We've experienced first-hand the power of mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (mHBOT) and its ability to aid in the recovery from brain injury. Find out more here. Meet the Team Jo Willocks - Christchurch Together with my husband Ross, we own Christchurch Hyper Healing. Our story began through a difficult unforeseen event a few years ago. Through this time, we both saw first hand the true benefits of oxygen therapy in assisting the body to repair quite significant damage. This then sparked a much greater interest for us to research hyperbaric therapy further. Throughout Covid and hearing constantly about our very stretched healthcare system, we both felt we really wanted to be able to offer individuals an alternative way to assist in repair and recovery from events and injury. This opened up the opportunity for 'Hyper Healing'. We are passionate about hyperbaric therapy and we have seen and experienced huge benefits from using the chambers ourselves at home. It is exciting seeing clients empowered again and on the road to recovery. We look forward to talking with you about how hyperbaric oxygen therapy can enhance your life. Contact Jo & Ross Debra Dufty - Auckland My interest in mHBOT stemmed from witnessing the profound impact it had on my brother's recovery from a serious brain injury. This lead me to research and study the science behind oxygen therapy. I am based in Auckland, so you can now experience the benefits of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy in both Auckland and Christchurch. A busy working mother of three, I have a keen interest in sports, health and nutrition. A runner myself, with a child who is very dedicated to sport, my son and I are using mHBOT for performance enhancement as well as training and racing recovery. Contact Debra

Find out what all the hype is about. Discover the benefits of mHBOT and how it helps the body to heal and recover from illness and injury. How mHBOT works Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy involves you sitting or lying down inside a soft-shell hyperbaric chamber, just like the one in these photos. Once inside, the chamber is inflated to either 1.15 ATA or 1.3 ATA. For reference 1.0 ATA is the atmospheric air pressure we all experience every day. The nasal cannula is then popped in place so you are breathing about 95% oxygen for a duration of somewhere between 30 - 90 minutes, depending on your protocol. It's that simple! Talk to us about a free trial What is mHBOT? mHBOT isn't a cure, but it does hugely enhance your body's ability to heal itself. While you're inside a pressurised oxygen chamber, your mitochondria will be saturated with life-giving oxygen. This stimulates the production of stem cells, reduces inflammation and recovery time, heals your tissues, increases your energy levels, and even reverses the aging process. Talk to us to find out more Turn back the clock Research shows that regular use of HBOT actually reverses the aging process. Israeli scientists calculated the biological age of 35 adults over the age of 64, by measuring the damage caused to chromosomes through the natural aging process. After five HBOT treatments of 90 minutes per week, over a period of three months, and with varying rates of oxygen, the scientists measured the chromosomes again. They found that, at a cellular level at least, the participants bodies' were back to the same as they had been 25 years earlier! Professor Shai Efrai said "This study is proof that the cellular basis for the aging process can be reversed". Learn More mHBOT can help mHBOT maximises the body's ability to fight all sorts of conditions, including long Covid, cognitive decline, concussion, strokes, Alzheimer's disease, fibromyalgia and traumatic brain injuries. Research Links What's the difference between mHBOT and hard-shell hospital hyperbarics? Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is quite different to the higher pressures experienced inside hard-shell Hyperbaric Chambers operated in hospitals around New Zealand. Those chambers are capable of much higher pressures and are able to treat a much wider range of clinical conditions including wounds and gangrene. Research shows that the mild version of HBOT is safer, gentler and better at treating cognitive issues and long Covid. Have More Questions?

Customer Testimonials "I was introduced to the benefits of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy after I sustained a serious brain injury in mid-2021. I was still suffering from dizziness, brain fog, word-finding issues, and memory loss many months later. It was clear that my Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) was not improving, and my recovery had stalled. I was worried about my long-term health outcomes, and the increased chances of contracting neurological conditions such as dementia, Alzheimer’s Disease, or Parkinson’s Disease. In February 2022, I heard about Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy as a potential solution. After speaking to several people who had used mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (mHBOT) successfully, examining the research and studying the science, I purchased a chamber and installed it into my home. Within two weeks of using it for 60-90 minutes daily, I started to feel the results. After such a long time with little or no progress, I was ecstatic. After about six weeks, I was able to add more working hours to my week, had far fewer issues with forgetfulness, dizziness, slurring of speech, and word-finding, and I was able to get back to running every day. A year on, I was almost completely back to normal, competing in ultramarathons, and doing the job I love. I really believe the oxygen therapy has turned my life around, and I couldn't recommend it enough." Mike Field - Christchurch Keen to know more?

