The hyperbaric oxygen chamber is a modern non-invasive treatment that consists of breathing 100% pure oxygen. This procedure has multiple benefits. For example, this includes: regenerating tissue, improving and speeding up healing after surgeries, forming new blood vessels, improving lung oxygenation capacity, and much more.
The air pressure inside the hyperbaric oxygen chamber is two to three times higher than normal atmospheric pressure. Thanks to this, the blood carries a greater amount of oxygen to the body, allowing it to combat various pathologies.
This procedure is simple, uncomplicated, and offers excellent results.
What is hyperbaric oxygen chamber treatment?
It is also called hyperbaric oxygenation. It is a non-invasive and painless treatment. The patient is admitted to the chamber and simply receives the treatment while lying down and breathing normally.
Each treatment is different because it depends on the pathology that the patient has. What varies in the procedure is the pressure used, the breathing mix, and the treatment time.
In addition, it can be used as the only procedure to cure any pathology or, as part of a comprehensive, complementary treatment along with other therapies.

What are the results?
For good results, you will most likely need more than one session, and in some cases, several. The number of sessions will depend on what the specialist determines and also on the patient’s goals.
