The Air We Breathe

People clean the outside of their bodies, but rarely do they clean the inside! This is a well-known culprit of sickness and dis-ease. In order to eliminate the body of sickness and disease, one must find elemental balance through the means of purification before the body can fully detoxify itself. And since we are only REtoxing with every breath we take… this turns into a routine practice.

One way to find Elemental balance is through raising the oxygen levels in your body to provide ‘Space’ for healing. Oxygen is one of the most abundant elements in the universe, which makes it a bit ironic, then, that people with breathing problems are unable to get enough of it. But when the air we breathe is laced with toxic chemicals, its no wonder our bodies can’t process the intake. The body needs to maintain a normal oxygen level, which requires a certain amount of circulating oxygen in the blood at all times to effectively nourish the cells, tissues and organs. Your body needs oxygen to work properly, so if your oxygen levels are too low, your body may not work the way it is supposed to. In addition to difficulty breathing, you can experience confusion, dizziness, chest pain, headache, rapid breathing and a racing heart. This can lead to debilitating conditions that are hard to reverse once the body experiences them.

A great addition to your self care routine could lie in the inclusion of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. . The oxygen under pressure actually aides the body in the elimination of excess fluids and swelling and with that release of inflammation, harmful chemicals and toxins are carried out of the cells and out of the body. Here is a breakdown of how Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy can help the body get rid of harmful toxins:

Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment Detox Benefits

  • Decreasing Levels of Inflammatory Biochemicals

  • Up-regulation of Key Antioxidant Enzymes to Decrease Oxidative Stress

  • Increased Oxygenation to Functioning Mitochondria

  • Increased Production of New Mitochondria

  • Improvement of the Immune and Autoimmune systems

  • Decreasing the Bacterial and Yeast Load Systemically and Gastrointestinal System

  • Increases the Production of Stem Cell in Bone Marrow with Transfer to the Central Nervous System

  • Direct Production of Stem Cells by Certain Areas in the Brain

  • Increased Production of Serotonin

  • Increase in Collagen Production for the Skin

 

Increasing the flow of oxygen throughout the body really boosts the mitigation of certain dis-eases by increasing the body’s healing mechanisms. By providing this abundance of oxygen to the cells in the body, therefore purifying it, the internal environment is no longer a good host for the condition to thrive in. Here is a list of conditions that the FDA approved Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy could help treat:

  • Diabetes

  • Cancer

  • Lyme Disease

  • Anemia

  • Tissue Damage

  • Arthritis

  • Cerebral Palsy

  • Seizures

  • Anoxic Brain Injury

  • Adrenal Fatigue

  • Fibromyalgia

  • Sclerodoma

  • Concussion

  • Interstitial Cystitis

  • Multiple Sclerosis

  • Migraines

  • Pancreatitis

  • Spinal Cord Injuries

  • Stroke

  • Sports Injuries

  • Retinitis Pigmentosis

  • Crohn’s Disease

  • Ulcerative Colitis

  • Sports Injuries

  • Inflammatory Bowel Disease

  • COPD

  • Thyroid Diseases

As we can see, the list is pretty extensive on what having an abundance of purified Oxygen can do for the body when a dis-ease is present. One of the main concerns that everyone faces is the breathing in of toxins on a daily basis… it is inescapable. When looking at this from an Elemental standpoint, the Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy resembles Space (or Ether). Pairing Space and Air (Cryotherapy) proves to be very beneficial for someone who is suffering from chronic pain & inflammation, neurological imbalances, and adrenal gland issues.
