A person lies in a sealed
chamber while the pressure inside is increased to a therapeutically desired
level.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy treatment has three phases:
Compression:
Once the patient is situated comfortably inside, the chamber
door is sealed and pressurization begins. At any time compression can be
slowed or stopped. Compression typically takes about 15 minutes, but can
be tailored to each individual patient.
Treatment:
Once at depth, the patient is put on pure oxygen. The
chamber will be continuously ventilated to ensure the climate in the chamber is
comfortable. Treatment typically takes 90 minutes, but may vary depending
on the prescription.
Decompression:
Once the time at the treatment depth is completed,
depressurization begins. Air / Oxygen is slowly exhausted out of the
chamber; decreasing the pressure and bringing the patient back to the normal
atmospheric pressure.
Whilst in the chamber, you can listen to your favourite
music, sleep, meditate, read a book, or simply relax and breath in the amazing benefits.
