Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is great in assisting energy production. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is an energy-carrying molecule found in the cells of all living things. The electron transport chain (ETC) creates ATP. Oxygen is a rate limiting step to ATP production. Meaning that, if we don’t have enough oxygen moving into the area to be the final electron acceptor in the ETC, the entire energy production process will stop. Oxygen is the final electron acceptor, which allows NAD to push more electrons from the initiation phase all the way back down to complex four (the final step in ATP production). So, oxygen plays an important role in this process. When you use HBOT and it delivers that increase in oxygen to your body, it helps to make sure that you can keep those cycles moving down the chain appropriately.

Oxygen is a cell signaling molecule. In other words, oxygen works to stimulate immune system activation, reduce inflammation, and upregulate growth factors and stem cells for repair and regeneration of tissue. It signals hormonal balance and neurotransmitter balance as well. There are two totally different conversations within the oxygen. One is oxygen as a fuel and the other one is oxygen as a cell signaler. When you go into the chamber, that’s the loading phase where we are increasing systemic oxygen carrying capacity. Then, when you get out of the chamber and there’s no longer this amount of pressure holding that oxygen in solution, that oxygen begins to escape. As that oxygen is escaping, that’s when it becomes a signaling agent to stimulate repair, regeneration, healing, reduction in inflammation and improved immune system function.

Fibromyalgia or fibromyalgia syndrome is a chronic pain disorder. Symptoms include widespread or localized muscle and joint pain, stiffness, swelling, and tenderness. Most people with fibromyalgia experience fatigue, sleep disturbances, headaches, anxiety, and memory problems. Some also report high sensitivity to noises, lights, smells, and temperature changes.

HBOT benefits patients with fibromyalgia in the following ways:
✅ Reduce pain and tenderness
✅ Promotes stem cell mobilization
✅ Alleviates sleep disturbances
✅ Allows for accelerated repair, recovery, and potential tissue regeneration

And HBOT comes with many less unwanted side effects!

🧠 Your Brain Doesn't Know Your Birthday. It Knows Your Biology.

Most people think their brain ages because they get older.

That's only part of the story.

Your brain actually ages based on your internal health.

If your biological age is older than your actual age, your risk of:
🧠 Stroke
🧠 Memory loss
🧠 Cognitive decline
🧠 Dementia
..begins to rise dramatically.

The good news?

Your brain is constantly responding to the choices you make.

Research shows that lowering your biological age helps protect the brain by:
✅ Improving blood flow
✅ Reducing chronic inflammation
✅ Supporting healthier metabolism
✅ Preserving memory and thinking ability
✅ Reducing structural brain damage over time

At Des Moines Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, one of the most powerful tools we use to support brain health is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT).

HBOT works by flooding your body with oxygen under gentle pressure, helping to:
🌬 Increase oxygen delivery to brain tissue
🩸 Stimulate the growth of new blood vessels
🧠 Support neuroplasticity (your brain's ability to heal and adapt)
🔥 Reduce inflammation
⚡ Improve cellular energy production
🛡 Help protect healthy brain cells

Your environment also matters. Chronic stress, poor nutrition, lack of movement, pollution, poor sleep, and metabolic dysfunction all accelerate brain aging.

The best strategy is to stack healthy habits together:
☀️ Get daily sunlight
🚶 Move your body
🥗 Improve your metabolism
😴 Prioritize sleep
💧 Stay hydrated
🧘 Manage stress
🌬 Support your brain with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Don't wait until memory problems or a stroke force you to think about your brain.

Protect it now so it can protect you for decades to come.
