Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
A non-invasive medical treatment with an array of benefits.
What is HBOT?
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is a non-invasive medical treatment that increases the volume of dissolved oxygen in the blood plasma. Inside the Hyperbaric Chamber, the patient breathes high concentrations of oxygen at a pressure higher than normal atmospheric pressure. This results in multiple benefits.

Benefits Resources
We deliver HBOT through our specialized hyperbaric chamber because It demonstrates that normal or excessive use does not approach toxicity values. Our chamber is pressurized with ambient air in circulation and oxygen is administered through a mask, so there is no risk of interference with different types of textile or therapeutic materials that have metals in their composition.
Is HBOT Safe?
Yes.
Regarding therapeutic safety, the treatment is performed at 1.5 ATA and our hyperbaric chamber is safer in terms of neuronal neuron neuroexcitability. Breathing high concentrations of oxygen at 1.5 ATA does not increase excitability at the nerve tissue, while at higher pressures it does occur.
