Jerry Rosburg’s Journey with Hyperbaric Chambers

Professional athletes lead incredibly active lives, both on and off the field. When they’re not giving it all to the game, they undergo intense training sessions between practices and manage hectic travel schedules. This leaves them little time to rest and recover, which can produce debilitating results when coupled with physical injuries. As a retired NFL coach with over 40 years of experience in the profession, Jerry Rosburg understands the impact of effective treatment and recovery. It’s why he’s become a vocal advocate for Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT), a natural solution using high levels of oxygen in hyperbaric chambers to provide effective, long-term healing to athletes.

What Is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?

HBOT is a non-invasive treatment that stimulates cellular healing in the body through oxygen. The process begins inside a hyperbaric chamber, where patients receive 100% medical grade oxygen, or up to four times the oxygen concentration of standing outside. Sessions can last 1-2 hours in one of two types of hyperbaric chambers:

Monoplace chambers designed for individual use
Multiplace chambers that accommodate multiple patients

A Shared Commitment to Healing and Recovery Jonathan Rotella, CEO of NexGen Hyperbaric, first met Jerry in 2020 when they discussed treatment options for Jerry’s son, Dallas Stars hockey player Jerad Rosburg. As the father of an athlete and as an NFL coach with numerous players under guidance, Jerry places great importance on the care athletes receive amid their active schedules. Jonathan’s passion and expertise in HBOT resonated with Jerry, enabling him to see the far-ranging benefits of HBOT for athletes and non-athletes alike. Jerry joined the NexGen team and serves as Vice President of Sports Services.

What Are the Benefits of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?

As HBOT treatments carry more oxygen to the bloodstream, blood cells become more pliable. This allows more oxygen and nutrient-carrying cells to reach previously inaccessible blood vessels and begin healing. Advantages of HBOT include but are not limited to:

Decreased muscle soreness and fatigue
Improved sports performance in key areas including endurance, speed, muscle strength and range of motion
Improved cognitive function and decision making
Healthy cell regeneration
Strain, sprain and tear relief
Facilitates bone health and growth
Stem cell stimulation
Reduced oxygen toxicity
Increased blood plasma and hemoglobin levels

With increased blood flow and circulation, physical health, mental health and cognitive function can improve, meaning individuals who suffer from a wide variety of ailments will benefit from HBOT.
