Relax, breathe deeply,
and let healing begin.
Utilize the power of pressurized oxygen to repair & restore.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is a completely natural and non-invasive treatment where patients inhale pure, medical-grade oxygen in a pressurized environment. This increased pressure allows oxygen levels in the body to rise by as much as 1,200%, unlocking remarkable health benefits.
Key benefits include:
Improved circulation
Accelerated tissue repair and regeneration
Reduction of inflammation and harmful inflammatory proteins
Activation of stem cells for faster healing
Support in combating infections
Boosted mitochondrial function
Elimination of anaerobic bacteria through oxygenation
Enhanced natural healing processes
-
Non-Invasive
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is a medical treatment that boosts the body’s natural healing processes by having the patient inhale 100% oxygen within a full-body chamber, where the atmospheric pressure is carefully increased and regulated.
-
Powered By Oxygen
Normally, oxygen is carried through the body exclusively by red blood cells. However, with HBOT, oxygen is dissolved into all bodily fluids, including plasma, central nervous system fluids, lymph, and even bone.
-
Heal Faster
This allows additional oxygen to reach all damaged tissues, enabling the body to support its natural healing process. The elevated oxygen levels significantly boost the ability of white blood cells to eliminate bacteria, reduce swelling, and promote the rapid growth of new blood vessels.
What To Expect
At Hyperbarico2, we create personalized hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) plans designed to fit your unique health needs and goals.
Consultation
One of our expert medical staff will guide you through the HBOT process, evaluate your health objectives, and confirm if HBOT is the right fit for you.
Customized Plan
Our team will develop a comprehensive treatment plan tailored to your needs. This will outline the number of sessions, duration of each treatment, and the appropriate pressure levels.
Treatment Plan
Once safety protocols are completed, you’ll be comfortably settled into the chamber, where you can relax, watch TV, listen to music, or even take a nap while reaping the benefits of oxygen therapy.
Progress Review
After your sessions, we’ll conduct follow-ups to assess your progress and track the results of your treatments for optimal effectiveness.
Conditions We Treat
Health Canada currently recognizes 14 conditions that are generally covered by insurance for hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). In addition to these, HBOT has shown potential benefits for other conditions that. These off-label conditions are typically not covered by insurance and are not available in hospital-based hyperbaric centers. As an independent clinic, Hyperbarico2 can provide treatments to patients our physicians believe could benefit from HBOT. For cases not covered by insurance, we offer various payment options and financial assistance programs.

The goal of
HBOT
is to increase oxygen levels in the blood and all other tissues of the patient’s body so it can trigger the generation of molecules and other compounds that promote healing and assist in treating various diseases
The human body requires a certain amount of oxygen to function. Typically, oxygen in the air, which is about 21%, is sufficient for survival. However, more oxygen is helpful to the tissues when the body is injured or falls ill.
Breathing in oxygen at room air is not enough for the body to trigger a fast healing process and assist in treating diseases. Therefore, HBOT increases the percentage of oxygen through a hyperbaric chamber to 99% to ensure that more blood cells and tissues are exposed to oxygen and its beneficial effects.
The Benefits Of HBOT
1.
Enhances the bodies natural healing processes
2.
Dissolves into all of the body's fluids, plasma, central nervous system, lympth, and bone.
3.
Oxygen is carried to areas where circulation is blocked or diminished
4.
Greatly enhances the ability of white blood cells to kill bacteria
5.
Reduces swelling and inflammation throughout the entire body.
6.
Increases the growth rate of new blood vessels and nerve endings

FAQ
-
No, HBOT is not a treatment that can work alone to treat diseases. Its primary role is to assist a broader treatment plan as an adjuvant procedure that accelerates the healing process. Do not use HBOT as a replacement for medical treatment.
-
No, HBOT is not for everyone. For example, people who recently had ear surgery, a cold or fever, or lung problems should not use HBOT.
-
You will receive instructions from your healthcare provider before an HBOT procedure. A gown will be provided for you to wear during the treatment. Items that generate heat, such as battery-powered devices, are not allowed. Petroleum-based hair and skin care products may also need to be removed because they pose a fire risk.
-
During an HBOT procedure, the air pressure you breathe is about 3 times higher than usual. As a result, your ears will experience a temporary feeling of fullness due to this. You might experience something like this while flying or at a high altitude. After an HBOT procedure, your healthcare provider will check if you get any side effects by looking into your ears and eyes and measuring your blood pressure. Once the checking is complete, you can leave immediately.
-
The healing rate varies between 85% and 95% in patients who follow their physician’s advised course of treatment.
-
HBOT lasts about two hours in most conditions. Your healthcare provider will keep an eye on you the whole time to ensure that there will be no problem as the procedure proceeds.
-
HBOT requires multiple sessions to be effective, depending on your condition. For example, three visits may be necessary for some situations, such as carbon monoxide poisoning. Others, such as wounds that do not heal, may need more than that.
-
Depending on a few factors, such as the number of sessions and the location of services, the cost of an HBOT treatment often ranges from $250 to $600.
