease
- Cerebrovascular accident (CVA)
- Cerebral palsy
HEALING AND WOUND HEALING
Hyperbaric oxygenation treatment accelerates healing, promotes angiogenesis, reduces inflammation and edema, stimulates collagen synthesis, triggers the immune response, and improves perfusion.
- Wounds
- Ulcers and diabetic foot
- Venous ulcers
- Post surgerical wounds
- Burns
- Implants and flaps
In addition to these pathologies, oxygenation treatment in a hyperbaric chamber has proven to be effective as an adjuvant in oncological diseases, rheumatoid diseases, for the cardiorespiratory system and to treat possible sequelae after Covid -19.
