HBOT (Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy)
What is HBOT?
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is a cutting-edge therapeutic modality that harnesses the power of pure oxygen at atmospheric pressures higher than normal to accelerate the body’s natural healing processes. Upon entering our hyperbaric chamber, oxygen dissolves directly into the blood plasma, cerebrospinal fluid, and all bodily tissues, reaching areas where circulation is typically limited. This high-concentration «oxygen bath» drastically reduces inflammation, stimulates the formation of new blood vessels (angiogenesis), and multiplies stem cell production, resulting in unprecedented physical and cognitive recovery.

What should I do to prepare for a treatment?
You may enter fully clothed, but loose, comfortable clothing is recommended. Avoid wearing tights to prevent overheating.
Items: You must remove your shoes, jewelry, and any sharp objects before entering.
How will the Hypobaric treatment feel?
- Ears: You'll feel a pressure change similar to that in an airplane. This is easily relieved by yawning, swallowing, or gently blowing your nose while pinching it closed.
- Environment: You'll notice a slight increase in temperature and humidity inside the cabin due to body heat.
- Comfort: After pressurization, the sensation is imperceptible. You can relax, read, listen to music, or sleep.
How long is the treatment?
Treatment times are usually 1-2 hours per session, 5-7 times per week. The Industry Standard for medical grade sessions is one to two hours a day for 40 days. Then two weeks off and repeat
Are there any Contra-indications for Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?
- Lungs: Not recommended in cases of severe lung damage or COPD without medical approval.
- Pregnancy: Generally not recommended during pregnancy.
- Specific conditions: Users with pacemakers or a tendency toward seizures require strict medical supervision.
- Medical consultation: It is essential to consult with your doctor to evaluate any other restrictions based on your medical history.
