It is a transparent enclosure used to administer HBOT. The chamber allows the patient to breathe a highly concentrated amount of oxygen while experiencing an increased atmospheric pressure. This concentrated delivery of oxygen optimizes healing in damaged tissues. HBOT, or Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, delivers oxygen to the body, particularly damaged tissues, at a pressure greater than atmospheric pressure. Traditionally, it is a primary therapy for gas embolism and decompression sickness (The Bends). In other cases, it is a supportive treatment alongside standard protocols.
During the treatment, you will lie inside the chamber as the pressure and oxygen levels increase. This oxygen-rich environment, combined with the higher air pressure, accelerates and enhances the delivery of oxygen molecules to damaged or impaired tissues, promoting healing.
As the pressure changes, you may experience a slight pressure in your ears, similar to diving or taking off in an airplane. Swallowing or opening your mouth can relieve this sensation. The internal chamber temperature might slightly increase, but it will return to normal once the treatment pressure is achieved. Once the chamber reaches treatment pressure, you should feel comfortable and relaxed. During decompression, you may again feel a slight pressure in your ears.
The Hyperbaric Chamber provides a tranquil and relaxing environment. You can use this time to decompress and relax without distractions. However, if you prefer, you can bring your phone or tablet to watch shows or listen to music. Your comfort is our top priority.
A few patients may experience temporary changes in vision, which typically resolve within eight weeks after completing treatment. We advise against getting a new prescription for eyewear during HBOT.
While we recommend bringing only a water bottle, you are allowed to bring your phone or tablet into the chamber if it helps you feel more at ease.
Our HBOT sessions last 60 minutes (1 hour). The duration of treatments varies depending on the specific diagnosis. For chronic conditions like autoimmune disorders, chronic fatigue, tinnitus, and tissue healing, treatments may continue for 20-40 sessions. Minor or acute issues may require fewer sessions. Some clients also use Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for general wellness, scheduling sessions once or twice a month. Consult with our physicians for personalized guidance based on your needs.
