HBOT chamber rentals in Dallas are available for those who want to use the healing benefits of mild hyperbaric oxygen therapy at home. HBOT uses pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber to treat decompression sickness, ear infections and wounds that won’t heal. It’s also been shown to enhance recovery from concussions and other traumatic brain injuries. The protocol has been dubbed “brain rescue” in the media because it can help prevent or reverse the 11 major risk factors for cognitive decline, which are referred to as the BRIGHT MINDS acronym.

Can HBOT make you younger?

Currently, the FDA has only cleared two types of hyperbaric chambers for use: acrylic chambers that hold one person (monoplace chambers) and steel chambers that can fit five or more people at the same time (multiple-place chambers). However, in the desperation of patients who do not find relief from traditional medical treatment options, many physicians promote the off-label use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy for conditions such as autism, fibromyalgia, Lyme disease, and idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss. This off-label use of hyperbaric chambers can be considered a violation of FDA regulations, particularly when it is promoted using inflatable chambers that cannot be pressurized to the level required by the UHMS for safe treatment.

Additionally, some inflatable hyperbaric chambers are so flimsy that they do not meet NFPA standards for safety and are susceptible to fire. Unfortunately, these portable, inflatable hyperbaric chambers have been responsible for several fire incidents, and in at least one case, a woman and her child died as the result of a fire within an HBOT chamber.
