Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) FAQs

  • HBOT is a non-invasive therapy where you breathe in 100% oxygen inside a pressurised chamber. At Revive Health Group, our chambers operate at 1.4 to 1.5 ATA, allowing more oxygen to dissolve into your bloodstream—supporting healing, reducing inflammation, and enhancing recovery.

  • Benefits may include:
    - Accelerated recovery from injury or surgery
    - Reduced inflammation and swelling
    - Enhanced cognitive performance
    - Better energy and sleep
    - Immune support
    - Skin and tissue regeneration

  • Some clients see benefits after just a few sessions, while others may require a full course of 10–40 sessions depending on their goals or health concerns.
    We offer discounted packages in our Protocols section, designed to help you stay consistent and save over time.

  • We recommend wearing light, comfortable clothing, such as a t-shirt and leggings or joggers. Avoid using perfumes, body lotions, or heavy skincare products prior to your session.

  • You may feel mild ear pressure as the chamber pressurises—similar to flying—but this equalises quickly. Most clients find the experience relaxing, and often nap or listen to music during their session.

  • Yes. Our chambers operate at mild pressures (1.4–1.5 ATA), which are commonly used in wellness and recovery settings. All sessions are overseen by trained staff, and we review your health information prior to treatment.

  • Common uses include:
    - Sports injuries and post-op recovery
    - Long COVID symptoms
    - Chronic fatigue or brain fog
    - Inflammatory conditions
    - Skin concerns
    While HBOT supports healing and recovery, it is not a substitute for medical care. Please consult your healthcare provider before starting.

  • Yes. After booking your HBOT session, the booking confirmation page will include a link to our mandatory health screening form (via O2Providers). This form must be completed at least 24 hours before your appointment to avoid rescheduling.

Red Light & Near Infrared Therapy FAQs

  • Red and NIR therapy uses therapeutic light wavelengths to stimulate cellular energy production, reduce inflammation, and promote healing. Our advanced LED bed delivers 42,000 dual-wavelength LEDs for full-body exposure and maximum effectiveness.

  • Reported benefits include:
    - Improved skin tone and collagen production
    - Relief from joint and muscle pain
    - Enhanced circulation and tissue healing
    - Hormonal support and energy boost
    - Faster post-workout recovery
    - Reduced fatigue and improved mood

  • Red and NIR light penetrate your skin and stimulate the mitochondria to produce more ATP (cellular energy). This boosts your body’s natural healing and regeneration processes.

  • Standard sessions are 12 minutes for adults (18+).
    Session lengths are adjusted by age for safety:
    - Ages 13–15: 8 minutes
    - Ages 16–17: 10 minutes
    - Ages 18+: 12 minutes
    Parental permission is required for all clients under 18.

  • Wear light, comfortable clothing, but for best results, we recommend exposing as much skin as possible during your session.
    Please arrive free from makeup, lotions, oils, or creams, as these can block light absorption.
    Avoid sessions if you’re currently taking antibiotics or other light-sensitive medications—our team can advise if unsure.

  • Yes. It’s non-invasive, pain-free, and widely used. You may feel gentle warmth but no discomfort. We adjust session times based on age to ensure safe exposure for younger clients.

  • Most clients begin with 2–3 sessions per week, and we offer discounted protocols for those looking to commit to a consistent plan and maximise results.

  • Yes. The red light booking page includes embedded screening questions that must be completed before your session.

  • Yes—and we highly recommend it! HBOT increases oxygen delivery at the cellular level, while red light boosts your cells’ ability to use that oxygen effectively. Together, they offer powerful, synergistic benefits for healing, energy, performance, and wellness.
    We offer combined therapy protocols with our highest available discounts, designed to maximise your results and overall value.

  • These therapies are safe for most people, but may not be suitable if you:

    - Take light-sensitive medications like antibiotics
    - Have severe claustrophobia (in the case of HBOT)
    - Have active sinus congestion, ear infections, or a history of ear barotrauma (HBOT-specific)
    We’ll conduct a pre-screening to make sure each therapy is safe and appropriate for you.
