Settle in, relax, and breathe oxygen-rich air as gentle pressure boosts healing from the inside out.

Your Recovery, in the Comfort of Home

At Cocoon, every Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) journey is designed to fit around your life - not the other way around. We don’t ask you to travel to a clinic or work around someone else’s timetable. Instead, after your consultation, we deliver and set up your soft-shell hyperbaric chamber in your own home, so you can heal where you feel most comfortable.

Step 1: Your Personal Consultation

Your journey begins with a one-on-one consultation with our qualified HBOT expert, Dr Gary Dennis. This is your chance to share your health history, symptoms, and goals. We’ll talk through:

  • The condition(s) you’d like to address

  • How HBOT works for your situation

  • How often and how long you may benefit from using the chamber

We’ll answer every question you have - so you feel confident, informed, and ready to start.

Step 2: Delivery & Set-Up in Your Home

Once your plan is confirmed, we bring the chamber directly to you. Our team will:

  • Set it up in your chosen space (bedroom, lounge, home office - wherever you’re comfortable)

  • Show you exactly how to get in and out of the chamber

  • Explain how to start and end your sessions safely

  • Share tips to make each session more relaxing and effective

Step 3: Your First Session

When you step inside the Cocoon Healing Pod, you’ll zip yourself in and get comfortable. As the chamber gently pressurises, you’ll breathe in oxygen-rich air. You might feel a slight pressure in your ears - similar to flying - which usually passes quickly.
Most people:

  • Read or watch something on a tablet

  • Listen to music or a podcast

  • Simply close their eyes and rest

Each session typically lasts 60–90 minutes - and you can use your chamber as often as your programme recommends.

Step 4: Ongoing Support & Check-Ins

We stay in touch throughout your HBOT journey, checking in regularly to:

  • Monitor your progress

  • Answer questions

  • Adjust your plan if needed

With Cocoon, you’re never left to figure things out on your own - support is just a call or message away.

“ HBOT re-ignited my recovery and I personally attribute this as being one of the most important finds in my road to full recovery following my concussion.  I know how hard it is when you’re going through concussion and I couldn't recommend this highly enough to help get you through those tough times."
