Your body's tissues need an adequate supply of oxygen to function. When tissue is injured, it requires even more oxygen to survive. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT), or as it’s known an O2 Chamber, is a medical therapy in which a person lays in an inflatable chamber in an increased atmospheric pressure environment. In a Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy chamber, the air pressure is raised up to three times higher than normal air pressure. Under these conditions, your lungs can gather up to three times more oxygen than would be possible breathing pure oxygen at normal air pressure. Your blood carries this oxygen throughout your body, restoring normal levels of blood gases and tissue function, while also stimulating the release of substances called growth factors and stem cells, which promote healing and fight infection.

HBOT alone can often effectively treat certain conditions, while other conditions may require additional therapies. Below is a list of potential conditions that could benefit from O2 Therapy.

• Alzheimer’s and Dementia

• Asthma and Allergies

• Autism and Brain injury

• Bone Regeneration and Sports Injuries

• Fibromyalgia and Rheumatoid Arthritis

Frequently Asked Questions:

Is it safe?

• YES!!! The Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber uses filtered ambient air, so there is no risk of oxygen toxicity to the body even with regular use.

• The chamber can be depressurized and opened from the inside.

• Once inside the chamber, both visual and verbal communication is possible with the outside, and there is a buzzer for help.

• Most people report a comfortable, relaxing experience and emerge from the chamber feeling refreshed.

How does it work?

• The HBOC is filled with compressed ambient air equivalent of 11 feet below sea level where increased pressure allows the blood plasma and other liquids of the body to absorb additional oxygen. This greatly increases oxygen  intake by the cells, tissues, glands, organs, brain, and fluids of the body.

• This increased oxygen intake results in increased circulation and decreased swelling to inflamed areas. 

Why does it work? Henry's Law of Physics:

• An increase in atmospheric pressure allows for more gas to be dissolved into any given liquid. Oxygen, the 8th element on the Periodic Table, exists as a gas at room temperature.

• The human body is composed almost completely of water. Gas.... Under pressure... dissolves in water

Are there any reasons a person should NOT go into the chamber?

• Yes. You should NOT go into the chamber if you are inebriated, if you have ear canal problems, an ear infection, or if you are experiencing cold/flu like symptoms.
