Erectile Dysfunction

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is known to provide healing for a wide range of indications, including diabetic foot ulcers, delayed radiation injury, chronic bone infections and failed skin grafts.

HBOT is a natural, holistic therapy that uses pure oxygen to heal damaged body tissue and promote faster and more effective recovery. Now, a new study shows promise for a new indication—erectile dysfunction.

Researchers concluded:

"HBOT can induce penile angiogenesis and improve erectile function in men suffering from ED.

HBOT reverses the basic common pathophysiology, atherosclerosis and decreased penile perfusion, responsible for most of ED cases."

This research is very promising, especially because, as the researchers note, HBOT "can be considered even years after the onset of ED and in men with unsatisfactory response to PDE5Is" (pharmaceuticals used to treat ED, such as Viagra, Levitra, or Cialis). Accordingly, rather than turn to risky and uncertain surgical procedures, or ineffective pills, those suffering from chronic ED may benefit from the all-natural, non-invasive HBOT.
