Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) at The Artisan Clinic involves breathing 100% pure oxygen inside a pressurised chamber at approximately 2 atmospheres absolute (ATA) — roughly twice normal atmospheric pressure. Each session lasts 90 minutes, with 5-minute air breaks incorporated every 20 minutes to optimise oxygen saturation and minimise the risk of oxygen toxicity.

The science behind HBOT rests on Henry's Law: at elevated pressures, significantly more oxygen dissolves directly into blood plasma, reaching tissues that red blood cells cannot access. This hyperoxygenation state triggers a cascade of biological responses that underpin the therapy's wide-ranging benefits.

For longevity and anti-ageing, clinical research has demonstrated that a structured HBOT protocol can lengthen telomeres by up to 38% and reduce senescent cell counts by up to 37% — two of the most sought-after biomarkers of biological age reversal. The therapy also stimulates stem cell proliferation and mobilisation from bone marrow, supports mitochondrial function, and accelerates the clearance of damaged cellular debris.
