Episode 4: Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Autoimmunity, Lyme & Chronic Illness
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy, or HBOT, is a safe and powerful tool to speed up healing that is finally starting to gain traction in the U.S.
In today's episode, Dr. Grace Johnstone shares what hyperbaric oxygen therapy is, how it promotes regeneration, and how it can be used to treat chronic illnesses.
Dr. Grace is the founder and president of Hyperbaric Vermont and is certified in Hyperbaric and Undersea Medicine. Grace came to hyperbaric medicine through her own experience with Lyme disease which resulted in meningitis and radiculoneuritis. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy brought her from being completely incapacitated back to the chiropractic practice she loves, the active lifestyle she enjoys, and the energy and determination to share this powerful healing modality with others. She is committed to educating people about hyperbaric therapy and is working to make it more affordable and readily available to people in the community who can benefit from it.

Dr. Grace Johnstone’s health tip: Create time to really drop into a state of self awareness on a physical, mental, emotional level. Take stock and identify what you're feeling, how you're feeling, and where all of those feelings, physical, mental and emotional come together.
