I had three sessions of HBOT ahead of an important football match.

After my fitness sessions before the match, I felt like I had more energy as a result of the HBOT and didn’t have my usual recovery aches.

The match took place in 30 degrees heat following which I would expect to feel really tired and would take me a couple of days to recover. However, the day after the match I felt ready to carry on with my usual sport.

Sarah – the therapist is very friendly , from start to finish she’s with you all the way explaining everything and making sure you’re alright and feeling looked after.

The treatment room is a lovely, clean and bright environment where your privacy is ensured.

Thank you Sarah, for your kindness and patience in helping me past my initial fear of going into the hyperbaric chamber.

It has been an amazing experience for me. I went in thinking that an hour lying down, reading and breathing pure clean air would be beneficial, which it is, but after a couple of sessions I began feel much more alert. I have never been a, ‘morning person’, but am now finding it very easy to wake up in the morning and get on with my day.

Another effect of the treatment for me is the effect it has had on my arthritis which is particularly bad in my hands. I have a lot more flexibility in my fingers and the shooting pains I used to get in my thumbs have gone. I feel a lot less tired on a daily basis. Before having this treatment my breathing after exertion, such as simply climbing the stairs, was laboured but now, I just don’t even think about dashing upstairs, it’s much easier than before.

I would recommend this treatment to anyone, go there with an open mind, you might be surprised at how good it is, I was!

My father suffers from dementia. It developed quickly and within a few months he went from being extremely outgoing to being very introverted. He stopped starting conversation and simply responded to questions. He began to spend more and more time just watching the television, something he rarely did. Straight after watching a programme he had no recollection of what he had watched. He was needing more and more support. I couldn't bear to see my vibrant father 'disappearing' day by day.

At the insistence of a friend who emigrated to Australia some years before I booked my father a series of sessions at a Hyperbaric Chamber. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is well established in Australia and often used to help dementia sufferers, she could not understand why it wasn't in the UK.

Within five sessions the change in my father was very noticeable. He began to talk again and wanted to go for walks again (he was always a keen walker). After ten more treatments the difference has been quite profound. It was like I had my father back!!

I am looking forward to seeing the results at the end of his package of sessions.