Treatments While mHBOT may not be a cure, it can aid in recovery and offer respite from a number of debilitating conditions. You don't need to be unwell for mHBOT to help, however. It is great for general wellness and can assist athletes in achieving their peak performance to get the edge on their competitors. Talk to us about how mHBOT can benefit you. Contact us mHBOT for Brain Injuries, Concussion, Dementia & Neurological Conditions At Hyper Healing we understand brain injuries. We know how it feels to have a hidden disability and how difficult it can be to cope with the 'new you'. We also know what it is like to have a loved family member who is no longer the same person. We saw and experienced first-hand how mHBOT helped Mike after his first and second significant traumatic brain injuries in 2021 and 2022. Within about ten days of starting mHBOT, Mike was getting results that eight months of 'normal' therapies hadn't. There are now thousands of studies and research articles supporting the positive benefits of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for your brain. By saturating your blood with oxygen, research shows that mHBOT helps heal your brain by: promoting neuroplasticity - rewiring your brain around damaged areas reducing inflammation - cytokine reduction reducing swelling on the brain mitogenesis - healthier cells and more mitochondria increasing blood flow around the brain improving brain structure This results in: faster healing better cognitive performance/more focus/better memory more energy less brain fog better sleep reduced chance of long term damage and ongoing neurological issues a reduction/alleviation of the symptoms of Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and other dementias Find out more about mHBOT HBOT for Long Covid We are now all familiar with the symptoms of Covid-19. For some, this can be quite mild. For others, life-threatening and fatal. Up to 20% of those who have caught Covid-19 will go on to develop Long Covid. Long Covid symptoms can be quite different for each person, but are nonetheless devastating. The main symptoms are brain fog, fatigue, insomnia, widespread pain and loss of energy. These symptoms can last for months, and sometimes years. To date, research is showing that Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy has the best results in supporting those suffering from Long Covid. Peer reviewed, randomised controlled studies on those with Long Covid have shown that HBOT: reduces hypoxia reduces neuroinflammation induces neuroplasticity and neurogenesis - rewires the brain significantly improves brain structure, as seen in fMRI scans increases oxygen flow to all cells in the body, stimulating mitochondrial growth and multiplication This results in: a significant reduction in Long Covid symptoms better sleep more energy significant reductions in pain, including headaches, joint pain, and widespread pain improved cognitive function, processing, memory, attention and executive function Talk to us about a free trial mHBOT for General Health & Wellness Flooding your body with life-giving oxygen under pressure means every cell in your body will benefit. Which means YOU benefit, helping you to be the healthiest version of yourself, from the inside out. Not only is mHBOT great for general health and wellbeing, research also demonstrates that mHBOT can play a significant role in slowing down the aging process. Participants in studies who have used mHBOT have reduced their aging biomarkers significantly. In multiple peer reviewed studies, mHBOT has been shown to: significantly increase collagen production and density significantly increase blood vessels in the skin clear out and recycle dying cells - autophagy reduce 'zombie' cells - senescence increase angiogenesis - the growth of new blood vessels and capillaries increase mitogenesis and cellular health - mitochondria grow in size and multiply increase neurogenesis - the growth of new brain cells fight bacteria and toxins significantly reduce inflammation increase fibroblast cell production increase antioxidant defences and combat oxidative stress This leads to: a significant slowing of the aging process improved blood flow and oxygen carrying around the body a stronger immune system a reduction in stress and anxiety more energy better sleep better mental focus and clarity, and improved multitasking better overall health and wellness younger looking skin healthier joints and connective tissue a healthier sex life View our packages HBOT for Athletic Injury & Enhanced Performance Elite athletes such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Michael Phelps, Tiger Woods, Novak Djokovic, Valentino Rossi, and LeBron James use HBOT as a regular part of their routine. There's a reason that many of the world's elite athletes are turning to Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. Saturating the body with oxygen under pressure has a multitude of direct benefits, whether an athlete is trying to recover from an injury, or just wants to alleviate muscle soreness and stiffness after training or a workout. Take Andre Joubert. Back in 1995, the Springbok fullback broke three bones in his hand during a World Cup Match against