Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) involves breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber to promote healing and recovery by increasing oxygen levels in the blood. It helps treat a wide variety of conditions, from injuries to chronic illnesses.

HBOT is effective for many medical conditions. Each patient is evaluated by Dr. Gary Dennis to determine the suitability of treatment.

During HBOT, you may feel pressure changes in your ears, like being on a plane. The treatment itself is non-invasive, and you'll feel relaxed once the chamber reaches the required pressure.

HBOT is a natural therapy with minimal side effects. Some patients may experience mild ear discomfort or temporary vision changes, but most effects are temporary.

Avoid food and drinks directly before the session. Provide your doctor with a list of all medications you take, as some may conflict with HBOT. Also, avoid smoking and alcohol for maximum benefit.

The number of sessions varies by patient. For most, six weeks is the minimum needed to see results, but more sessions may be recommended depending on the condition.

The cost of HBOT depends on the duration and number of sessions required. Contact Cocoon for more details.
