Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)

Hard-shell hyperbaric oxygen therapy at CM VIMED in Warsaw Mokotów.

Supervised by Dr n. med. Anita Bania, the clinic's named hyperbaric-medicine specialist, with intercom monitoring throughout. Booked by phone — pricing quoted on enquiry.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy at CM VIMED is delivered as a clinical service inside a Sechrist-manufactured hard-shell monoplace chamber. The chamber is acrylic-bodied, rated up to 3.2 ATA (atmospheres absolute) per the clinic's published chamber-page meta description, and uses 99.5% medical-grade oxygen delivered via mask through a filtered one-way valve system. Each session lasts approximately 90 minutes and delivers around 3,000 litres of oxygen, with the flow rate adjustable between 15 and 60 litres per minute depending on the patient. Patient contact with staff is maintained over an intercom for the full session. CM VIMED's HBOT programme is positioned inside a broader functional- and lifestyle-medicine practice rather than a pure HBOT studio. The clinic's website lists indications spanning stem-cell mobilisation (paired with the in-house VIMED Terapia Fenotypowa® stem-cell programme), tissue regeneration, chronic inflammatory conditions, cardiovascular adjuncts, neurological support, post-surgical recovery, and anti-aging applications. HBOT is supervised by Dr n. med. Anita Bania, a sports-medicine internist whose specialty range explicitly includes hyperbaric medicine, supported by lek. med. Dariusz Kaczorowski (general surgery + emergency medicine). The clinic recommends a personalised consultation before starting therapy so that protocol and contraindications are aligned with each patient's health profile. At up to 3.2 ATA, this is an unambiguously clinical-grade hard-shell setup — physically incompatible with the soft-shell inflatable wellness chambers (which top out around 1.4 ATA) that dominate Poland's wellness-tier HBOT segment. UHMS-recognised clinical indications such as decompression sickness, severe non-healing wounds, and carbon-monoxide poisoning are normally directed to hospital-based HBO units; CM VIMED's chamber sits in the elective / longevity / regenerative-medicine bracket within Poland's private market. Pricing for single sessions and packages is not published on the website. The cennik page explicitly says: "Aktualnie trwają prace nad aktualizacją tej zakładki. Pytaj o pakiety – w pakietach taniej!" ("This page is being updated. Ask about packages — packages are cheaper!"). New-patient enquiries are routed via +48 22 535 35 63 or +48 603 395 844 (mobile), with email [email protected]. Existing patients have a separate care-coordination line on +48 22 201 90 71.

Contraindications listed by the clinic include acute sinus inflammation, untreated ear disorders, history of seizures, current cisplatin chemotherapy, pregnancy, high fever, history of pneumothorax, optic neuritis, recent chest surgery, incompatible pacemakers, lung disease with CO₂ retention, and active bleeding. The intake conversation will normally screen for each of these.
