Hyperbaric therapy (HBOT) accelerates healing and regeneration by saturating blood plasma with oxygen at increased pressure. The
Oxyhelp® monoplace chamber runs at
2 bar (2.0 ATA), creating an oxygen-enriched hyperbaric environment that reaches tissues with reduced vascularisation and activates cellular regeneration processes. We use
two AirSep Intensity concentrators, calibrated at 7 l/min per unit for a total flow of
14 l/min, double the adult respiratory requirement, keeping oxygen purity between
93% and 96% throughout the session. At 2.0 ATA, oxygen dissolves directly into the plasma according to Henry's Law, reaching roughly 4.2 ml O₂ per 100 ml of plasma, the threshold at which CD34+ stem cell mobilisation is triggered
8 times more than at sea level (Thom et al., Journal of Applied Physiology). This is the protocol used by leading centres in Israel (Sagol Center, Shamir, Efrati et al.) and the USA for neurological regeneration and anti-aging, without the risks of CNS toxicity, lipid peroxidation and severe vasoconstriction associated with 3.0 ATA pressure. See the full scientific rationale on the
Why 2 bar (US / Israel protocol) page.
The 4 stages of a session: 1) preparation and acclimatisation in light cotton clothing; 2) gradual compression in 3 intensity steps to protect the eardrum and sinuses; 3) the maintenance therapy at constant pressure, when oxygen saturates the plasma; 4) slow, controlled decompression, to let the vessels and lungs readjust. The chamber is actively sterilised with UV light (a standard imported from Israel/USA) and ventilated through silver nano-ion filters with antibacterial and antiviral action. The AirSep concentrators are replaced preventively every 15,000 hours (versus the 20,000–30,000 hours guaranteed by the manufacturer); the filters are replaced monthly (versus the 3-month standard). Standard sessions of
60, 90, 120 or 180 minutes, in packs of 5–40 hours depending on your goal. The 5- and 10-hour packs are valid for 30 days from the first session; the 20- and 40-hour packs, for 90 days. We recommend a cure of 20–30 hours for soft-tissue conditions (muscular, cutaneous, organs) and 40–60 hours for bone tissue. For concrete results, most protocols call for a minimum of 10 sessions.
