About HBOT
What is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is a specialized treatment that involves breathing pure oxygen while inside a pressurized chamber. The chamber is designed to increase air pressure and oxygen availability, allowing your lungs to take in more oxygen than you would normally breathe.
The increased oxygen molecules are "pressed" into the body and delivered to the red blood cells and the blood plasma for transportation throughout the body. Oxygen is a key component for healing, repairing, and rebuilding the cells in our bodies.
Activating the body's natural healing processes and reviving damaged tissue are the most significant benefits of mild HBOT. Regular sessions may result in more energy and better focus, reduction of pain, and improvement of COVID symptoms.
"Most professional hyperbaric session ever!"

Benefits
Promotes Healing Throughout the Body
More Oxygen
Forces oxygen 400% deeper into bodily tissues, even reaching bone marrow. Saturates blood plasma with oxygen and promotes healing of all body tissues.
Mitochondria Health
Mitochondria lose an electron during HBOT, creating an antioxidant effect, preventing damage and death of mitochondria — the powerhouse of your cells.
Detoxification
Detoxifies the body from microbes, systemic bacterial and viral load, yeast overgrowth (gut & systemic), mercury, and other heavy metals.
Stem Cell Production
Stimulates production of white blood cells, STEM cells (and their transfer to the Central Nervous System), and direct production of STEM cells in the brain.
Anti-Inflammatory
Powerful anti-inflammatory response in every cell, allowing for pain relief and healing of stubborn injuries and inflammation-based disease.
Anti-Aging
Stimulates collagen production, filling in fine lines and wrinkles. Stimulates healing of eczema, psoriasis, and acne.
Brain Health
Increases serotonin production, oxygenates the full brain, helps with anxiety, depression, and promotes healing of TBI and concussions, including old traumas.
Blood Flow
Promotes angiogenesis (new blood vessel formation), increases blood flow and stimulates production of white blood cells. FDA-approved for severe anemia.
The Science
How It Works
Normal Oxygen Delivery
When you breathe, oxygen is brought into your lungs, then most of it binds to your red blood cells to be carried throughout your body. A mere 1.5% goes to blood plasma, which travels to places red blood cells are too large to go. Plasma oxygen levels are critical to healing injured tissue and circulatory problems.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Delivery
Mitochondria lose an electron during HBOT, creating an antioxidant effect, thus preventing damage and death of mitochondria — the powerhouse of your cells. The increased pressure allows oxygen to dissolve into all body fluids and tissues.
Supplemental Oxygen
Breathing regular air in a hyperbaric chamber still presses extra oxygen into the body, but adding oxygen greatly increases the benefits. In mild HBOT, the pressure is lighter and O2 only reaches 30%, eliminating the risks of hospital-grade HBOT. Newer studies show mild HBOT to be equally beneficial.
Frequency vs. One-Off Treatment
One treatment can feel like 1200mg of Ibuprofen. But the physiological benefits come from the 40-Hour Hyperbaric Protocol — shown to produce powerful results with pressures between 1.3–2.4 ATA and session durations of 60–120 minutes. Typically 5 consecutive days with a 2-day rest period, completed in 1–2 months.
