Understand the science behind hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) with someone who’s needed it, used it and prescribes it to his patients on a daily basis and how this therapy plays a role in regen med.
In this episode of RegenaCast, host Sean sits down with Dr. Alex Borsand to discuss hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) and its pivotal role in regenerative medicine. Dr. Borsand, whose medical journey was transformed after a personal injury led him to HBOT, shares his insights on how oxygen, the most vital nutrient, can accelerate healing and recovery, particularly when combined with stem cell therapy.
Dr. Borsand explains how HBOT works by increasing oxygen saturation in the body, bypassing red blood cells and forcing oxygen into the plasma to reach tissues with poor blood supply. This technique has been shown to stimulate stem cell mobilization, decrease inflammation, and promote faster healing, particularly for joint injuries, traumatic brain injuries (TBI), and chronic conditions like rheumatoid arthritis. He also discusses the science behind using pressure dosing for different therapeutic effects, including growing new blood vessels and enhancing stem cell therapy outcomes.
The conversation highlights how HBOT is used both before and after stem cell treatments to maximize effectiveness and reduce inflammation, making it a powerful tool in sports recovery, anti-aging, and cognitive health. Dr. Borsand also touches on the history of hyperbaric therapy and how modern research has shown its ability to lengthen telomeres and reduce biological age.
