Oxygen · The Science

More oxygen. Exponential repair.

Pressure changes everything. Inside a hyperbaric chamber, oxygen reaches places normal breathing can't.

What it is

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT)

HBOT delivers oxygen at increased atmospheric pressure inside a sealed chamber. Under pressure, far more oxygen dissolves directly into the blood plasma and tissues — fuelling repair, energy and recovery at the cellular level.

The mechanism

What happens inside the body

Pressure + oxygen

Higher pressure dissolves more oxygen into the blood than breathing at sea level ever could.

Cellular repair

Oxygen-rich tissue accelerates healing and supports the growth of new blood vessels.

Reduced inflammation

HBOT modulates inflammation and supports immune function.

Brain & energy

More oxygen to the brain supports focus, clarity and recovery.

Typical treatment pressure

Beyond its long-established role in wound healing, HBOT has produced striking ageing data. A 2020 trial (Hachmo et al., published in Aging) put 35 adults aged 64+ through 60 daily sessions and found telomere length in immune cells rose by over 20%, while senescent ‘aged’ T-helper cells fell by about 37% — biomarkers of cellular ageing moving in reverse.

How it's used

Protocols that work

Protocols vary by goal; performance and recovery programmes often run multiple sessions per week.

Sessions typically last 60–90 minutes at pressure.

Helix chambers are specified, sited and supported to commercial standards.

HBOT has contraindications; clinical screening is part of every Helix installation.

The systems

Install hyperbaric, properly.
