Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber Treatment (HBOT)

Bring your health and well-being to an optimum level with a new, unique treatment facility at Udara. Udara has set up two high-quality Hyperbaric Oxygen Chambers, which are available for individual treatment sessions.

How does the Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber work?

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) involves breathing almost pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber to treat various health conditions and improve quality of life. During this treatment your lungs can gather much more oxygen than would be possible breathing oxygen at normal air pressure.

Not only does breathing pressurized oxygen help the red blood cells to carry more oxygen throughout the body, but it also activates the body’s ability to transport oxygen in the plasma. When your blood carries this extra oxygen throughout your body, it helps repair tissues and restore normal body functions. The goal is to saturate the blood with enough oxygen to help fight bacteria and stimulate the release of so called growth factors and stem cells to promote healing and longevity.

Who should use the HBOT?

Besides its primary use to treat diving-related illnesses, the HBOT has been approved to treat various conditions such as wound healing, post-covid symptoms, chronic fatigue syndrome, inadequate blood flow in the arteries, anemia, certain bone or skin infections, and crush injuries.

The benefits of oxygen can benefit anyone, not just those suffering from a medical condition. Increasing your oxygenation levels has shown to be important for our health, wellbeing and vitality. More and more studies show the promising results of HBOT, such as the lengthening of telomeres, which are key markers for anti-ageing, and improvement of cognitive functions.

The benefits of optimum oxygen levels in our body

“The ability of your body to carry oxygen where it’s needed is called oxygen-carrying capacity. Most of us know about this in terms of endurance and strength training—but even more essential, if oxygen-carrying capacity is compromised, you can’t make enough energy and this can lead to fatigue, brain fog, cold extremities, chronic infections, more severe acute infections, and a host of other issues.”, explained by Dr. Scott Sherr in his blog article about biohacking with HBOT.

Optimum oxygen levels can improve wound healing, eyesight, mental clarity, boost your immune system, reduce stress levels and fight chronic fatigue. It also helps with recovery after exercise, eliminating toxins and harmful bacteria from the body. Because of increased oxygen levels in our blood, we feel more alive, our body is healthier and we think more clearly.

What happens during a Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber Treatment?

During the HBOT therapy, you lie comfortably in a chamber. The pressure of the chamber will be steadily increased up to 1.5 times the normal atmospheric pressure, while pure oxygen is flowing into the chamber.

While the pressure is changing inside the chamber, you may experience a temporary feeling of pressure in your ears, similar to traveling in an airplane or driving up and down a mountain road. Yawning, chewing or swallowing movements can help to equalize the pressure and alleviate discomfort. Our staff will provide you will all necessary instructions before using the chamber.

Once the air pressure in the chamber has reached its stable peak, you may just rest, sleep, relax or read a book. The time inside the pressurized chamber lasts about 60 minutes per session.

The decompression time takes about 10-15 minutes, during which you might feel a popping sensation in the ears again as the pressure releases. Usually, no immediate after-effects are felt and you can continue with your daily activities after the session.

How often should I use the HBOT?

Like going to the gym, the HBOT has a cumulative effect. The HBOT can be done up to 5 times per week with one session per day for several weeks in a row. Depending on your health condition, several regular sessions might be needed.

Is the HBOT safe?

The HBOT is a non-invasive treatment with very few potential side effects and contra-indications. Certain conditions and diseases might prevent you from using the HBOT such as cold symptoms, fever, ear or sinus infections, heart or lung conditions and pregnancy. Our staff will evaluate each guest before the treatment and discuss any questions you might have with you.
