Ahmedabad: Lyfstyle Wellness Centre, a leading healthcare provider, has launched Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) at its facility in Ahmedabad, marking the introduction of this advanced, non-invasive treatment option in the city.
HBOT involves breathing pure oxygen in a pressurised chamber, allowing the lungs to absorb significantly more oxygen than under normal atmospheric conditions. The increased oxygen concentration in the bloodstream accelerates the body’s natural healing processes and has been found beneficial in the treatment of various acute and chronic conditions.
Originally used in clinical and emergency medicine, HBOT is now gaining attention for its potential to support recovery in conditions such as non-healing diabetic wounds, radiation injuries, carbon monoxide poisoning, severe anaemia, crush injuries, and skin graft complications. It is also increasingly used as a wellness therapy for managing oxidative stress and promoting cellular regeneration.
Dr. Swapnil Shah, Founder, Lyfstyl Wellness Centre, said, “We are proud to bring Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy to Ahmedabad for the first time in a wellness setting. As awareness grows around integrative healthcare, HBOT offers a scientifically supported method to enhance oxygen delivery at the cellular level. Whether recovering from injury, managing a chronic condition, or simply pursuing better overall wellness, this therapy provides a powerful addition to conventional treatment. Our aim is to blend medical sincere and holistic wellness and offer curated, evidence-based treatments.”
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved HBOT for a wide range of medical conditions including air or gas embolism, decompression sickness, gas gangrene, sudden hearing loss, and severe burns. Beyond these, the therapy is being explored globally for its supportive role in neurological conditions, post-surgical recovery, and athletic performance.
The centre features a modern HBOT facility designed to offer comfort and safety under professional supervision. HBOT sessions are administered under the guidance of trained professionals, with each treatment typically lasting between 60 to 90 minutes.
Lyfstyle Wellness Centre is the pioneer and the only centre in Gujarat that offers non-invasive heart treatments like EECP and ESMR. With the launch of HBOT, the centre further reaffirms its position at the forefront of non-invasive healing therapies in the state.
