The Centers for Disease Control estimates that one million people in the US grapple with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), while the global prevalence ranges between 17-24 million individuals. CFS presents as a profound and complex ailment characterized by relentless fatigue persisting for at least six months, defying explanation by underlying medical conditions. This fatigue profoundly disrupts daily activities, defying rest, and often accompanied by headaches, sleep disturbances, cognitive impairments, and muscle pain. Physical exertion exacerbates symptoms, leading to post-exertional malaise. Symptom severity varies widely among patients, and currently, no cure exists, with treatment centered on symptom management. However, emerging evidence suggests that Hyperbaric Therapy offers relief.
