HBOT or Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a natural, wellness therapy where you breathe pure oxygen in a special chamber called the hyperbaric oxygen therapy chamber. Here the pressure of oxygen is more than normal and this enables your body to take in more oxygen. This is carried by your blood to every corner of your body.
When pressurised oxygen is infused into your blood stream during HBOT therapy, this is pushed to every part of your body. This strengthens your body and helps fight bacteria besides stimulating growth factors and stem cells that promote healing. You can expect healing time to be cut in half.
A typical session consists of 15 minutes of compression, one hour of treatment and 15 minutes of decompression.This would depend on your medical condition and will be decided by the physician. On an average, at least 25 to 30 sittings are recommended.Every chamber is equipped with a phone and you can communicate at any time.
