Multiple Sclerosis
In multiple sclerosis, an abnormal response of the body’s immune system is directed against myelin—the fatty substance that surrounds and insulates the nerve fibers—as well as the nerve fibers themselves located in the brain, spinal cord and optic nerves.
Multiple sclerosis symptoms are variable and unpredictable but can include fatigue, vision problems, spasticity, walking difficulties, numbness or tingling, weakness, pain, bladder problems, and cognitive changes.
The use of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) to treat multiple sclerosis patients aims to relieve symptoms and to help prevent attacks and disabilities.
HBOT for Multiple Sclerosis
HBOT benefits patients with multiple sclerosis in the following ways:
- Reduces inflammation
- May reduce pain
- Modulates the immune system
- Increases energy
- May reduce spasticity
- May reduce cognitive impairment
