Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) can be effective in improving the symptoms and quality of life of those suffering from Long Hauler Syndrome.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy and COVID Long Haulers Syndrome
Ever since the pandemic, the effects of the disease linger in a substantial number (between 10 to as much 30%) of patients for months. The vast majority of long-haulers test negative for COVID-19, despite having lingering symptoms.
A recent review appearing in Physiological Reports in February 2021 describes a significant role of tissue hypoxia and inflammation in creating these lasting symptoms. This review suggests that blood vessel damage and impaired oxygen delivery related to COVID-19 play a role in mood changes and cognitive difficulties that people with the disease face during illness and recovery.
ARE YOU A LONG HAULER?
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has been considered a potential way of relief for individuals experiencing
lingering symptoms from long haulers:
- Anti-Inflammatory Effects: Long-hauler syndrome often involves persistent inflammation. HBOT has demonstrated anti-inflammatory properties, potentially aiding in reducing inflammation associated with prolonged symptoms.
- Tissue Repair and Regeneration: HBOT may enhance tissue repair and regeneration by increasing oxygen
levels in the bloodstream. - Improved Oxygenation: By breathing oxygen in a pressurized chamber, HBOT increases the amount of oxygen the blood carries. This may help improve oxygenation in tissues and organs, potentially supporting recovery from the effects of long haulers.
- Enhanced Immune Response: HBOT has been suggested to modulate the immune system. In the context of long-hauler syndrome, where immune dysregulation is observed, HBOT might play a role in optimizing the immune response.
- Mitigation of Neurological Symptoms: Some long-hauler patients experience neurological symptoms. HBOT’s neuroprotective effects and potential to stimulate repair mechanisms may contribute to addressing cognitive clarity and mental focus.
- Energy Production Support: Individuals with long-hauler syndrome often report persistent fatigue. HBOT may aid cellular energy production by increasing oxygen availability, helping alleviate fatigue-related symptoms, and improving sleep quality and overall wellness.
