What is HBOT?

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy involves breathing high concentrations of oxygen at increased pressures up to 2 atmospheres which leads to augmented oxygen levels in the bodies blood and tissue.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) introduces pure oxygen to the body to encourage the natural healing process. Doctors use HBOT to accelerate the healing of certain infections, open wounds, and specific types of poisoning.

This treatment takes place in a pressurized chamber filled with pure oxygen. The air pressure in the chamber is raised to encourage the body to absorb the increased amount of oxygen. This process helps fight off infections and repair cell damage in injuries or operations.

Cells need oxygen to heal. The air inside a hyperbaric chamber is a much purer high concentrate of Oxygen. The air we typically breathe contains about 21% oxygen.

The air pressure inside the chamber is slowly increased. This process allows your body to absorb more oxygen into the plasma and encourages the growth of healthy new tissue where it’s needed.

HBOT can treat a range of conditions where the introduction of increased level of Oxygen promote healing at an accelerated rate.

What is the science?

HBOT is the use of high-pressure oxygen to help treat a variety of health conditions and diseases. Each cell in the body needs oxygen to preserve, repair, and enhance cellular function. Breathing 100% oxygen at pressures greater than sea level helps flood the body with enriched oxygen, creating a cascade of positive benefits.

Most oxygen carried in the blood is bound to haemoglobin, which is 97% saturated at normal atmospheric pressure. At increased pressure, oxygen can be carried in the plasma of the blood, enabling oxygen to reach areas of the body not ordinarily reached to promote healing. This can particularly be the case for patients who have medical conditions that limit the oxygen carrying capacity of the blood.

Breathing 100% oxygen under pressure allows 1,200% more oxygen to enter your circulatory system directly into your plasma. Thus, by providing super high levels of oxygen, HBOT helps optimize cellular energy production.

 

When you are in the chamber

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is simple – just lie back, relax, and breathe normally.

At the beginning of each session, a licensed supervisor may request to check your vitals and review a safety checklist if you have a pre-existing medical condition. You will be required to remove all jewellery, watches, and electronic devices, and be free of lotions and perfumes. They will also provide you a 100% cotton gown (if you do not bring your own) and blanket for a safe and comfortable experience, and a water bottle to take with you into the chamber (optional). The water bottle can be helpful to clear your ears as the chamber pressurizes.

Prior to going in the chamber if it is your first time, your supervisor will demonstrate how to equalise pressure in your ears during the descent and ascent. They will also show you what to do if you need assistance while in the chamber. You can meditate, read a book or you can simply choose to take a nap. During the entire treatment, a supervisor will be available to guide you, particularly while you descend to your prescribed depth, where you may experience an ear-popping sensation (like when flying on any airplane), as well as attend to any needs or questions you have during your session.
