Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) stands at the forefront of functional, anti-aging medical innovation. Originally used to treat conditions such as carbon monoxide poisoning and air or gas embolism, this modality is now emerging as a promising therapeutic option for a wide variety of health conditions. HBOTu2019s versatility makes it ideal for tailored protocols based on a patientu2019s unique needs u2014 especially beneficial for women who have evolving healthcare priorities across their lifespans.
By leveraging oxygenu2019s restorative properties to offer drug-free healing, HBOT activates regenerative physiological processes that optimize female health and well-being. Specific applications currently under investigation include supporting hormonal balance, reproductive health, and weight management, among many other potential uses. HBOT protocols are also being developed to target autoimmune disorders, metabolic conditions, and age-related decline in women.
Last weekend, A4M hosted the largest anti-aging medicine event ever, gathering over 5,500 guests, 120 globally renowned speakers and educators, and 400 market-shaping companies. Delivering four full days of cutting-edge science, the latest research, and meaningful, practical education, LongevityFest 2022 marked a pivotal point in A4Mu2019s history and that of the specialty itself.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy improved cerebral blood flow by up to 23%, alleviating vascular dysfunction and amyloid burden in elderly patients. The treatment also improved memory by 16.5% according to a study published in Aging.
Characterized by the progressive loss of physiological capacity resulting in impaired functioning and susceptibility to diseases, the biological aging process at a cellular level has two key hallmark elements: telomere length (TL) shortening and cellular senescence. A variety of therapeutic methods aimed at reversing or slowing down this process continues to be investigated while a novel treatment shows promise as a specialized form of oxygen therapy that may be able to reverse the aforementioned biological markers of aging.
