Health Optimization Medicine: HBOT, Nervous System Regulation, and Mitochondrial Healing | The Metabolic Link Ep. 82 | Dr. Scott Sherr|

A patient arrives at shock trauma with flesh-eating bacteria, limbs appearing unsalvageable. Hours later, after treatment in a massive submarine-like chamber, those same limbs show signs of recovery. This pivotal moment launched Dr. Scott Sherr's journey into the world of hyperbaric oxygen therapy and its untapped potential for metabolic healing. Victoria Field welcomes Dr. Scott Sherr, a board certified internal medicine physician who transformed his practice after witnessing HBOT's dramatic effects during his medical training at University of Maryland's trauma center. Now Director of Integrative Hyperbaric Medicine at Hyperbaric Medical Solutions, Dr. Sherr has pioneered protocols that marry hyperbaric therapy with nutritional optimization and metabolic health strategies. Questions Answered in This Episode: What sparked his interest in branching out into hyperbaric oxygen therapy? Why does he recommend waiting three months before intensive protocols? What is the "sympathetic spiral of doom"? What excites him most about the future of hyperbaric medicine? What's his vision for creating integrated healing ecosystems? This conversation reframes hyperbaric medicine not as a standalone treatment, but as a powerful tool within a comprehensive metabolic optimization framework - one that could fundamentally change how we approach healing and human performance.
