The SoCal Hyperbaric oxygen chamber is the real deal (hard sided which is what you want... the soft…read moresided versions cannot go. "deep" enough - all the studies have been at 2.0) to speed up the body's healing process by increasing oxygen absorption up to 35%. This was what I needed after my reconstruction surgery. I was on cancer drugs, that slowed down my cell turnover, so my healing process would be slowed down. Also, the reconstruction was done with analogous tissue, which meant that my body would have to create more blood vessels in the new tissue, Solid Hyperbaric Oxygen Chambers do these things. Not to mention, after radiation, my skin and tissue was thicker and wouldn't stretch. Again, Hyperbaric Chamber helped cell turnover to rejuvenate that skin. After ungracefully climbing into the chamber and lying down, Jon, Leslie and Theresa made sure I was comfortable and had a pillow, a bolster, some water and some chewing gum. Next they "locked me in" and Jon stayed nearby - watching me (off and on ) through the window. He was close by all of the time I was in the unit, but especially as the chamber was slowly pressurized (as if we were going down under the sea.) The increased air pressure became three times more than normal. This is what you want to press the Oxygen into your tissues. The team at SoCal Hyperbaric, oxygen, make you feel so safe, you can't help but relax and be comfortable. I needed to yawn, drink the water into the gum they that provided to unpop my ears. Once the air pressure stopped changing, I didn't have any more - all felt normal. Above my head, a light for the chamber was dimmed so I could rest or watch the movie I requested. Surprisingly, I didn't feel claustrophobic but it was mildly scary (the first time anyway) knowing I couldn't let myself out but had to trust that someone would come and release me. Luckily, it was easy to trust Jon, Lesley and Teresa. You could tell that the owner, Raffy Elkayam, took great care in hiring his employees. Jon used to be a paramedic. And Raffi got into the business because of his own health needs, so he gets it. Everyone there has integrity, so there's no funny business of trying to give you less of a percentage of oxygen or extra charges after you've started. One time, Teresa felt my sinuses might have issues because of allergies, and canceled/rescheduled my session at no charge. Everything is on the up and up here, and you can feel secure spending your money at this business. In the end of my first visit, Jon gradually decreased the pressure, and opened up the "Vault". I felt slightly light-headed when I came out but energized, too. Jon told me some people step out feeling like they'd had several cups of coffee, while others feel a more subtle, sustained level of energy. I certainly felt good, less tired than I had since before the surgery, and I slept very well that night. When I went to see my surgeon, his whole team was surprised by my quick healing. They said my stitches were mending twice as fast as they would've expected! That was music to my ears. If you're thinking about doing hyperbaric, oxygen chambers, I suggest SoCal hyperbaric oxygen on Ventura Boulevard is the best!

They always made sure I was comfortable and had everything I needed before going in to the chamber.

The chambers are nice, clean and comfy, and had more than enough pillows and blankets to fall asleep during my Netflix/HBO max shows! They get pretty booked so book in advance or let them know to put you on the waitlist for a cancellation opening- that always got me in with my crazy schedule. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND GOING HERE!

We also had such a great conversation with our esthetician. I feel bad that I can't remember her name, but she truly made our visit special.

I'm looking forward to being able to visit here again. Definitely book the 60 minute session for some serious r&r or multiple rounds of sauna/soak. Minus 1 star for now, as unfortunately the infrared lights were not working in my sauna when I visited. The sauna was still perfectly hot, just no lights. It'll be 5/5 when I return and the lights are back up! Other than that though, really lovely experience.

And can we talk about the heated towels after the plunge? Total game changer. I also got a B complex shot here and felt amazing after. They offer so many cool services--cryo, compression, contrast therapy, IVs--I'm seriously wanting to try it all. Every visit feels like a reset for my body and mind. And the owner, Lin, is so sweet and down-to-earth. You can tell she's poured so much heart into this place. If you're even thinking about trying cold plunge or anything wellness-related, Pure Recovery is the spot. I'm so grateful I found it!

When I arrived, I was greeted and since I was early, I lounged in their luxurious and plushy waiting room. I was then taken to a room with the comfiest heated bed. I got a microdermabrasion which was much needed. It really exfoliated all of the dead skin on my face and I found out my skin was even more congested than I thought. I left with more even looking smoother skin and noticed a difference in the absorption of my skincare products. I booked the appointment with ease through ClassPass and would highly recommend it!

Where do I begin? My…read morefirst appt was...fine. - Was I surprised to see a pink dog in a med spa? Sure. Was the place really run down and kind of dirty? Yea. Was the staff professional? Eek. No. But it's whatever. I had a Groupon, so what did I expect? My second appt. - My appt was at 10:30. The place was locked, but one of the staff heard me try the door and let me in. They let me know the nurse was running late. Which okay. Life happens. No big deal. About 30 minutes later, she came in, I got my treatment, and went to check out. My Groupon was for a bikini because it didn't list Brazilian as an option on the site, so I was paying additional for the Brazilian. Appt 1 it was $55, today it was $65. So I was like oh, it was $55 last time. The guy then says would I like to bundle it and pay for the next 5 up front, and he'd give me 20%? I was like, "Oh, that's so nice, thank you." So he said that'll be $320. Uhh, that math doesn't math. So I was like, "Oh, I'll go ahead and just pay each time because 55 x 5 is $275, so I'll just stick with that". My third appt. The nurse is close to 45 minutes late because of a flat tire. Which, again, things happen. But now it's getting fishy. She arrives and does my treatment. I walk out of the room afterward, and the two people who work there are very clearly talking about me, haha. I was like, cool, cool. Y'all can say what you want, but maybe don't be so obvious about it. My fourth appt. They cancelled what I had originally scheduled on the 14th and moved it to the 21st. But they at least did that a few days before, so that's a win! Come the 21st, my appt was once again at 10:30, why they do them at that time, I don't know. An hour beforehand, I got a new confirmation changing my appt to 10:45. I wasn't sure how accurate this was, so I got there at like 10:35 because they are always late anyways. Shocker, they aren't open. So I went back to my car. 3 minutes later, I see them in there, so I go to walk in, and as I do they are calling me and cancelling my appt because the machine wasn't working. My fourth/fifth appt. That brings me to today. I got there at 10:30, no one is there. I wait. Still no one. Doors locked. I waited some more. I try calling, I get their automated person, then it rings, then it says your call can't be connected. So I leave. It's now 47 minutes after my appt time, and I haven't heard a word. Working to get my money back. Should have heeded the warnings I'm seeing everywhere now.
