Summary

This study reviews records from 1,000 healthy adults who completed 60 sessions of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). Researchers will compare exercise test results and thinking skills before and after treatment to see if there are any changes. The goal is to understand how HBOT might affect fitness and brain function in healthy people.
