Benefits of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
Accelerate Healing
“HBO” improves natural healing and promotes faster recovery from injuries, surgeries, and wounds.
Boost Energy
Reduce chronic fatigue and promote overall vitality, boosting energy levels with regular therapy.
Support Overall Health
Enhance your overall health by improving circulation, reducing inflammation, and strengthening the immune system.
Consultation
Your journey begins with a personalized consultation with your licensed Younique provider. In this comfortable session, they’ll address your concerns, treatment goals, and medical history. If they determine that hyperbaric oxygen therapy is the right option for you, your session will be scheduled.
Treatment
During your treatment, you’ll relax comfortably inside the hyperbaric oxygen chamber. The pressure level and duration in the chamber vary based on your specific condition and treatment needs. Typically, the pressure ranges from 1.5 to 3 times that of normal atmospheric pressure.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy enhances oxygen absorption in your lungs. This increased oxygen is carried by red blood cells throughout your body, stimulating the release of stem cells and growth factors—key elements in the healing and recovery process.
Recovery
After your hyperbaric oxygen therapy session, you can expect little to no downtime. Most patients feel relaxed, with some experiencing very mild side effects like ear congestion, slight fatigue, or lightheadedness, which usually subside quickly.
Overall, you should feel rejuvenated and energized. Your Younique provider will guide you on post-session care and address any concerns.

The path for your Younique journey begins with this first step.
How do I prepare for my HBO therapy?
The preparations for your treatment are simple and easy to follow. First, make sure to eat a nutritious meal a few hours before your session to keep your energy levels up.
Wear only 100% cotton clothing for your treatment, as this helps with comfort and safety. Remove body piercings, if you have them, and avoid wearing any perfume, deodorant, makeup, lotions, or hair products. Also, don’t apply nail polish or acrylics within 24 hours of your treatment.
It’s important to remove contact lenses and any jewelry before entering the chamber. Additionally, be sure to quit smoking before beginning your treatments. Your doctor can provide guidance about smoking habits during your consultation.
If you’re feeling any cold or flu symptoms, let your Younique provider know beforehand. For safety reasons, keep in mind that no electronic devices are allowed in the chamber during treatment.
How long does a hyperbaric oxygen therapy session last?
HBO treatments usually last between 45 minutes and 5 hours, but most sessions are around 2 hours. Typically, patients have one treatment per day, Monday through Friday, for a set number of weeks. During the session, the doctor stays nearby to monitor everything and make sure it’s going smoothly.
Before you head out, your Younique provider will do a quick check of your pulse and blood pressure, since the chamber can affect them. If you’re diabetic, they’ll also check your glucose levels, as the high pressure can lower blood sugar. Once your provider confirms you’re stable, you’re good to go and continue with your day.