Samoa. He had emergency surgery the same day. Usually an injury of this nature requires about seven weeks to recover, however, the Springboks needed Joubert to play against France in the semi-final just seven days later. After multiple sessions in an HBOT chamber, Joubert went on to make history as part of the team who beat France, then the All Blacks a week later in the final which saw Nelson Mandela pass the William Ellis trophy to Francois Pienaar. HBOT is an approved treatment by WADA - the World Anti-Doping Agency, so why wouldn't you want to use it to gain the edge? Peer reviewed research shows that HBOT helps athletes by: increasing collagen production stimulating stem cell production stimulating angiogenesis stimulating mitogenesis and neurogenesis increasing fibroblast activation This results in: faster recovery time from sports-related and high impact injuries such as sprains, bruises, tears and fractures faster recovery from fatigue and muscle strain decreased lactic acid a reduction in inflammation and pain faster recovery from head injuries and concussions reduced scarring better cognitive performance better sleep See how mHBOT works

Want to know more? We've answered our most frequently asked questions about Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy right here. Your questions answered. Have a question? We've answered our most frequently answered questions about mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy right here. If you want to know something we haven't covered, please check our research links or get in touch . 01 Is mild HBOT safe? Yes, very safe. There are no adverse side effects, so it is much safer than many conventional medicines and treatments. We start off with low pressures and short time frames, and gradually build up from there. The only sensation you will feel is a 'popping' sensation in your ears as the chamber pressurises, just like you do when flying in an aeroplane. At higher pressures some people may feel some pain in their inner ear, but this is very rare in mHBOT, and is the reason we gradually increase pressure, and the length of time spent in the chamber. I did feel pain in my ear when I was suffering from a sinus infection at 1.3ATA, but this disappeared when I lowered the pressure to 1.15ATA. 02 What happens when I come in for a trial? You will come to our premises in Auckland or Canterbury and trial our soft-shell chamber for up to 30 minutes. We will give you your own brand new nasal cannula to use. You can sit down and ask as many questions as you like, then experience the chamber yourself. If you like, you can have a support person with you, who can sit in the room with you while you are in the chamber. You can communicate with Mike or Deb at any stage during the process by cellphone. The whole process will take just over an hour. 03 What do I do when I'm inside the chamber? Anything you like! You can sleep, read a book, study, answer emails, make phone calls, or scroll mindlessly through your social feed. Rest and relax or use the time to be productive, while your body gets saturated with life-giving oxygen. 04 What happens if I'm claustrophobic? If you struggle with anxiety in small, enclosed spaces, you may struggle to be inside the chamber. Sometimes, introducing you to the chamber in gentle stages helps with this. Talk to us first and we'll do our best to help you feel as safe and comfortable as possible if you decide to give it a go. 05 What does it feel like inside the chamber? You will feel a popping sensation inside your ears, just like on an aeroplane, as the air pressure increases or decreases. You will also have a nasal cannula or face mask on, breathing 95% oxygen. Afterwards, many people feel quite tired, and sleep really well that night. Others come out bursting with energy immediately. It depends on you, and how your body responds. 06 Which conditions have a research base demonstrating mHBOT effectiveness? First, we want to reiterate - mHBOT doesn't 'cure' anything! But it does hugely enhance your body's ability to heal itself. Following an mHBOT protocol, the human body has shown a wonderful ability to respond markedly and significantly to the following conditions, even years after they first presented: - Concussion - Post Concussion Syndrome - Traumatic Brain Injury - Covid 19, and especially long Covid - Neurological issues such as cognitive decline, dementia, Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's Disease - Fogginess, memory-loss, fatigue, loss of energy - Inflammatory diseases such as arthritis - Fibromyalgia - Chronic Fatigue Syndrome - Aging - Athletic Recovery 07 Is there a solid research base to HBOT and mHBOT? Yes, definitely! Have a look at the 'Research Links' page for more details. There are plenty of solid, scientific, peer-reviewed articles with great results, mostly using evidence of a type called 'Real World Experience', or RWE. However, it is impossible to do what researchers call 'randomised, controlled' trials or RCT, which is seen as the gold standard of scientific research trials. This is because you can't do HBOT on someone without them knowing, which you can do if you are trialling a new drug in tablet form, for example. International Health