Hyperbaric chamber therapy (HBOT therapy) is a medical treatment in which sit or lie in a hyperbaric chamber, an enclosed space filled with pure oxygen. Air pressure is kept two or three times greater than normal to help the body take in more oxygen, which can help heal wounds, treat carbon monoxide poisoning, and more.
Is hyperbaric oxygen healthy?
Yes, hyperbaric oxygen is healthy. It’s pure oxygen, which helps your immune system fight bacteria and generate stem cells. Stem cells are special cells in your body that help create other types of important cells, including blood cells, brain cells and muscle cells.
Why is hyperbaric oxygen therapy used?
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy helps your body heal. To work properly, the tissues in your body must have enough oxygen. If your tissues are injured, they need even more oxygen. The increased pressure in hyperbaric oxygen therapy helps your blood carry oxygen through your body, especially injured tissues. It also helps your white blood cells protect your body from infection.
How often should you do hyperbaric oxygen therapy?
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy sessions usually last between one and two hours. Your healthcare provider may schedule sessions once a week or five days a week for up to 30 or more total sessions.
Is hyperbaric oxygen therapy safe for everyone?
No, some people shouldn’t receive hyperbaric oxygen therapy. It may be dangerous to receive it if you have:
*A collapsed lung (pneumothorax).
*A lung disease that may increase your risk of getting a collapsed lung, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cystic fibrosis and emphysema.
*A fever or cold.
*Recently injured your ear.
*Recently had ear surgery.
What do you do in a hyperbaric oxygen chamber?
Depending on the type of chamber, you either sit in a comfortable chair or lie down. You may wrap yourself up in a blanket if you like and simply rest or reading books.
What does hyperbaric chamber therapy feel like?
Most people find it quite pleasant and relaxing. A common experience as the pressure in the chamber builds is ear "popping"—a sensation similar to that as a plane gains altitude in the air. Occasionally, people report feeling woozy during treatment and, afterward, as if they've just done a cardio workout.
