Hard Shell Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapies are one of the most efficient ways to increase oxygen concentration in the bloodstream. With just one treatment, oxygen concentrations can be raised by 2,000%! At The Epigenetics Healing Center, we utilize hard-shell hyperbaric oxygen chambers as a treatment option for many conditions.

Benefits of Hard Shell Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatments

Hard shell chambers are the ultimate option for hyperbaric oxygen treatments. Because the steel walls of the chambers are firm and sturdy, they can withhold more pressure than the chamber’s soft shell sister. As you can imagine, more pressure translates to better results. At The Epigenetics Healing Center, our hard shell chamber delivers a 100% pure oxygen concentration, where the room you are currently in is most likely at a 21% pure oxygen concentration. 

 

Hard shell chambers are considered to be the gold standard for these types of treatments, and are widely used by hospitals and clinics. Because of the intensity of oxygen delivery, hard shell hyperbaric oxygen chamber treatments can be used to treat a wider array of conditions compared to soft shell therapies. 

 

What To Expect From A Hard Shell Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment

The hard shell hyperbaric oxygen treatments are similar to the soft shell treatments, but are more intense and lead to results faster. During treatment, you will enter the chamber and find a comfortable position. After securing the chamber, the medical professional will bring the chamber up to the correct pressure until you reach your prescribed level. During the treatment, you can relax, meditate, nap or even read a book! Your medical professional will be present through the entire duration of the treatment. After 90 minutes the pressure is slowly lowered, and once the decompression process is complete you will be released from the chamber. 

 

Some patients report feeling a sensation of “fullness” or popping in the ears while the chamber is in the compression or decompression process, though this is temporary and is said to be similar to the ear popping one experiences on an airplane. It is also reported that after treatment, patients may feel renewed energy and fatigue reduction, mind clarity, and enhanced concentration.