Technology Assessment criteria which assesses whether treatments are efficacious or not, typically only include evidence based on RCT trials, not RWE trials, which means that treatments such as HBOT have struggled to receive mainstream acceptance within the medical establishment. Thankfully, although there is a long way to go, the use of RWE evidence is increasingly accepted in scientific circles. This means that all of those thousands of people like Mike, who have got their lives back by using HBOT, are now starting to be listened to. 08 How long has HBOT been around? Hyperbaric Therapy was first documented 350 years ago, and by the late 1800's there were several reports of hyperbaric therapy being available to members of the public. The next development was the addition of supplemental oxygen in 1917 to assist decompression after diving accidents. HBOT was then primarily used to treat divers up until the 1950's, when doctors and scientists discovered the wider therapeutic benefits of HBOT. Since then the use of HBOT has become much more widespread, particularly overseas. Over the last few years in particular there has been an explosion of interest and research regarding the benefits of HBOT and mHBOT in treating a very wide range of conditions, with new research being published almost every week. It is rapidly expanding overseas, and New Zealand is slowly catching up! 09 Is mHBOT still useful even if I'm not unwell? Absolutely. Even if there is nothing "clinically" wrong with you, mHBOT will reduce fatigue, increase your energy, and reduce inflammation which is a major issue for many people today, due to our busy, stressful lives. mHBOT also helps stimulate the production of stem cells, which have a unique ability to transform into any cell type (blood cells, nerve cells etc), and they can also repair damaged tissue. 10 Can I overdose? Not with mild HBOT, no. Oxygen toxicity is possible at higher pressures than our chambers go to, but even then it is extremely unlikely in the hands of a skilled technician. Mike is a Certified Intermediate Hyperbaric Technician. 11 What's the difference between HBOT and 'mild' HBOT? The difference is in the amount of atmospheric pressure inside the chamber. Standard HBOT therapies in 'hard-shell' chambers can go up to 2.4ATA, or even higher. These require skilled and experienced technicians, and are found in hospitals all over New Zealand. They treat conditions such as crush injuries, infections and diabetic wounds where blood (and therefore oxygen) cannot reach. Mild HBOT typically goes no higher than 1.3 ATA, uses 'soft shell' chambers which are transportable, and is very safe. 12 Can I allow other people to use the chamber when I have it in my home? Absolutely you can. There is no limit on the number of hours you use the chamber while you are renting it. In fact, you can even sub-lease it yourself to help pay for the cost of hiring one in your own home. You will need to purchase additional nasal cannula though at $10 each - it is not hygienic to share these with others. Please note you cannot move the chamber yourself - once it is installed by our team in your home, it needs to stay where it is until the end of your rental, when we will return to collect it. 13 Is mHBOT safe during pregnancy? There isn't enough research on the use of mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy or HBOT during pregnancy, so at this stage we would prefer to be cautious and advise against it. We just don't have the statistics available to be sure. 14 How long does it usually take to see results? Everyone is different. I started to see results in less than two weeks of using the chamber every day for 60 minutes a time. Some people see results much faster. Forty sessions is often quoted as the gold standard for individuals, but this can vary hugely. I now have 5 x 90 minute sessions per week. The most important thing to realise is that your body starts to repair itself immediately, at the cellular level, during your very first session. You may or may not feel it straight away, but believe me your body is healing, regenerating and getting better! 15 Does HBOT cure cancer? There are some HBOT advocates claiming that the therapy has 'cured' them of cancer. We are much more cautious than this, and argue that HBOT doesn't 'cure' anything. What it does do is gives your body some great ammunition to fight cancer itself. It also helps you recover much faster from the demands of chemotherapy and radiation therapy. 16 Does HBOT really reverse aging? Yes, according to Israeli scientists. They calculated the biological age of 35 adults over the age of 64, by measuring the damage caused to chromosomes through the natural aging process. After five HBOT treatments of 90 minutes per week, over a period of three months, and with varying rates of oxygen, the scientists measured the chromosomes again. They found that, at a cellular level at least, the participants bodies' were now the same as they had been 25 years earlier! Professor Shai Efrai said "This study is proof that the cellular basis for the aging process can be reversed", and that it “gives hope and opens the door for a lot of young scientists to target aging as a reversible disease.”
