General contraindications:

• Untreated pneumothorax – is the only absolute contraindication.
  
  
• Recent ear surgery, ear injuries, or sinus infections – due to increased risk of barotrauma.
  
  
• High fever – may increase the risk of oxygen toxicity.
  
  
• Severe claustrophobia – patients may have difficulty tolerating the hyperbaric chamber.
  
  
• Lung diseases with air retention (lung bubbles) – increased risk of lung rupture.
  
  

Conditional contraindications:

• COPD with CO₂ retention
  
  
• Uncontrolled asthma
  
  
• History of thoracic surgery
  
  
• Epilepsy/seizures
  
  
• Congenital spherocytosis
  
  
• Acute sinusitis/respiratory infections
  
  
• Optic neuritis or recent eye surgery
  
  
• Severe uncontrolled hypertension
  
  

Contraindications related to treatments/medications:

• Chemotherapy drugs such as bleomycin, doxorubicin, cisplatin
  
  
• Disulfiram (Antabuse)
  
  
• Topical creams with Sulfamylon
  
  
• Implanted electronic devices (pumps, ICDs)
  
  
• Recent surgeries
  
  

Precautions for certain populations:

• Pregnancy – allowed only in emergencies (e.g. carbon monoxide poisoning)
  
  
• Children – permitted with close supervision
  
  
• Elderly – requires pulmonary and cardiovascular evaluation

Yes, HBOT has been extensively studied and is clinically proven to treat a range of conditions by enhancing oxygen levels in the tissues.

HBOT increases atmospheric pressure to allow your lungs to gather more oxygen, enhancing tissue repair and immune function.

HBOT is known for accelerating healing, reducing inflammation, enhancing immune function, and improving circulation and mental clarity.

Each session in our hard-shell chamber lasts between 60 to 90 minutes, depending on your specific treatment plan.

HBOT is very safe; however, some individuals may experience mild ear discomfort due to changes in pressure, similar to what is felt during flight.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is safe for most people. To ensure the utmost safety and to minimize any risks, every new client undergoes a brief consultation with our on-site doctor before the first session. This step helps us tailor the treatment to your specific needs, ensuring a safe and beneficial experience.

While no treatment can reverse aging completely, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy has shown promising results in clinical studies regarding age management. Research has demonstrated that HBOT can increase telomere length and reduce senescent cells, effectively improving cell health and function in aging populations.
