What is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)?

Detoxification Process
Written By tech_suite .

Detox is hard on the body. It’s a time of deep physical and emotional transition, and every bit of support matters. At The Runway Recovery, we offer Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) as a gentle, restorative tool to help clients feel more grounded, energized, and clear as they move through withdrawal.

HBOT involves breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber, which allows the body to absorb far more oxygen than it normally would. That extra oxygen becomes fuel for healing—helping tissues repair, inflammation settle, and energy return.

How HBOT Supports the Detox Process

During detox, the body is working overtime to clear out toxins and begin healing from the effects of substance use. HBOT offers a quiet boost to that process—one that feels nurturing, not invasive.

  • Recharges Energy

  • Detox often comes with deep fatigue. HBOT helps restore energy by flooding the body’s cells with oxygen, giving them what they need to wake up and start repairing.

  • Clears the Fog

  • Brain fog and trouble focusing are common in early recovery. HBOT improves oxygen flow to the brain, helping clients feel more mentally clear and emotionally present.

  • Eases Pain and Inflammation

  • Withdrawal can bring joint pain, muscle aches, and general discomfort. HBOT helps calm inflammation and supports faster healing of sore or damaged tissues.

  • Speeds Up Physical Recovery

  • Muscle soreness and slow recovery are part of the detox journey. HBOT helps the body bounce back faster by supporting tissue repair and reducing strain.

  • Supports Cellular Healing

  • HBOT works at a cellular level—helping the body flush out toxins and regenerate. It’s a quiet but powerful way to support detox, long-term health, and even anti-aging benefits.

What HBOT Sessions Feel Like

At The Runway, HBOT sessions are designed to feel safe, calm, and restorative:

  • 60-minute sessions in a mild hyperbaric chamber

  • Deep oxygen absorption to support healing and rejuvenation

  • Mental clarity and improved focus

  • Pain relief and muscle recovery

  • Detox support and cellular regeneration

HBOT isn’t a cure-all—but it’s a meaningful part of the healing process. For clients in detox, it offers a moment of calm, a breath of clarity, and a gentle push toward feeling better.
