Why Oxygen Therapy Supports Emotional Recovery
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy increases the level of oxygen that dissolves into your blood plasma. This happens by stepping into an inflated chamber where the pressure is gently raised.
You may choose to wear a nasal cannula for higher oxygen delivery through your nose — enhancing nitric oxide production, which improves oxygen absorption. Breathing out through your mouth reduces carbon dioxide more efficiently, helping your body recover faster.
This extra oxygen does three key things:
- It reduces inflammation in the brain and body
- It helps the brain create new neural connections
- It encourages cellular repair in oxygen-deprived areas
Research suggests it can support people with:
- PTSD or unresolved emotional trauma
- Persistent anxiety or low mood
- Sleep disruption caused by nervous system fatigue
- Burnout and cognitive overload
- Brain fog and concentration issues
Clients often say the mental noise quietens and a feeling of calm lingers afterwards. Some nap, some read, others sit in silence.
What Happens in a Session
You will lie down inside the chamber for 45 to 90 minutes. It begins with a mild pressurising phase, which can feel like flying in a plane. Once at full pressure, most people settle in quickly.
You do not need to change your clothes. Joggers, pyjamas, or your favourite hoodie are all welcome.
The chamber is sealed during use due to the pressurised environment, but pressure can be safely released by turning a manual dial — similar to slowing down before stopping a fast-moving bike.
Safety and Equipment
Our oxygen chamber is built from stainless steel and maintained by a professional engineer. It’s the same model used by members of the London Fire Brigade and Metropolitan Police.
It is ventilated, air-conditioned, and fitted with a manual latch for controlled depressurisation — offering safety without the feeling of being trapped.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can HBOT help with PTSD or anxiety?
Yes. In clinical trials where HBOT was used on its own, researchers observed significant improvements in brain function and emotional regulation.
What if I feel claustrophobic?
Most clients are surprised by how open and quiet the space feels. Though the chamber is pressurised, it is never locked in the conventional sense — you simply allow pressure to release before opening.
How soon will I feel a difference?
People respond differently. Some fast responders feel the effects after the first session. Others notice change after several visits. There is no fixed number.
Can I bring someone with me?
Yes. We welcome carers or companions and can walk them through what to expect.
Is it covered by the NHS?
No. All sessions are paid privately. We accept online payments or card in person.
