Just Breathe O2 was set up as a Community Interest Company in August 2021 to offer hyperbaric oxygen therapy based at Palmerston in Dumfries.
We offer individuals a safe and trusted place to relax and recover through personalised treatment of hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy is used to treat a wide range of medical conditions such as Long Covid, Fibromyalgia, Asthma, MS, diabetic wound healing, COPD, Parkinson’s as well as treatment for sports to aid faster recovery of injuries and enhance performance. Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment (HBOT) stimulates and restores function to damaged cells and organs, including those of the liver and brain.
The treatment involves lying in a spacious chamber and breathing almost 100% oxygen through a mask, while the chamber is filled with additional air in order to create more pressure which assists the bodies natural healing process. Many clients find it relaxing and even have a snooze while in the chamber, with each session lasting around an hour.
