Hyberbaric Oxygen Treatment (HBOT) has been associated with improving a diverse range of conditions, mostly used for post surgical and injury recovery. More recently though it is being used to provide anti-inflammatory and immune support in conditions such as asthma. Essentially it involves sitting or lying in a pressurised chamber and breathing in approximately 95% of concentrated oxygen under atmospheric pressure which is reported to increase cell function and repair on a cellular level.
We were super intrigued about this and so was our third guest of the season, the amazing Jo Good, radio presenter, broadcast journalist and YouTube sensation. Jo has suffered from really bad bouts of asthma since having COVID so we thought she would be the perfect candidate to go into the chamber!
The rules:
Simple really. Jo must complete two HBOT sessions at The Vital Practise in W1 @thevitalpractice https://www.thevitalpractice.co.uk
Can HBOT be a way to help Jo back onto the road to recovery? And does her inner skeptic actually have a change of perspective after going into the chamber?
Listen in to find out!
