In today’s fast-paced world, people are constantly exploring new ways to support their overall wellness. One method growing in popularity across Australia is the hyperbaric oxygen session—a non-invasive experience designed to enhance your body’s exposure to oxygen in a pressurised environment. While traditionally associated with medical environments, more wellness centres are now offering this experience to support relaxation and recovery as part of a healthy lifestyle.
At its core, a hyperbaric oxygen chamber involves sitting or lying inside a specially designed sealed space where the air pressure is increased to above normal atmospheric levels. This environment helps your body take in more oxygen than it would under standard conditions.
Cell Life offers hard and soft shell chambers, which provide calm, comfortable spaces to choose from for users to enjoy this wellness practice with the support of trained staff.
Once inside the chamber, the pressure gradually increases while you continue to breathe normally. Some users describe the sensation as similar to being on an airplane during takeoff. The session is a relaxing experience with people bringing reading or listening material to compliment their time while on ‘the dive’.
Importantly, Cell Life hyperbaric chambers are intended to be part of a broader wellness routine, complementing healthy habits like regular exercise, good sleep, and a balanced diet.
These sessions are popular with a wide range of people—from athletes looking to support their pre or post-training performance and recovery, to wellness-minded individuals curious about new ways to feel energised and refreshed.
Whether you’ve just completed an intense workout or simply want to unwind after a long day, a hyperbaric session may be a helpful tool in your wellness toolkit.
While individual experiences can vary, many people report that after a session they feel:
Users generally include 2-3 sessions as part of their weekly wellness routine to optimise oxygen intake and support overall vitality. Interested in learning more?
