The
Gas Laws of Physics state that more gas will dissolve in a
liquid in the presence of pressure. A can of soda is a
vessel that contains a sweetened liquid. When held under
pressure, the gas (CO2) dissolves in the liquid, producing
soda.
This concept may also be applied to HBOT
in that the hyperbaric chamber is the pressurized vessel.
The body’s fluids become the liquid and the dissolvable gas
is oxygen. When oxygen dissolves in the blood stream, it
travels wherever the blood travels, effectively saturating
all tissues. The delivery of oxygen using pressure does not
require the use of red blood cells. As pressure increases,
more oxygen is pushed into the tissues.
Inside a pressurized chamber the body
begins to receive a healing dose of oxygen through the
body’s fluids and plasma even if the blood vessel system to
the needed tissue is compromised and/or constricted.
Medical insurance, Medicare & Medicaid do
not reimburse for many diagnoses for which there is strong
evidence of benefit with HBOT. Sara’s Garden is dedicated to providing quality
services to those who are under insured, medically limited
and/or financially unable to acquire services elsewhere. Clients are
treated for elective, scheduled treatment rather than
emergency treatment.
