What is chronic fatigue syndrome?

Chronic fatigue syndrome (myalgic encephalomyelitis) is a complex disorder that causes extreme fatigue for at least six months. Symptoms of the disorder tend to worsen after activity, and you may not feel better even with rest.

The root cause of chronic fatigue syndrome isn’t well understood, but your genetic background may play a role. Additionally, emotional or physical trauma and infections can trigger chronic fatigue symptoms.

Clover Oxygen Hyperbarics and Wound Center provides hyperbaric oxygen therapy sessions for adults and adolescents aged 12 and up who are limited by ongoing fatigue and related symptoms.

The team uses supplemental oxygen to restore your energy levels and reduce your risk factors for additional complications.

What are the symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome?

In addition to persistent fatigue and low energy levels, chronic fatigue syndrome can cause:

Headaches
Memory problems
Muscle and joint pain
Difficulties thinking or making decisions
Dizziness with position changes

You might also experience tenderness in the lymph nodes in your armpits or neck and become extra sensitive to sounds, light, smells, and certain foods or medications.

Schedule a diagnostic evaluation at Clover Oxygen Hyperbarics and Wound Center if you or your child experience symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome.

The team may order diagnostic tests to rule out thyroid disease and other conditions that cause similar symptoms. They also determine if you’re a candidate for treatment with hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

How does hyperbaric oxygen therapy treat chronic fatigue syndrome?

The hyperbaric oxygen therapy available at Clover Oxygen Hyperbarics and Wound Center supports your recovery from chronic fatigue symptoms.

Treatment works by replenishing oxygen levels in your bloodstream to improve your energy levels. During your session, the team helps you settle into a tube-shaped hyperbaric chamber, then turn up the air pressure levels to 2-3 times higher than normal.

The increased pressure helps oxygen circulate more efficiently throughout your body and also relieves inflammation, joint and muscle pain, and cognitive dysfunction.

Often, people need multiple oxygen therapy sessions to achieve the full benefit of treatment. The providers can recommend how frequently you should schedule therapy appointments based on your overall health and wellness goals.
