What to Expect in a Session
Each session lasts 80 minutes total: 10 minutes to gently pressurize, 20 minutes of therapeutic immersion, and 10 minutes to depressurize, and repeat for a total of 2 cycles. Relax in the chamber’s bright, open interior with large viewports for natural light—no claustrophobia here! Ambient air keeps things simple and safe. Bring a book, meditate, or nap—many clients call it their “productive downtime.”

🩺 Standard 80-Minute Session Protocol (1.3 ATA)
Stage | Duration | Chamber Pressure | Key Physiological Actions |
---|---|---|---|
1. Pressurization (Acclimation) | 10 min | Gradual ramp from 1.0 → 1.3 ATA | Equalize ears frequently; sympathetic activation; increased plasma O₂ concentration begins |
2. Steady State (Therapeutic Hold) | 20 min | Maintain at 1.3 ATA | Hyperoxygenation of plasma; mitochondrial respiration upregulation; stem-cell signaling (CD34⁺ mobilization); reduced inflammation (NF-κB modulation) |
3. Decompression (Return to Ambient) | 10 min | Gradual ramp from 1.3 → 1.0 ATA | Most therapeutic effects peak here: enhanced oxygen off-loading, vascular dilation, nitric oxide release, and antioxidant enzyme induction (SOD, catalase) |
4. Repeat | |||
5. Recovery / Integration | Optional 5–10 min outside | – | Encourage hydration, slow movement, integration of experience; may combine with grounding or gentle breathing techniques |
🧬 Why Decompression Is So Important
Oxygen Gradient Shift: As pressure drops, oxygen partial pressure in tissues exceeds capillary levels — oxygen diffuses more effectively into hypoxic or inflamed tissues.
Nitric Oxide (NO) Cascade: NO release during decompression promotes vasodilation and mitochondrial biogenesis.
Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) Signaling: Brief, mild ROS increase triggers antioxidant enzyme upregulation (hormetic response).
Improved Lymphatic Flow: The alternating compression–decompression acts like a “massage” for interstitial fluid dynamics.
Is mHBOT Safe for You?
mHBOT is safe for most, but certain conditions require caution.
- Absolute contraindications: untreated collapsed lung, active seizures, specific chemotherapies (e.g., Bleomycin).
- Relative contraindications: pregnancy, COPD/asthma (in some cases), claustrophobia, or recent ear/thoracic surgery — consult your physician.
