"Hyperbaric Fitness simply exists to encourage health and wellness through simulated diving. We are a home business and have grown to the point of much needed expansion. We began our journey in 2009. We simulate scuba diving for health and wellness in the grand tradition of the late, great Jacques Cousteau." - Joe Mabe

Hyberbaric Oxygen for Your Health
|
|
Several years ago, one of my clients told me he regularly visited
Hyperbaric Fitness, LLC
, for treatments to help with his Lyme disease.
In the ensuing years, several other of my clients told me they were getting regular hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) at the same center for a variety of reasons; many, you name it, from cancer to simply assisting with wellness.
People kept saying some rendition of this:
"Becky, you have to meet Joe Mabe... you would really enjoy knowing each other; you have a lot in common."
Well.
A couple of weeks ago, one of my clients who uses Hyperbaric Fitness had just barely walked out of my office following an appointment, when my phone rang, and it was
Joe Mabe
. My client and I had just been discussing her upcoming "detoxification day," which included a two-day herbal prep, then in one day two HBO treatments and a massage. I started asking her more questions about how HBOT is done, what it feels like, how she felt it was impacting her health, etc.
No sooner had she left the office than the phone rang. Joe and I had a great conversation. Later that week, he and his daughter Sara, who is very involved in the business, met me in my office. Again, a wonderful conversation. I asked Joe if he would be willing to be my guest on my radio program, and he said, "YES!"
Please join us today at noon on WKBK, as I pick Joe's brain about hyperbaric oxygen therapy and how we can use it to improve our health, specific applications, and help maintain good health!

How Does a Hyperbaric Chamber Work?
|
|
A hyperbaric chamber is a device used to deliver hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), which is the intake of oxygen-rich or oxygen-pure air. Though considered controversial early in its development, the hyperbaric chamber has become an accepted treatment for a variety of conditions, from carbon monoxide poisoning to promoting injury recovery. Modern chambers can either be hard or soft, that is, either a rigid pressure vessel or a portable, tent-like apparatus.
The basic principle behind hyperbaric chamber therapy is that cells repair themselves more efficiently when exposed to a higher oxygen content via the blood. It was first developed as a treatment for air embolisms known as the bends, which is a condition in which nitrogen bubbles form in the blood as a result of quick pressure change, suffered often by deep sea divers who surface too quickly. HBOT serves the dual-purpose of preventing oxygen starvation in the cells, while eliminating the excess nitrogen from the blood.
Less intense treatments were quickly discovered to be beneficial in other, non-emergency applications. Sitting in an oxygen rich environment for several hours at a time, over a period of days and weeks, was found to promote general healing in addition to helping a number of specific conditions. In a U.S. hospital, the average cost for an hour's worth of hyperbaric treatment ranges anywhere from $1,000 to $2,000 US Dollars (USD). Much of this cost is increasingly covered by insurance, as the list of afflictions treatable with HBOT has grown considerably through the first decade of the 21st century. Ocular and limb degeneration due to diabetes, slow-healing or necrotic wounds, and skin grafts are just a few of the problems found to respond favorably to HBOT.

Doctor's Gagged As Feds Launch Censorship Campaign
|
"The FDA, FTC, Department of Justice, and some state attorneys general have launched a coordinated censorship campaign that prevents medical and naturopathic doctors from communicating their extensive knowledge about how to stay healthy during the pandemic using natural medicine. The actions of these federal agencies will lead to more COVID-19 infections and death. We have to fight back to preserve our right to stay healthy, naturally."
