This improvement in health and performance is achieved through its products and services, both for individuals and professionals, from different sectors. "Our goal is to make these technologies available to everyone and that anyone can benefit from their use, for this reason we have a wide range of prices for our products and services," says Carlos Huerta, CEO of O2life Group.
Hyperbaric chambers sound like something reserved for eccentric stars or people with very high purchasing power. The truth is that, in general, there is a lot of misinformation about it and it still sounds like something very expensive and inaccessible to most people. The most famous thing is that it is footballers or celebrities who use them or have them in their mansions, but far from it. Today anyone can access these technologies and have a hyperbaric chamber at their home or go to one of our centers where sessions are offered at very reasonable prices.
What benefits do hyperbaric chambers bring and to what kind of people?
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy brings benefits to anyone who can use it. Improves the functioning of the body in general. If we go to specific effects, these would be some: increases physical performance, activates collagen, improves neuroplasticity, reduces inflammation and pain, improves sleep, increases energy, reduces stress, fights viral and bacteriological infections, etc. If you want more information, I invite you to visit our website www.o2lifehiperbaricas.com.
Its operation, explained in a generic way, consists of breathing oxygen under pressure, this is carried out in a hermetic and pressurizable device capable of maintaining a pressure higher than atmospheric and allowing comfort conditions for human use. Due to the pressure and an extra supply of oxygen, the body is able to absorb and store much higher amounts of oxygen than usual. The increase in absorption allows oxygen to dissolve directly into body fluids, such as blood plasma, lymph, central nervous system fluids and cerebrospinal fluid, bones...
In recent years, more and more people suffer from fibromyalgia. How can the hyperbaric chamber help them?
Yes, unfortunately we have noticed an increase in the number of clients who come to us with this specific problem but it motivates us a lot to know that the use of the camera is helping them to improve their quality of life. Fibromyalgia is a disease characterized mainly by generalized chronic pain, constitutional syndrome and sleep disorders. In addition, it is associated with genetic and epigenetic factors. The management of this disease is challenging and expensive, which is why new alternatives have been sought, such as oxygenation treatment with a hyperbaric chamber, which has shown notable improvement in terms of pain reduction in patients with fibromyalgia.
The efficacy of this treatment is influenced by different mechanisms such as the induction of neuroplasticity, acting on pain perception areas and reducing the anti-inflammatory response and pain. In this case, it has been shown that the use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy helps to "slow down" the progression of the disease and improve the quality of life of the elderly, since it increases the diffusion and passage of oxygen to the tissues, increases the recovery of joint and muscle mobility, improves circulatory deficiency and contains anti-inflammatory and regenerative effects.
They also help athletes. In fact, they are collaborating with the National Institute of Physical Education of Catalonia (INEFC). What can you tell us about it?
Yes of course. In the field of sports, this technology has a huge impact on improving performance, preventing and recovering from injuries, among other benefits. It has been used for many years by world-class athletes. In fact, we work directly with some of different sports, such as the boxer Kiko Martínez, the paddle tennis player Sanyo Gutiérrez, or the ultra runner Pere Aurell.
O2Life Group has started a collaboration process with INEFC (Catalonia) in a first phase consisting of a series of training sessions, both for teachers and students, where we transfer a series of studies of HBOT applied to sport, its benefits and functionalities. O2Life Group moves training personnel (technical management, commercial management and medical training personnel) together with a series of O2 and H2 equipment, making available to attendees the possibility of testing them during training sessions.
What other products do you sell?
Apart from all the models of hyperbaric chambers (flexible, portable, rigid, single-place, multi-place and with different pressures), we also offer innovative technologies such as hydrogen inhalers, water hydrogenators, pulsating red light in different formats and electromagnet therapy. We love being constantly in development and we want to continue contributing our bit to improve people's quality of life.
We always try to personalize the attention to each client according to their specific needs and, in this way, ensure that all our products are available to anyone.
