How hyperbaric oxygen therapy supports recovery
When oxygen is delivered under increased pressure, it dissolves more easily into the bloodstream and body tissues.
This increased oxygen supply can:
support cellular repair
improve circulation
reduce inflammation
promote tissue healing
support brain recovery
For children experiencing neurological or systemic challenges, this additional oxygen can help support the body’s ability to repair and regulate itself.

What happens during hyperbaric oxygen therapy
During a hyperbaric oxygen therapy session, the child sits or lies comfortably inside a specialised chamber.
The chamber is gradually pressurised while the child breathes oxygen through a mask or within the chamber environment. Sessions are calm and closely monitored by trained professionals.
Many children relax, watch a film or listen to music during their session.
Each session typically lasts between 60 and 90 minutes depending on the therapy plan.
