Planning your visit
Physician referrals and self-referrals are accepted. A physician prescribes HBOT; the center offers a medical-doctor visit before treatment.
Arrive 15–20 minutes early to change into a provided gown; wear 100% cotton undergarments. Dressing rooms and lockers are available for street clothes and personal items. Avoid deodorant, lotions, cosmetics, hair products and petroleum-based products before treatment. Remove dentures and hearing devices. Tell the team about medication changes, cold or congestion, fever, nausea, pregnancy, anxiety, and implanted devices; the center checks device pressure compatibility. Each chamber has a television. Give at least 24 hours’ notice to cancel. Review the clinic’s full preparation page for its additional smoking, drinks and dental-work requirements.
