Neurological Disorders
HBOT has shown improvement for those suffering from the effects of:
Mild Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI) / Concussion
Stroke (post-acute phase)
Cognitive decline or early Alzheimer’s symptoms
Long COVID neurological symptoms (brain fog, fatigue)
Neuroinflammation / MS support (non-medical management)
Post-anesthesia / post-surgical cognitive issues

ALL THE DETAILS
-
Pressure: 1.5 – 2.0 ATA
Duration: 60 to 90 minutes per session
Frequency: 3–5 sessions per week
Total Sessions: 20–40+ depending on response and condition severity
Environment: Quiet, low-stimulation; offer eye masks and soft lighting for comfort

Protocol
Maintenance
-
Red Light Therapy (RLT) before Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) can be helpful because it primes the body’s cells and circulation, making them more receptive to the oxygen boost that comes in HBOT.
RLT duration before HBOT: 10–15 minutes full body, or 5–10 minutes targeted.
Frequency: 3–5x/week or combined with HBOT sessions
Timing: Ideally right before the HBOT session so vasodilation and mitochondrial activation are at peak.
Wavelengths:
660 nm (red) – skin rejuvenation, inflammation
850 nm (near-infrared)– deeper tissue, muscle, brain, jointsHere’s why:
1. Increases Blood Flow Before Oxygen Loading
2. Stimulates Mitochondrial Energy Production
3. Reduces Pre-existing Inflammation
4. Enhances Nitric Oxide (NO) Release
5. Prepares the Nervous System- Relaxing -

Clients should start hyperbaric oxygen therapy with a protocol package for comprehensive initial treatment, then continue with a maintenance membership for ongoing support and benefits.
Individual outcomes from the therapy may vary. Each person’s response to treatment depends on a variety of factors including their unique health condition and overall wellness. While our experienced staff is committed to providing personalized support and guidance throughout the therapy process, we do not guarantee the cure of any medical condition.
Our goal is to assist clients in achieving relief from symptoms and to support overall healing and recovery. Clients should consult with their healthcare provider before beginning treatment and disclose any health concerns during their sessions.
By participating in hyperbaric oxygen therapy at ELEVATE SONOMA, clients acknowledge understanding of these terms.
If you're unsure where to begin, schedule a free consultation with one of our team members. This allows us to understand your needs and goals and tailor a protocol specifically for you.
