How Does Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Work? • Dr Scott Sherr

Author: Gary Kirwan August 8, 2019 Duration: 1:10:20

Board Certified Internal Medicine Physician with a Hyperbaric Oxygen Medicine certification, Dr. Scott Sherr M.D, is today’s guest interview.

Scott describes what HBOT (i.e.hyperbaric medicine or hyperbaric oxygen therapy) is and how it works.

He teaches us about oxygen saturation and the benefits of hyperbaric chambers: decreased inflammation, reversing hypoxia, killing bugs and releasing stem cells.

We then find out about oxidative stress and ways to protect yourself as well as important risk factors and contraindications to consider.

We also go into discussing the limits of pulse oximetry, how different chamber types and pressures target different goals/conditions, enhancing the experience, intermittent hypoxia, using an integrative approach to medicine, cancer and more.

In BioHackers Lab: Health Show for How to Live Your Best Life, host Gary Kirwan guides conversations that move beyond generic wellness advice. This podcast operates on the principle that effective health strategies are deeply personal; what works for one person's gut, mind, or body might not work for another. Each episode delves into practical, often nuanced, approaches to customising your lifestyle, drawing on global perspectives from individuals pioneering interesting methods to improve health. Discussions naturally explore a wide spectrum, from the roles of specific diets and supplements to the integration of purposeful exercise and recovery techniques. The aim is to provide listeners with a diverse toolkit of ideas and experiences, empowering them to experiment and find what truly optimises their own unique system. Tuning into this podcast is an invitation to a continuous, personal experiment-a process of biohacking your way toward a more vibrant and resilient version of yourself. It’s about parsing the noise, understanding the underlying mechanisms of your wellbeing, and making incremental, sustainable changes that compound into a significantly better quality of life.
