Fracture Healing
What is Fracture Healing?
Fracture healing is the body’s natural process of repairing a broken bone. It involves three main stages: inflammation, where the body responds to the injury; the reparative phase, where new bone tissue is formed; and the remodeling phase, where the bone structure is strengthened. Proper immobilization, often with casts or braces, and adherence to medical guidance contribute to successful fracture healing. In some cases, surgical intervention may be necessary to align and stabilize the broken bones.
Fracture Healing Redefined: A Dual Approach with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy and Cryotherapy at Active Clinic
At Active Clinic, we recognise the challenges that come with fractures and the importance of a comprehensive approach to healing. Introducing a groundbreaking dual therapy approach that combines the healing powers of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) and Cryotherapy, we are redefining the standards for fracture recovery.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) for Fracture Healing:
Immerse yourself in the transformative benefits of oxygen. HBOT at Active Clinic is designed to accelerate the healing of fractures by leveraging the following mechanisms:
Enter a pressurised chamber filled with pure oxygen, creating an oxygen-rich environment that enhances cellular regeneration. This infusion of oxygen directly contributes to the accelerated healing of bones. Scientific Reference: Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 2018
HBOT has been shown to stimulate osteoblast activity, promoting the formation of new bone tissue. This is especially crucial for fractures, facilitating a robust and resilient healing process. Scientific Reference: Journal of Trauma and Acute Care Surgery, 2019
Fractures often come with inflammation. HBOT’s anti-inflammatory properties help reduce swelling, alleviate pain, and create an optimal environment for the body to heal. Scientific Reference: Undersea & Hyperbaric Medicine, 2021
Post-Fracture Recovery with HBOT:
Fractures may involve damage to surrounding soft tissues. HBOT supports the rapid healing of these tissues, ensuring a holistic recovery from the effects of the injury. Scientific Reference: Journal of Plastic Surgery and Hand Surgery, 2019
The oxygen-rich environment created by HBOT has antimicrobial effects, reducing the risk of infections associated with fractures and ensuring a clean and sterile healing environment. Scientific Reference: Journal of Wound Care, 2019
By expediting the healing process, HBOT at Active Clinic aims to restore mobility and function faster, allowing you to resume your daily activities with confidence. Scientific Reference: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology, 2020
Cryotherapy for Targeted Relief and Enhanced Recovery:
Experience the revitalising effects of cold therapy. Cryotherapy at Active Clinic complements HBOT by providing focused relief and further accelerating the recovery journey:
Cryotherapy targets pain receptors and reduces inflammation, providing immediate relief and minimising swelling commonly associated with fractures. Scientific Reference: Journal of Athletic Training, 2017
The controlled cold exposure in Cryotherapy stimulates vasoconstriction and vasodilation, improving blood circulation. This aids in delivering essential nutrients to the fracture site for optimal recovery. Scientific Reference: International Journal of Sports Medicine, 2015
Cryotherapy supports the healing of soft tissues surrounding the fracture, ensuring a holistic recovery process, and preventing complications. Scientific Reference: Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2018
