Back to client websitePost-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is characterized by changes in both brain activity and microstructural integrity. Cumulative evidence demonstrates that hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) induces neuroplasticity and case-series studies indicate its potentially positive effects on PTSD. Following a series of studies it was shown that HBOT improved symptoms, brain microstructure and functionality in veterans with treatment resistant PTSD.
