Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)

Next Health Boston offers hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) at its Chestnut Hill flagship, one of the exclusive services confirmed for the East Coast location. HBOT involves breathing pure oxygen inside a pressurised chamber, raising blood oxygen levels well beyond what is achievable at normal atmospheric pressure. The treatment is used in the longevity and recovery space to support tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and promote cellular regeneration. Sessions are supervised by Next Health's clinical team and are available as standalone appointments or as part of an integrated wellness programme.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) at Next Health Boston uses a sealed, pressurised chamber to deliver 100% oxygen at pressures typically 1.5 to 3 times normal atmospheric levels. At elevated pressure, oxygen dissolves into blood plasma at much higher concentrations than standard breathing allows, reaching tissues, joints, and organs with a saturation that breathing room air at sea level cannot achieve. This physiological mechanism is the basis for the therapy's use in a range of recovery and longevity contexts. At Next Health Boston, HBOT is available as one of the flagship services confirmed for the Chestnut Hill location at opening — reflecting the clinic's intent to offer its full advanced treatment menu at this East Coast site, rather than the more limited menus found at some regional locations. The clinical team supervises all sessions, which typically run 60 minutes once inside the chamber (plus pressurisation and depressurisation time). In the longevity and high-performance space, HBOT is most commonly used to support accelerated recovery from physical training or injury, reduce systemic inflammation, and promote angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels) in tissues with restricted circulation. Research has explored its effects on cognitive function, wound healing, and post-infection recovery, and some longevity-focused practitioners use it as part of structured anti-ageing protocols alongside NAD+ therapy and other cellular health interventions. Patients in Boston interested in HBOT for recovery optimisation, post-surgical healing, or as part of a broader longevity programme can combine sessions with Next Health's IV nutrient drips, blood testing, and ozone therapy. The Chestnut Hill site is convenient for patients from across Greater Boston including the Back Bay, Brookline, Newton, Cambridge, and Wellesley. A clinical intake and medical clearance are required before beginning an HBOT course.
