MILD HYPERBARIC OXYGEN THERAPY
Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (mHBOT) combines increased atmospheric pressure with supplemental oxygen to create an oxygen-rich environment designed to support the body's natural recovery processes. As part of an integrated wellness and recovery plan, mild HBOT may be used to support recovery surrounding physical stress, demanding training, and periods when the body and brain would benefit from intentional rest and restoration.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (mHBOT) involves relaxing inside a chamber pressurized above normal atmospheric pressure, with oxygen provided according to the chamber's specific setup. At Built to Rise, mild HBOT is offered as a wellness and recovery service designed to complement an intentional approach to recovery, resilience, and overall well-being.
-
Medical hyperbaric oxygen therapy typically uses substantially higher pressures and near-100% medical-grade oxygen under medical supervision to treat specific medical conditions. Mild HBOT uses lower pressures and is not a substitute for physician-prescribed medical hyperbaric treatment.
-
You'll relax inside the chamber while it gradually pressurizes. You may notice pressure in your ears similar to what you experience during airplane travel or changing elevation. Once at the intended pressure, you can relax for the remainder of your session before the chamber gradually depressurizes.
We'll review the process and safety guidelines with you before your first session so you know exactly what to expect.
-
Mild HBOT may appeal to athletes and active individuals looking to incorporate another modality into their recovery routine, as well as individuals interested in cognitive wellness, intentional recovery, resilience, and proactive whole-body wellness.
If you're considering sessions before or after surgery, following an injury, or because of a medical condition, we recommend discussing HBOT with your treating healthcare provider first.
-
There isn't one schedule that's appropriate for everyone. Frequency depends on your goals, health history, other recovery practices, and how you're incorporating mild HBOT into your overall wellness plan.
Built to Rise offers individual sessions as well as multi-session options so your experience can be personalized rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach.
-
No. Hyperbaric environments aren't appropriate for everyone, and certain health conditions, medications, recent procedures, respiratory concerns, or difficulty equalizing ear pressure may require medical clearance or make hyperbaric exposure inappropriate.
All clients complete appropriate screening before their first session, and we'll review chamber-specific safety requirements with you before use.
-
Item descriptiCome in comfortable clothing and follow the preparation instructions provided before your appointment. Because oxygen-enriched and pressurized environments require specific fire and equipment precautions, certain clothing, electronics, personal-care products, and other items may not be permitted inside the chamber.
We'll provide a clear preparation and safety checklist before your first session.
