When you begin a session of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, you will enter a hyperbaric chamber. The chamber will be pressurized to the prescribed level, and you will breathe in 100% pure oxygen through a mask or hood. The increased pressure allows your lungs to absorb a higher amount of oxygen, which is then carried by the blood to all parts of your body.
During the session, you may experience a feeling of fullness in your ears, similar to what you might feel during a flight or deep-sea dive. Our experienced staff will guide you through techniques to equalize the pressure in your ears and make you feel comfortable throughout the session, which typically lasts about 60 to 90 minutes.
