What is a Hyperbaric Chamber? 

According to researchers, hyperbaric chambers help heal damaged tissues at a faster rate by supplying patients with 100 per cent oxygen inside the specially designed chamber. These chambers encourage people with injuries to heal faster with the growth of new skin, blood vessels and connective tissue.

“Hyperbaric at 2 atmos,” meanwhile, is shorthand for “atmosphere” — the pressure inside the chamber.
