What Is Hyperbaric Chamber Treatments?
Inside the chamber, the air pressure is increased, which allows more oxygen to dissolve in the blood.
Established medical uses include certain types of wound healing and decompression illness. Evidence for wellness and longevity uses is still developing.
Who This May Be Right For
Hyperbaric therapy may be considered for specific medical conditions or wellness goals after assessment by a doctor.
It is not suitable for everyone, for example some lung and ear conditions. A medical assessment is required before treatment.
Understanding the Procedure
Sessions are delivered at accredited centres under medical supervision.
You relax inside the chamber while the pressure is gradually raised and lowered. Your doctor will recommend the number of sessions and explain potential side effects, such as ear pressure.
