Athletes, celebrities, health-conscious consumers and curious minds alike are adding a new method of rejuvenation to their health routines. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is an emerging treatment where oxygen is delivered through increased atmospheric pressure in an enclosed pod. HBOT is used to optimise health and wellbeing, boost energy levels and slow the negative effects of aging on health.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is a pressurized chamber using 100% oxygen to maximize effects on your health. Claimed health benefits include: enhancing cognitive performance, improving circulation, speeding up sports and injury recovery, promoting better sleep, supporting skin health and anti-ageing, aiding the nervous system and strengthening immunity.
Although Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) was originally used to treat decompression sickness in scuba divers and lung disease, names like Justin Bieber, Tiger Woods, Beyoncé, Cristiano Ronaldo are among many who have claimed to use HBOT to treat health symptoms and improve their daily life functions. It is believed that Justin Bieber owns two HBOT machines himself to aid anxiety and decrease stress levels. Michael Jackson used HBOT to treat his burns following the incident from his Pepsi commercial in the 80s.
The prices for 30, 60 and 90-minute sessions can be quite expensive, but as popularity continues to increase, the prices are expected to decrease. Facilities providing access to HBOT services often offer bundle price options to get the most out of time and money.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is a new technology with emerging information and outcomes. It is advised to conduct your own research before deciding whether HBOT is suitable for you.
