Did you know that certain medical conditions — like rheumatoid arthritis, chronic fatigue syndrome, and migraines — disproportionately affect women?
These health issues are often linked to the constant hormonal changes women experience throughout life, such as during puberty, menstruation, pregnancy, and menopause. Hormonal fluctuations, particularly in oestrogen and progesterone, can trigger inflammation, joint pain, and immune responses that make women more prone to these conditions.
For example, 75 per cent of those diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis are women. Women are also four times more likely to develop chronic fatigue syndrome and three times more likely to suffer from debilitating migraines. This makes it critical to explore treatments that address the underlying issues of inflammation and an overactive immune system.
Hyperbaric oxygenation works by increasing oxygen intake under pressure, allowing oxygen to reach even the most difficult-to-reach tissues. Scientific studies have shown that this extra oxygen reduces inflammation, speeds healing, and modulates the immune system. This makes it extremely beneficial for autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and chronic fatigue syndrome. HBOT also improves circulation, helping with vascular issues that contribute to migraines and pain.
Given the health challenges women face, HBOT can offer some relief and an enhanced quality of life. It’s not that HBOT cures autoimmune conditions, however it softens and minimises known symptoms and complications. HBOT offers real improvements by reducing inflammation, boosting immunity, and enhancing circulation, ultimately improving quality of life.
