Oxygen therapy
Helping those living with MS
Oxygen Therapy is the medical use of oxygen in a pressurised environment. Breathing pure oxygen through a mask during one-hour sessions in our pressurised oxygen chamber increases the oxygen level in the bloodstream. This encourages the body to begin healing itself, generating new stem cells and repairing damaged tissues.
What we offer
Anyone wishing to access Oxygen Therapy should be prepared to commit to an initial intensive course, usually one session per day, five days a week, for three weeks.
If this is not possible (either due to personal circumstances or centre capacity), the closer together the first 15-20 sessions can be attended, the greater the potential effectiveness of the therapy.
We will always try to work with users to implement a workable schedule but, given the nature of our centre and the fact that many operators are volunteers, this may not always be possible.
Benefits of Oxygen Therapy
High Dosage Oxygen Therapy delivers oxygen quickly, and in high concentrations, to injured areas systemically. The increased pressure changes the normal cellular respiration process and causes oxygen to dissolve in the plasma. This results in a substantial increase in tissue oxygenation. High Dosage Oxygen is also used in the treatment of certain critical care acute disorders such as carbon monoxide poisoning, gas gangrene, necrotizing infections, gas embolism and decompression sickness. High Dosage oxygen is beneficial because it:
Stimulates the growth of new blood vessels
Increases oxygenation that can arrest certain types of infections
Enhances wound healing
“I recently suffered a very serious foot injury, almost losing my foot. I was very fortunate to find out about the MS Therapy Centre Oxygen Chamber.
The treatment has been so beneficial that I no longer require further surgery for the broken bones or the skin graft that were planned.”

As a charity, we want to support as many people as we can. So, if you cannot afford treatment then our Centre Manager will discuss options with you.
However, donations per treatment are always welcome.
