If you’ve been inspired by Galway’s Race Week, you’ll be glad to know that OxyGeneration understands the drive for peak sporting performance.
Whether you’re training for your next race, pushing for a personal best, or simply staying active, hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT ) could support you with your goals.
HBOT is already known to support recovery from injuries. However, clinical research has revealed that it can also help to improve physical performance.
One study found that, when compared to placebo treatment, athletes aged 40-50 who had regular HBOT sessions showed:
· Higher markers of oxygen uptake and endurance (aerobic capacity and anaerobic threshold ).
· Better performance in exercise tests.
· Changes within the mitochondria inside the muscles, helping to improve muscular function during exercise.
These changes suggest that HBOT can enhance energy metabolism and endurance while physically active.
HBOT works by delivering almost pure oxygen. This increases the amount of oxygen that dissolves in the blood, helping the muscles repair and regenerate, and aiding faster recovery from exercise.
You don’t have to be a professional to benefit from HBOT. The treatment can support all active lifestyles, whether you play five-a-side on the weekend, cycle to work, or are returning to fitness after a break.
OxyGeneration’s modern clinic in Galway is purpose-built for comfort. Sessions are safe, painless, and relaxing. Each treatment lasts around 90 minutes, supervised by a team of experts.
The clinic accepts referrals, works with Irish Life Health and other insurance providers, and has a variety of session times to fit around busy schedules.
Whether you’re healing from an injury, chasing a goal or simply want to feel stronger, HBOT can support your journey.
