Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)

What Is HBOT?

When you breathe pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber, something remarkable happens. Oxygen dissolves into your blood, plasma, lymph, spinal fluid — even deep into tissues where normal circulation struggles to reach. This super-oxygenation can help your cells heal, reduce inflammation, and promote regeneration.

In simple terms: HBOT helps your body do what it already wants to do — repair itself — but gives it more fuel, more clarity, more support.

Why Consider HBOT? (Who It’s For)

If you’re dealing with:

• Slower recovery after injuries or surgery

• Chronic inflammation

• Brain fog, fatigue, or cognitive decline

• Autoimmune issues

• Aging concerns and wanting to improve resilience

You might be surprised by how HBOT can help. We’ve also seen benefits in patients with concussion, arthritis, post-stroke symptoms, and more — especially when HBOT is combined with other therapies like chiropractic, stem cell care, or detox protocols.

How HBOT Works (In the Chamber)

Inside our chamber, we increase atmospheric pressure above normal levels, while you breathe 100% oxygen. Because of the pressure, the oxygen is pushed deeper into your biology — into places red blood cells alone cannot reach.

What that can do:

• Activate stem cells — up to 8× more than normal

• Boost mitochondrial energy production

• Lower inflammation

• Support new blood vessel growth (angiogenesis)

• Help brain tissue oxygenation for better mood, focus, sleep

It’s like accelerating what your body already does — but with more oxygen power.

Safety, Standards & Our Commitment

We practice with integrity, safety, and evidence in mind.

• We tailor your pressure and session plan based on your health profile.

• Our chamber meets relevant safety standards and is maintained with strict protocols (design, materials, seals, fire safety) in line with industry guidelines.

• You’ll be monitored the entire time; our team is trained to guide you smoothly and safely through the process.

• Claustrophobia, ear pressure sensations, or mild light-headedness are rare and manageable — we walk with you through every step.

Transparency note: HBOT isn’t a cure-all for everything. We pair its power with realistic expectations, combined therapies, and ongoing evaluation.

What to Expect — Your First Session

Here’s how your first HBOT visit unfolds:

1. Warm Welcome & Health Check
   We review your medical history, current condition, meds, and any contraindications.

2. Orientation & Chamber Prep
   We guide you into the chamber, give you cotton clothing (free of synthetic materials), and instructions on clearing ear pressure.

3. Pressurization & Breathing Oxygen
   The chamber is pressurized gradually. You breathe oxygen via mask or the chamber atmosphere.

4. Session Time
   Most HBOT sessions last ~60–90 minutes (or as prescribed). During that time, you can rest, listen to music, or relax.

5. Depressurization & Debrief
   We bring pressure back to normal, monitor you for a few minutes, and discuss what was observed and next steps.

6. Plan & Follow-Up
   Based on your goals and response, we’ll propose a session plan. Some patients do multiple sessions to buildup benefits.

Many people report sensations of clarity, lightness, or deeper rest after their first session.

Conditions & Outcomes We Support

We base our indications partly on recognized protocols in the hyperbaric medicine field. HBOT has established use for particular conditions, and promising applications in others.

Recognized Uses (in hospital / wound care settings):

• Non-healing wounds & diabetic ulcers

• Radiation injury (tissue damage from radiation)

• Skin grafts and flaps with compromised blood supply

• Carbon monoxide poisoning, gas embolism

• Bone infection (osteomyelitis), certain crush injuries

• Sudden hearing loss (idiopathic)

• Others per Undersea & Hyperbaric Medical Society standards

Possible Benefits for Wellness / Performance Use:

• Recovery acceleration (sports, injury)

• Inflammation modulation

• Brain oxygen support (focus, fog, mood)

• Longevity / age-related resilience

• Post-operative healing support

We’re careful: these are possible benefits, not guarantees. Every patient is different, and we monitor your progress.

FAQ Section

• Is HBOT safe?
  Yes, when properly supervised. Side effects are rare— ear pressure, mild lightheadedness, or temporary vision changes in very few cases.

• Does it hurt?
  Not typically. You may feel pressure in your ears (like during airplane descent) which is easily managed.

• How many sessions will I need?
  It depends on your health goal or condition. Some choose 5–20 sessions depending on how deep the need.

• Am I eligible?
  Some medical contraindications (untreated pneumothorax, certain lung disease, some ear surgeries) exist. We screen thoroughly.

• Is this insurance / medical-grade?
  This is a serious therapy. Some uses are covered in hospital settings for wound care, but wellness/“off-label” uses may not be. We’ll help you understand the status and cost.
