Physical factors, emotional factors, and neurological disorders can all be causes of insomnia. Under insomnia, oxygen consumption increases. Oxygen is an essential substance in the body's metabolic process, and the production of energy, tissue repair, and stability of the internal and external environment all rely on its participation.
Under physiological conditions, the oxygen consumption of the brain accounts for 20% of the total body oxygen, while the weight of the brain only accounts for 2% to 3% of body weight. If you are a mental worker, the oxygen consumption of the brain far exceeds 20%. Because the brain consumes the most oxygen, it is most sensitive to hypoxia. When people experience mild hypoxia, they become excited, and the increased oxygen consumption in an excited state further exacerbates the hypoxia, forming a vicious cycle. It is difficult to overcome the dilemma of neurasthenia or insomnia solely through self-regulation measures such as exercise, diet, and lifestyle. At the beginning, taking sleeping pills may be effective, but as the medication time prolongs, the effect will become worse and the dosage will increase, and it will also cause various adverse reactions. As a green and side effect free treatment method, hyperbaric oxygen can quickly increase blood oxygen levels and break this vicious cycle.
Therapeutic mechanism
(1) Hyperbaric oxygen can rapidly increase blood oxygen levels and improve cerebral hypoxia: Patients with long-term neurasthenia, due to insufficient rest of the brain, will inevitably cause further increase in brain oxygen consumption. Under hyperbaric oxygen conditions, the oxygen content in the body can increase by about 10 times, rapidly improving hypoxia.
(2) Hyperbaric oxygen has a regulatory effect on the nervous system.
(3) Hyperbaric oxygen therapy has a therapeutic effect on certain underlying causes of insomnia.
