HYPERBARIC OXYGEN THERAPY

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy also known as HBOT is a pressurized chamber that involves breathing pure oxygen at a pressured level. This supports your body with healing and recovery through increased oxygen absorption.

HBOT Is Known To:

  • Increase blood flow

  • Decrease inflammation and swelling

  • Weakening infection-causing bacteria

  • Increasing the body's ability to fight free radicals 

  • Stimulating the growth of new blood vessels

  • Optimize sleep 

  • Boost energy and healing

  • No. At the beginning of the session, as your sinuses adjust to the increase in pressure, you may experience a “popping” sensation similar to what you likely have experienced on an airplane. Desert Moon staff will coach you through a couple different ear popping techniques, and if it remains uncomfortable, Desert Moon staff will lower the pressure until it is comfortable.

  • Yes. A Desert Moon Chamber Tech will be monitoring your dive the entire session. At the beginning of the session they will monitor how you are doing until the hyperbaric chamber has reached its maximum pressure. You will have a window between you with which you’ll be able to communicate and you will receive regular updates.

  • Something comfortable that is loose-fitting and cozy. We do ask, though, that you refrain from wearing scented perfumes and lotions or heavy jewelry.

  • Rest and relax! You can nap, listen to music, or meditate.. Bonus if you want to add on targeted light therapy or BrainTap during your session.

  • It depends. Oxygen therapy works cumulatively, the more often you dive in the chamber the better. We recommend a minimum of 5 sessions for general health and maintenance. For more serious conditions, we recommend coming 3-5 times per week. For more serious injuries and conditions, we would recommend coming a minimum of 5 days in a row to see maximum benefits.
