Kia ora koutou, I know that Debs has a beauty salon but she also has a ‘He Koha Aroha’ (a beautiful gift) in that of a ‘Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber’ which I swear by. I’ve had shoulder surgery and once I got into her ‘Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber’ the recovery has been phenomenal both the physiotherapist and surgeon have been astounded by the rapid recovery at this point. Jeepers to me it was a “Blinking Miracle” as from my previous surgery on my opposite shoulder in 2006 and without the resources of a ‘Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber’ the recovery then was a long, long, long and mentally depressing process. The time in the chamber was an hour which could have been extended if not being awoken from the best of sleeps. With each session it gives you a real ‘Pick Up’, equivalent to having a ‘Power Nap’ not that I could do much due to injury. In the chamber the air is way fresher than when stepping out, I could breathe better probably due to my asthma, it gave me clarity and a positive mindset. So, thanks Debs for having the ‘Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber’ resource available here in Invercargill. I totally believe that the healing process the ‘Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber’ has is right up there.
Hyperbaric oxygen chamber is non-invasive, relaxing & healing. The process involves breathing 95% pure oxygen in a pressurised pod. The air pressure is increased to 50% higher than normal air pressure. Under these conditions, your lungs can gather more oxygen than would be possible breathing pure oxygen at normal air pressure. Your blood carries this oxygen through your body. This helps fight bacteria & stimulate the release of substances called growth factors, and stem cells which promote healing. Sessions within the pod are relaxing and comfortable. You can read a book, listen to music or simply sleep.
