The Science of Hyperbaric Oxygen
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) involves breathing 100% pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber at 1.5 to 3 times normal atmospheric pressure. Under these conditions, blood oxygen levels increase by up to 1,200%, flooding every tissue in the body with healing oxygen. This triggers powerful regenerative processes including stem cell mobilization, neurogenesis, angiogenesis (new blood vessel formation), and dramatic reduction of inflammation.
At Sanctuary Tulum, HBOT is a daily component of the Pouyan Method™, working synergistically with NAD+ IV therapy, stem cell therapy, and sacred plant medicine to create the optimal conditions for complete healing.
HBOT Benefits
- • Promotes neurogenesis — growth of new brain cells
- • Activates endogenous stem cells throughout the body
- • Reduces neuroinflammation caused by substance abuse
- • Accelerates healing from traumatic brain injury
- • Enhances the effects of ibogaine and NAD+ therapy
- • Improves cognitive function, memory, and mental clarity
- • Supports immune system recovery and function
- • Promotes tissue repair and wound healing
- • Anti-aging benefits through telomere lengthening
HBOT for Addiction Recovery
Chronic substance abuse causes significant brain damage — reduced blood flow, neuronal death, white matter deterioration, and persistent inflammation. HBOT directly addresses all of these issues by increasing cerebral blood flow, stimulating neural repair, and creating an anti-inflammatory environment that supports lasting recovery.
When combined with ibogaine treatment and NAD+ therapy, HBOT dramatically enhances outcomes — helping the brain heal faster and more completely than any single therapy alone.
Conditions We Treat with HBOT
- • Addiction-related brain damage
- • Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)
- • PTSD and trauma
- • Stroke recovery
- • Autoimmune disorders
- • Lyme disease
- • Chronic fatigue syndrome
- • Anti-aging and longevity
