LOOKING FOR HYPERBARIC OXYGEN SERVICE?
BE AWARE!
If you are looking for hyperbaric services, here's a crucial checklist to keep in mind when assessing service centers in Canada:
✅ HEALTH CANADA MEDICAL DEVICE LICENCE REQUIRED:
All hyperbaric chambers, irrespective of size or mode of operation, must possess a current Medical Device Licence from Health Canada. Importing or distributing hyperbaric chambers without this license is strictly prohibited.
Beware of outdated Medical Device Licences. To ensure the validity of the license, visit www.mdall.ca and search for Device Name: "hyperbaric chamber" for the most recent registration information.
Only a select few chamber types have received approval from Health Canada. If the offered chamber, especially outside a hospital setting, does not align with the approved types shown here, it likely lacks a valid Health Canada Medical Device License.
APPROVED CHAMBERS WITH MEDICAL DEVICE LICENSES:
✅ INFLATABLE BAGS ARE NOT APPROVED BY HEALTH CANADA:
The use of unlicensed soft-shelled hyperbaric chambers may pose significant health risks. Additionally, these devices often fail to reach therapeutic effective pressures. Refer to Health Canada's write-up on : "Unlicensed soft-shelled hyperbaric chambers may pose serious health risks"
✅ BC TECHNICAL SAFETY AUTHORITIES REGULATES ALL PRESSURE CHAMBERS:
Local safety authorities require the issuance of Operational Licenses for individual chambers and facility installations. Displaying these Operational Licenses at the facility is as mandatory as showcasing any relevant business and Health Canada Medical Device licenses.
✅ STAFF CREDENTIALS:
Always inquire whether the facility's staff has received training in hyperbaric medicine and the operations of hyperbaric chambers.
LONG-COVID RECOVERY WITH
HYPERBARIC OXYGEN THERAPY

Long-COVID recovery with hyperbaric oxygen therapy
A recent study from Israel shows that 40 hyperbaric oxygen sessions can significantly improve neurocognitive functions and symptoms in patients suffering from post-COVID-19 condition.
This randomized, sham control, double blind clinical trial was conducted by the Shai Efrati and Amir Haddany's research group at the Sagol Center for Hyperbaric Medicine and Research and School of Neuroscience, at the Tel-Aviv University in Tel‑Aviv, Israel. This is the latest addition to a leading research of the Israeli scientists supporting evidence that hyperbaric oxygenation or HBOT improves the brain plasticity in people with fibromyalgia , traumatic brain injury TBI and stroke as well as in healthy senior individuals.
Results of the study showed improvement in global cognitive function, attention and executive power, elevated energy levels, better sleep, reduced anxiety and depression, and overall systemic pain. These clinical improvements were associated with significant improvement in oxygenation leading to increased perfusion of the brain and microstructural changes confirmed with MRI of the brain. The authors conclude that "HBOT’s beneficial effect may be attributed to increased brain perfusion and neuroplasticity in regions associated with cognitive and emotional roles."
Post Covid-19 or long Covid condition is defined as a myriad of symptoms including psychological, physical, emotional that are continuing or even new developing more than three months after getting Covid-19. Usual symptoms are trouble breathing and cough, heart problems with chest pain and palpitations, digestive problems with diarrhea and stomach pain, trouble thinking and concentrating ("brain fog"), headaches, anxiety, depression, reduced executive function, sleep problems and systemic widespread pain. The induced damage of infection with Covid-19 reaches cellular levels with hypoxia, inflammation and ischemia. This last study confirms the neuroplasticity effects of HBOT, including anti-inflammatory, mitochondrial function restoration, increased perfusion via angiogenesis and induction of proliferation and migration of stem cells.
The benefits of hyperbaric oxygenation in post Covid -19 infection and infections in general are in its role as powerful and non invasive systemic therapy that is also an excellent adjunctive therapy to other medical and natural treatments and therapies.

Clinical trials has commenced in Israel under the guidance of Dr. Shai Efrati to investigate effective use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in COVID-19 recovery.
The trials are focusing on addressing long-term sequela symptoms of COVID exposure: cognitive impairment, fatigue, sleep disorders, smell and taste disorders, pain and more.
The research group is hypothesizing COVID-19 can cause neuroinflammation and micro-infarcts leading to local hypoxia, specifically neurological hypoxia. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy will be used to reverse hypoxia, reduce neuroinflammation, and induce neuroplasticity.
