mHBOT - Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

mHBOT or mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is a method of raising the levels of oxygen in the body’s blood plasma by increasing air pressure.

Under pressure, additional oxygen is dissolved into the blood plasma and enters the tissues directly.

Increased oxygen in the plasma leads to higher amounts of oxygen being delivered to the body’s tissues, organs and brain.

About the session:

Sessions usually last 1 hour
The client is fully clothed and lies down in the chamber for the length of the session.
Whilst in the chamber you can listen to music, meditate, read a book, or just go to sleep.
During the session the pressure will change in the chamber and you may feel it in your ears, like during take off or landing in a plane.
During treatment you may feel slightly warmer as the chamber is pressuring, comfortable when the chamber is at pressure and slightly cool as it depressurises.
Your heart rate and blood pressure will settle as the pressure increases helping you to relax.
If at any time you feel uncomfortable a staff member will be close by to assist. We can depressurize the pod and you can leave it within a few minutes.
This treatment assists your body to detoxification and some clients may experience some mild fatigue or headaches - relieved by drinking more water. This is normal.
