How it works

The air we breathe consists of approximately 20.9% oxygen, 78% nitrogen, and small traces of argon, carbon dioxide, neon, helium, and hydrogen. When we inhale, the oxygen particles in the air make their way from our lungs into the red blood cells in our bloodstream.

Under normal circumstances, only 25% of the oxygen is absorbed by our cells’ mitochondria, which are responsible for converting oxygen and nutrients into ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) – the molecule that stores and provides energy for our body to function. This process is known as aerobic respiration and is the primary purpose of our oxygen intake.

In a hyperbaric oxygen chamber, the increased pressure compels oxygen to enter our lungs, bloodstream, and cells at a higher rate, boosting the absorption within the cells. This results in a greater supply of oxygen to the mitochondria, consequently enhancing energy production.

During HBOT, patients are placed in a pressurised chamber where they breathe in pure oxygen. By increasing the air pressure inside the chamber, the body is encouraged to absorb higher amounts of oxygen. This process aids in combating infections and preventing cell damage in injuries.

Why?

Your body’s tissues need an adequate supply of oxygen to function. When tissue is injured, it requires even more oxygen to survive. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy increases the amount of oxygen your blood can carry. With repeated scheduled treatments, the temporary extra high oxygen levels encourage normal tissue oxygen levels, even after the therapy is completed. The effects of the extra oxygen vary according to the type of tissue they reach.

To benefit from hyperbaric oxygen therapy, you’ll likely need more than one session. The number of sessions you may need to notice a difference in your body is dependent on your physiological load, expectations and medical conditions.

It is advised to use multiple session to notice an improvement.

Professional athletes who are very in-tune to their bodies may notice a difference within 3-5 session while someone with chronic illness may take between 20-40 sessions.

The surge in energy

When exposed to pressure conditions, such as 1.5 ATA, the lungs have the capacity to absorb a greater amount of oxygen compared to breathing pure oxygen at regular air pressure. This increased oxygen absorption is carried by the circulatory system throughout the body, aiding in the fight against bacteria and facilitating deeper oxygen supply to the cells.

Under normal circumstances, the oxygen level in our arteries is around 100mm Hg. However, inside a hyperbaric chamber set at 1.5 ATA, the oxygen level in our arteries can reach an impressive 1000 mm Hg under optimal conditions. This signifies a tenfold increase in comparison to normal conditions, leading to a significant surge in energy.

Optimal oxygen supply

For organic tissues to function properly, they require an optimal supply of oxygen. When tissue is injured, it requires an increased amount of oxygen to support its survival. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a treatment method that enhances the amount of oxygen carried by the blood, thereby restoring adequate levels of blood gases and promoting tissue function.

Decreased Levels of Oxygen

The sustenance of our bodies relies on the presence of oxygen. Insufficient oxygen can lead to tissue weakness and damage, premature aging, thinning hair, and even memory impairment. As we age, our cells experience nutrient deprivation, but ensuring a sufficient oxygen supply to our cells can promote overall health, vitality, and energy.

Most illnesses and injuries manifest at the cellular level, within our tissues. In cases of non-healing wounds, strokes, or compromised blood circulation, inadequate oxygen supply to the affected area hinders natural healing processes. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy offers a natural augmentation of oxygen levels, addressing these limitations and facilitating improved healing.

Increased levels of oxygen:

  • Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy proves effective in situations where alternative approaches are ineffective, thereby enhancing the well-being of individuals who are affected.
  • Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy can be beneficial in situations requiring heightened oxygen levels, and it can also be combined with other forms of treatment.

How to prepare for Oxygen therapy in advance

  1. In preparation for your HBOT (Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy) treatment, it is advised to maintain a healthy lifestyle for at least a couple of weeks beforehand. It is recommended to abstain from consuming alcohol and carbonated beverages for at least four weeks prior to your HBOT sessions.
  2. It is highly recommended to refrain from smoking during your hyperbaric oxygen treatment. If you are a smoker, it is advised to put tobacco aside for the duration of your treatment. Smoking can impede the body’s natural ability to transfer oxygen effectively, and quitting smoking during this time will help maximise the benefits of the hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
  3. To optimise the effectiveness of your treatment, it is important not to attend your appointments while you are unwell. If you are experiencing symptoms of a cold, fever, or flu, it is advisable to reschedule your session, as these conditions can potentially delay the desired effects of the treatment.
  4. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) sessions typically range from 60 minutes to two hours in duration. To maximise the potential benefits, it is advisable to undergo HBOT over an extended period. Please note that it may require multiple sessions before noticeable improvements become apparent.
  5. To ensure a smooth and successful hyperbaric oxygen therapy treatment, here are some useful tips that you can follow:

