Autism spectrum disorder affects 1 in 100 people in the UK, yet treatment options remain limited. Could hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) offer a complementary approach? This evidence review examines 8+ peer-reviewed studies - including a 2025 meta-analysis of 890 patients - covering what the research shows, protocols studied, safety considerations, and the current NHS and UHMS status. The science is emerging. The evidence is mixed. Here is the full picture.

Thinking about opening a hyperbaric oxygen therapy clinic in the UK? This complete guide covers everything - business planning, CQC compliance, PSSR 2000, chamber selection (soft vs hard shell, 1.5 to 2.5 ATA), installation, operator training, and ROI. Written by Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment UK - IBUM and IHA members with 120+ professional installations. Read the full guide →

HBOT wound healing is one of fewer than 15 conditions formally approved by the Undersea and Hyperbaric Medical Society (UHMS) - and one of the only HBOT applications directly commissioned by NHS England. This evidence review examines 18 peer-reviewed studies, outlines the clinical protocols used in research, explains UHMS and NHS approval status, and presents both positive findings and mixed results honestly.

Not all hyperbaric oxygen chambers are built the same. Soft shell chambers operate at 1.4–1.95 ATA and suit home wellness users and athletes; hard shell chambers reach 2.0–2.5 ATA for professional clinic and high-volume use. This guide by Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment UK breaks down construction, pressure, cost, and which type is right for your situation - whether you are buying for personal use or a commercial facility.

Elite athletes like UFC Champion Tom Aspinall and World Champion Boxer Savannah Marshall already use hyperbaric oxygen therapy — and the science backs them up. A 2025 meta-analysis of 299 athletes confirmed HBOT significantly accelerates sports injury recovery. Whether you're a professional club, physio clinic, or serious athlete, HBOT chambers are now more accessible than ever.

Not all hyperbaric chambers deliver the same results. The pressure level - measured in ATA - determines therapeutic depth, clinical application, and outcomes. This guide compares every major HBOT pressure level (1.4, 1.5, 1.8, 2.0 and 2.5 ATA), backed by peer-reviewed research. Discover which ATA level suits your goals, whether you're a home user, athlete, or clinic owner.
