Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) at 2.0 ATA

Enhanced healing effects: At 2.0 ATA, HBOT significantly increases stem cell circulation—studies show over an eightfold rise in circulating stem cells, critical for tissue regeneration. Clinical guidance: Professional bodies often recommend 2.0–2.5 ATA for wound healing and post-injury therapy.

Contextual comparison: While 1.5 ATA is effective and may pose fewer side effects, 2.0 ATA sessions deliver oxygen faster, ideal when quick therapeutic impact is needed.

Emerging applications: Recent studies highlight therapeutic benefits at 2.0 ATA for Long COVID—such as reduced inflammation, improved cognition, fatigue relief, and recovery among athletes.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is also available at our Alexandria clinic. There is growing evidence of the efficacy of this treatment modality, and we strictly follow the guidelines from the “Tenth European Consensus Conference on Hyperbaric Medicine: recommendations for accepted and non-accepted clinical indications and practice of hyperbaric oxygen treatment” (Diving and Hyperbaric Medicine. Vol 47. No 1. March 2017).

We recommend HBOT for:

• Open fractures with crush injuries
• Diabetic foot lesions
• Femoral head necrosis (especially in adolescent patients)
• Complex post-operative patients with chronic oedema
• Selected non-healing wounds
• Sports injuries (soft-tissue in nature)
• Post-chemo and radiation-induced oedema (e.g., lymphoedema post-mastectomy)

Our “Infinity Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber” can progressively increase atmospheric pressure to 2 ATA, which is within recommended therapeutic dosage levels to obtain measurable, positive outcomes for these conditions. It may also support relaxation and mental well-being.
