What is HBOT?
During HBOT, you'll breathe in 95% pure oxygen (compared to 21% in normal conditions). This increased level of oxygen greatly improves your body's ability to heal and speeds up recovery from illness or injury. The air pressure is increased to twice the normal atmospheric pressure to help lungs gather more oxygen.
What does HBOT treatment feel like?
Patients generally feel calm and relaxed. During compression and decompression, you may experience slight pressure in your ears, similar to the feeling when an airplane descends. This can be relieved by swallowing or opening your mouth.
How long is a session of HBOT?
Each session typically takes approximately 1 to 2 hours, depending on individual requirements and treatment goals.
Are there any side effects?
The most common side effect is ear or sinus barotrauma, often called 'airplane ears'. This is caused by pressure changes. The chambers are pressurized gradually to give your body time to acclimatize.
Is the chamber safe to use for everyone?
Most people can safely use a hyperbaric chamber. However, it is always recommended to consult with a professional if you have specific heart or lung conditions. The system includes automatic safety controls to ensure pressure stays within limits.
Can I use electronic devices inside?
Yes, the chamber features a wide viewing window and a spacious interior, allowing you to relax, read, or use portable electronic devices comfortably during your session.
