We have a mild hyperbaric pod (by Henshaw) that only gets up to 1.4 atmospheres, but still we get people complaining of discomfort during the pressurization/depressurization processes. To try and limit discomfort, I slightly open the pressure release valve so the pod pressurizes more slowly, and I have had good experience with this method. Have you ever done something like this in your practice?
@@gablake key is make sure that your clients are equalizing pressure in the ears while the chamber is pressurizing. There is an optimum speed of pressurization to minimize the risk of middle ear barotrauma is 2psi/min. Patients should never experience pain inside the chamber, if it happens, open the valve (like you do) and guide them through the process of equalizing the pressure

Do you have training sessions to become certified
