Welcome to the world of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)! If you’re curious about how HBOT works, what it feels like, and the wellness benefits it offers, you’re in the right place.

What is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?
Simply put, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is a relaxing, non-invasive treatment that helps the body absorb more oxygen than usual. During an HBOT session, you’ll settle into a cozy, pressurized chamber where you breathe oxygen-rich air at higher-than-normal pressure. This process gives your body a beneficial oxygen boost, enhancing circulation and supporting natural healing.
How Does HBOT Help the Body Heal?
In an HBOT session, the increased oxygen levels dissolve into your bloodstream more effectively, reaching areas that might otherwise receive less oxygen. This oxygen boost can:
Improve blood flow and circulation
Reduce inflammation and pain
Support the body’s natural healing processes
Promote overall wellness and immune health
For those dealing with minor injuries, stress, or even chronic conditions, this extra oxygen is like a breath of fresh air, supporting recovery and enhancing well-being.
Why Choose a Soft Chamber for HBOT?
Soft chambers, like the ones we use, are ideal for wellness and recovery. Operating at gentle pressures (around 1.3 to 1.5 ATA), soft chambers offer a comfortable and safe experience. Instead of delivering 100% oxygen, soft chambers provide concentrated ambient air or enriched oxygen via a mask. This setup creates a wellness-focused environment that’s relaxing and accessible—perfect for anyone looking to feel refreshed and recharged.
Who Can Benefit from Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?
One of the best things about HBOT is its versatility! Many people benefit from this natural approach to health and healing, including:
Athletes seeking faster recovery and improved performance
Busy professionals looking to manage stress and improve focus
Wellness enthusiasts interested in boosting overall vitality
Individuals with minor injuries or chronic conditions who want to support their body’s healing naturally
What Can You Expect During a Session?
A session in a soft HBOT chamber is all about comfort. You’ll spend 60 to 90 minutes relaxing—many of our clients enjoy reading, listening to music, or simply resting. While the chamber gradually increases to a gentle pressure, you may feel a bit of ear-popping, much like when you’re on a plane. This usually fades quickly, leaving you free to enjoy the soothing experience.