  6. Follow pre-treatment instructions: Adhere to any specific guidelines provided by your healthcare provider, such as avoiding certain medications or substances before the treatment.
  7. Arrive on time: Be punctual for your scheduled treatment session to allow ample time for preparation and settling in before the therapy begins.
  8. Before your hyperbaric oxygen treatment, it is important to shower and refrain from using perfumes and deodorants.
  9. Wear comfortable clothing: Dress in loose (cotton is the most friendly material for oxygen treatment), comfortable clothing that is suitable for the session. Avoid wearing any metal objects or items that can generate sparks, mobile phones as they are not allowed inside the chamber.
  10. Communicate any concerns: Inform the dedicated staff about any specific concerns or questions you may have regarding the treatment. They are there to address your needs and ensure your comfort throughout the process.
  11. Empty your bladder: Visit the restroom before the treatment begins to minimise any potential interruptions or discomfort during the session.
  12. Relax and stay calm: During the treatment, try to stay relaxed and calm. You will have access to the mini iPads with an internet access to help pass the time and create a more comfortable environment for yourself.
  13. Equalise your ears: To alleviate any discomfort caused by the change in air pressure, practice techniques to equalise the pressure in your ears, such as swallowing, yawning, or gently blowing your nose. Sipping the water that will be provided to the chamber would also help to equalise the ears.
  14. Trust the operating team: Rest assured that our well trained staff overseeing your treatment are experienced and trained to ensure your safety and well-being. Trust their guidance and follow their instructions throughout the process.

By following these tips, you can help ensure that your hyperbaric oxygen therapy treatment proceeds smoothly and that you have a comfortable experience.


During the HBOT Session:

  1. Session length: HBOT sessions typically last for a specified duration. Remain calm and relaxed during the session, as this promotes effective oxygen absorption.
  2. Equalisation: If you experience discomfort in your ears or sinuses during pressurisation, inform the staff immediately. They will guide you on various techniques to equalise the pressure, such as swallowing, yawning, or performing the Valsalva maneuver or encourage to sip some water.
  3. Communication: A two-way communication system will be provided inside the chamber. If you need assistance or have any concerns, notify the staff immediately. They will be able to hear and respond to your messages.
  4. Breathing: Breathe normally during the session. You may feel slight pressure changes in your ears, similar to those experienced during takeoff or landing on an airplane. This is normal and should not cause any discomfort.
  5. Relaxation: Utilise relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing or guided imagery, to help you remain calm and comfortable during the session.
  6. Temperature: The chamber may be slightly cooler than room temperature. If needed, blankets or a temperature adjustment can be provided to ensure your comfort.
  7. Safety: The chamber is equipped with safety features and emergency procedures. Trust in the expertise of the staff, who will monitor your condition throughout the session.

Post-Treatment:

After completing a hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBOT) session, it’s important to follow certain post-treatment tips to ensure a smooth recovery and maximise the potential benefits. Here are some recommendations:

  1. Gradual depressurisation: After the treatment session is complete, the chamber will gradually return to normal atmospheric pressure. Allow the staff to guide you through this process to ensure your safety and comfort.
  2. Take it easy: Allow yourself some time to rest and recover after the HBOT session. It’s common to feel relaxed or slightly fatigued, so listen to your body and give yourself the necessary downtime.
  3. Hydrate: Drink plenty of fluids, preferably water, to stay hydrated. Proper hydration supports the body’s natural healing processes and helps eliminate any metabolic waste products.
  4. Eat a nutritious meal: Consume a well-balanced meal that includes fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. A nutritious diet provides essential nutrients for tissue repair and overall well-being.
  5. Avoid strenuous activities: Refrain from engaging in intense physical activities or exercises immediately after an HBOT session. Give your body time to recover and adjust to the treatment.
  6. Follow any specific instructions: If your healthcare provider has given you specific post-treatment instructions, such as medications to take or activities to avoid, be sure to follow them diligently.
  7. Monitor for any side effects: Although rare, some individuals may experience mild side effects such as temporary lightheadedness or ear discomfort. If you notice any unusual symptoms or concerns, promptly communicate with your healthcare provider.
  8. Maintain good hygiene: Practice good hygiene by keeping the treated area clean and dry. If you had a wound or surgical site treated, follow the instructions provided by your healthcare provider for optimal healing.
  9. Attend follow-up appointments: If your treatment plan includes multiple HBOT sessions, make sure to attend all scheduled follow-up appointments. These visits allow your healthcare provider to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment.
  10. Communicate with your healthcare provider: If you have any questions, concerns, or unexpected symptoms following the HBOT session, do not hesitate to reach out to your healthcare provider. They are there to address your queries and provide appropriate guidance.

Remember, the post-treatment period is essential for the healing and recovery process. By following these tips and maintaining open communication with your healthcare provider, you can optimise the benefits of your HBOT treatment and support your overall well-being.
