Increased Oxygen for Healing

The mild hyperbaric chamber is filled with compressed ambient air from 2 to 4.5 pounds per square inch (1.3 ATA max). This is the equivalent of 11 feet below sea level.
The increased pressure allows the blood plasma and other liquids of the body to absorb additional oxygen thus greatly increasing oxygen uptake by the cells, tissues, glands, organs, brain, and fluids of the body. The resulting uptake of oxygen allows for increased oxygen to reach those areas where there is swelling or inflammation. At the same time, the increased oxygen may decrease swelling and inflammation. Oxygen is then utilized by the body for vital cell functions, healthier cells equals healthier tissues, and organs. The human body is capable of healing itself when it has what it needs. There is NOTHING the human body needs more than OXYGEN.

What is Mild Hyperbaric

Mild Hyperbaric is a therapy in which a person lays in an inflatable chamber in an increased atmospheric environment. The increase in pressure increases oxygenation throughout the body. It has many healing and therapeutic benefits. Hyperbaric Oxygen provides the optimal environment for the body to carry out vital cell processes which in turn affect healthy tissue formation making it possible for healthier organs and ultimately a healthier body overall.
