WHAT IS HYPERBARIC OXYGEN THERAPY?
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is the medical use of oxygen at a higher level than the oxygen concentration in the atmosphere. It involves staying in a pressurized environment for a certain amount of time, allowing the oxygen molecules to dissolve into the bloodstream. This leads to a whole host of positive cellular and physiological effects.
Treatments usually last 60-90 minutes, with the patient lying down and relaxed in the chamber.
WHAT IS PULSED ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD TECHNOLOGY?
Pulsed Electromagnetic FIeld technology (PEMF) is a general wellness modality with a variety of benefits. The pulsing field introduces an electromagnetic charge to the cells, stimulating and exercising them. It utilizes sophisticated generators and a variety of application accessories to introduce electromagnetic fields through clothing and skin, and into the body.
Treatments usually last 40 minutes, with the patient either lying down or sitting up relaxed on the PEMF mats.
