What is oxygen therapy?
During hyperbaric oxygen therapy, we breathe pure oxygen at a higher pressure than atmospheric air. The aim of the therapy is to increase the oxygen level in the blood (thereby enhancing cellular metabolism), improve concentration, aid detoxification, and support the body’s natural self-healing processes.
During the 30- or 60-minute treatment, the patient breathes in 100% oxygen at a pressure higher than atmospheric pressure, approximately 2-2.5 atmospheres. This method improves oxygen supply to damaged tissues, which helps the cellular elements of the immune system fight infections, stimulates the regrowth of tiny capillaries and the regeneration of damaged tissues, thereby significantly contributing to the acceleration of healing processes.
Against sleep disorders, illnesses, and stress
Oxygen therapy is particularly recommended for combating chronic diseases and regenerating injuries. However, the service is not only useful for athletes or people recovering from illness, but for anyone who feels tired, exhausted, or stressed. The treatment is also recommended for alleviating symptoms of depression, chronic headaches, lethargy, and joint or muscle pain.
The therapy is available in Hungary for the first time at the Lifestyle Hotel Mátra Medical Amethyst Spa. According to Natalija Boricseva, head of the hotel’s wellness department, the treatment is particularly beneficial for those suffering from sleep disorders, migraines, or chronic fatigue, those engaged in intellectual work, those living in urban environments with polluted air, and those who want to strengthen their immune systems.
In addition, many guests use the therapy to alleviate the symptoms of post-COVID syndrome.
The treatment takes place in a steel-walled chamber under the supervision of operating personnel. The guest is comfortably positioned while breathing purified, enriched oxygen. In the first 15 minutes, the atmospheric pressure rises from 1 to 2.5, followed by a period of rest. The pressure at a depth of approximately 15 meters is balanced by the staff using various techniques, which becomes almost imperceptible after fifteen minutes, allowing relaxation to begin, says Natalija Boricseva.
Extremely beneficial also for the skin
Whether after surgery or to improve oxygen levels in cells, it is worth trying the treatment, as its long-term effects include the regeneration of the capillary network, improved oxygen supply to tissues, and tissue regeneration.
Natural energy source in the heart of Mátra Mountains
The special feature of the Lifestyle Hotel Mátra is that, in addition to the crystal-clear mountain air, guests can also enjoy outstanding services. Guests can not only relax, but also consciously regenerate. The wellness area features several outdoor and indoor pools, and those who like it hot can detox in the Finnish, outdoor barrel, and bio saunas, or even take part in a beer or honey sauna session. Thanks to the services offered by Medical Amethyst Spa, our body and soul can achieve harmony, tension can be noticeably relieved, and our well-being can improve. According to the hotel’s expert, the greatest benefit of oxygen therapy is that it provides an immediate feeling of freshness and mental clarity, while also supporting the body’s vitality in the long term.
You can feel the beneficial effects even after a single treatment, but it is recommended to undergo the therapy as a course of treatment, even during a week-long stay.
Finally, it is worth combining the treatment with a wellness weekend or a few days of relaxation, so that specialists can recommend additional treatments and massages to ensure that you are truly recharged.
