Why choose BaroMedical for Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment? 

Because BaroMedical is the only private facility in BC offering hyperbaric therapy in Health Canada approved oxygen chambers, supervised by healthcare professionals trained in hyperbaric medicine.

Treatment Differentiation:

At BaroMedical, we prioritize both safety and effectiveness throughout your hyperbaric oxygen therapy program. We compress our hyperbaric chambers with 100% medical-grade oxygen to deliver higher concentrations of oxygen compared to air-filled chambers. This results in a more potent therapy, minimizing the number of sessions required for optimal results.

Our facilities use Health Canada and BC Safety Authorities approved equipment, as evidenced by the diplomas proudly displayed in our front office.  Furthermore, our equipment undergoes regular comprehensive overhauls by international service specialists certified by the chamber manufacturer.

Be cautious of facilities that offer air-base therapy using non-licensed, unserviced, and outdated equipment. Such practices pose significant safety risks, jeopardizing the well-being of both clients and operators alike. Choose BaroMedical for a treatment experience rooted in safety, efficacy, and cutting-edge technology.

Expertise Matters: 

At BaroMedical, we take pride in the hyperbaric medical training and extensive expertise of our staff, collectively spanning decades of hyperbaric medicine. This wealth of knowledge guarantees our clients receive unparalleled care and attention throughout their sessions.

Hygiene Assurance: 

Concerned about cleanliness? BaroMedical goes the extra mile by cleaning our chambers with pure medical-grade oxygen  efficiently eliminate anaerobic bacteria that cannot thrive in an oxygen-rich environment. 

Exercise caution with air-compressed chambers, as lax sanitation procedures or communal mask sharing may lead to bacterial growth.

Cost Comparison: 

Wondering why BaroMedical treatment seems pricier than other facilities? The distinction lies in our commitment to have highly trained hyperbaric medical staff carefully screen every client in order to  customize an effective personalized therapy program. This same staff is present at every chamber session, utilizing pure medical-grade oxygen for hyperbaric chamber compression.

In contrast, cost-cutting measures often involve using ambient air in the chamber, necessitating clients to breathe oxygen through masks in smaller quantities, with non-medically trained staff overseeing chamber operations.

Long-COVID recovery with hyperbaric oxygen therapy

   


Hyperbaric oxygen therapy improves neurocognitive functions and symptoms of post‑COVID condition: randomized controlled trial

A recent study from Israel shows that 40 hyperbaric oxygen sessions can significantly improve neurocognitive functions and symptoms in patients suffering from post-COVID-19 condition.  

This randomized, sham control, double blind clinical trial was conducted by the Shai Efrati and Amir Haddany's research group at the Sagol Center for Hyperbaric Medicine and Research and School of Neuroscience, at the Tel-Aviv University in Tel‑Aviv, Israel.  This is the latest addition to a leading research of the Israeli scientists supporting evidence that hyperbaric oxygenation or HBOT improves the brain plasticity in people with fibromyalgia , traumatic brain injury TBI and stroke as well as in healthy senior individuals.

Results of the study showed improvement in global cognitive function, attention and executive power, elevated energy levels, better sleep, reduced anxiety and depression, and overall systemic pain. These clinical improvements were associated with significant improvement in oxygenation leading to increased perfusion of the brain and microstructural changes confirmed with MRI of the brain. The authors conclude that  "HBOT’s beneficial effect may be attributed to increased brain perfusion and neuroplasticity in regions associated with cognitive and emotional roles."

Post Covid-19 or long Covid condition is defined as a myriad of symptoms including psychological, physical, emotional that are continuing or even new developing more than three months after getting Covid-19. Usual symptoms are trouble breathing and cough, heart problems with chest pain and palpitations, digestive problems with diarrhea and stomach pain, trouble thinking and concentrating ("brain fog"), headaches, anxiety, depression, reduced executive function, sleep problems and systemic widespread pain. The induced damage of infection with Covid-19 reaches cellular levels with hypoxia, inflammation and ischemia. This last study confirms the neuroplasticity effects of HBOT, including anti-inflammatory, mitochondrial function restoration, increased perfusion via angiogenesis.

The benefits of hyperbaric oxygenation in post Covid -19 infection and infections in general are in its role as powerful and non invasive systemic therapy that is also an excellent adjunctive therapy to other medical and natural treatments and therapies.

Two exciting studies recently emerged from Israel with evidence suggesting that hyperbaric oxygen therapy can be effective in promoting cognitive performance and reverse markers of cellular agingYou can access the studies below.

COVID-19 recovery with hyperbaric oxygen therapy

Clinical trials has commenced in Israel under the guidance of Dr. Shai Efrati to investigate effective use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in COVID-19 recovery. 

The trials are focusing on addressing long-term sequela symptoms of COVID exposure: cognitive impairment, fatigue, sleep disorders, smell and taste disorders, pain and more. 

The research group is hypothesizing COVID-19 can cause neuroinflammation and micro-infarcts leading to local hypoxia, specifically neurological hypoxia. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy will be used to reverse hypoxia, reduce neuroinflammation, and induce neuroplasticity.
