Unlock the Power of Enhanced Oxygenation

Welcome to Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT), a non-invasive treatment that significantly increases your body’s oxygen levels. HBOT achieves this by using controlled pressure in a hyperbaric chamber and elevating the oxygen concentration to around 90-95%, in contrast to the ambient air’s 21%. In just one session, it can boost your bloodstream’s oxygen levels by over 1000%.

Pure Oxygen: A Fresh Approach to Healing

Oxygen plays a crucial role in our body’s vitality, powering the energy production process in our cells. Within tiny organelles called mitochondria, oxygen assists in converting nutrients from digestion into usable energy known as ATP. After a session, your body is enriched with free-flowing oxygen in your plasma, allowing it to reach even the most inflamed areas, unlike oxygen bound to red blood cells. This supports the body’s healing and regeneration process.

Oxygen makes up approx. 65% of the human body and acts as an energy source for cells. Many factors such as stress, lifestyle, and some unavoidable medical conditions can create low saturation of oxygen and it can turn into hypoxia. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a proven remedy for meeting the oxygen deficiency of the human body. A higher amount of oxygen dose in a sophisticated environment can help in supporting health issue allowing the body to recover faster.

The Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment Experience

Imagine stepping into a rejuvenating oxygen spa for your body. Inside the hyperbaric oxygen chamber, you’ll be immersed in pure, pressurised oxygen—a substantial boost to your body’s natural healing abilities.

In our daily lives, oxygen is essential for healing and thriving. However, sometimes our bodies require an extra push. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy takes you to a whole new level by increasing the air pressure around you. This supercharges your body with more oxygen, accelerating wound healing, reducing inflammation, combating infections, and more.

Relax, meditate, sleep, read and even work* in the comfort of the chamber, knowing that one of our specially trained team members will always be on hand to ensure that you are comfortable and reassured and that you get the most benefit out of your “dive”.

Think of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy as your secret healing weapon, with oxygen as your ally on the path to improved health. This is your opportunity to experience the future of healing, here and now.

Your blood carries the extra oxygen through your body in the plasma, accelerating your natural healing process, helping to reduce inflammation, boosting the production of white blood cells that fight infection and speeding up recovery.
