Exposure to harmful environmental and stress factors can contribute to the development of pathological conditions accompanied by hypoxia. As a result of impaired patency of blood vessels supplying organs with blood, oxygen deprivation occurs.
A cause of insufficient oxygen supply to tissues may be vascular spasm, local edema, inflammatory processes, atherosclerosis, etc. A contributing factor that provokes hypoxia is smoking and other chronic intoxications.
Barotherapy (normobaric and hyperbaric oxygenation) is an effective method that helps replenish oxygen deficiency at the cellular and tissue levels. Procedures in an air-oxygen pressure chamber provide a comprehensive beneficial effect on the body:
- elimination of the effects of hypoxia
- anti-inflammatory and anti-edema action
- accelerated wound healing
- increased resistance of the body
- significant reduction in recovery time
- improved quality of life in a range of chronic diseases
The “Barox” unit at the medical center of the Chernomorye Sanatorium features a spacious chamber and a large area of double-sided glazing, which helps prevent claustrophobic reactions in patients who are sensitive to enclosed spaces. An adjustable chair allows patients to choose a comfortable position during the session — they can sit or lie down inside the chamber with ease.
At the sanatorium, barotherapy is used both as an independent treatment method and in combination with other therapies. These procedures serve as an effective complement to the main treatment, helping to accelerate recovery and rehabilitation.
