Improvement in attention & processing speed

Randomized controlled trial in healthy older adults showed significant cognitive enhancements including memory, processing speed, and executive function improvements correlated with increased cerebral blood flow.

Mechanism

HBOT increases regional cerebral blood flow, promotes neuroplasticity through BDNF upregulation, reduces neuroinflammation, and supports hippocampal neurogenesis — all mechanisms diminished with normal aging.
