After doing some research, I came across Thrive Hyperbarics and spoke with Brian. When I came in for my first session, Brian took the time to explain everything and throughout all my sessions he was so kind and informative. He made the process of doing the treatments comfortable and relaxing. I'm extremely pleased with the results and truly feel the treatments made a positive difference in my recovery. I would highly recommend hyperbaric therapy at Thrive Hyperbarics to anyone looking to enhance their healing process. Thanks again Brian! Dawna K.

Other places quoted me $1200-$1500 for 5 sessions, while it was significantly less here at Thrive. I was miserable and in pain my first day after surgery, but after just one treatment I already started feeling much better. After 2-3 treatments I had no bruising, minor swelling, and no pain whatsoever. Amazing! My primary rhinoplasty had me swollen, bruised, and in pain for two weeks, so hyperbaric therapies really do wonders. Great service by Brian and very comfortable as well. Highly recommend!

Disclaimer: I normally write reviews in a purely informal narrative style, but for this review -…read morebecause I believe so strongly in the scientific evidence and want others to know and benefit - this review drifted into nerdiness by my inclusion of three examples of the many scientific papers as evidence for my reasons for taking HBOT therapy. I went for a series of sessions following lumbar fusion surgery because a significant body of research shows pre-operative HBOT therapy can very significantly reduce post-operative complications (Hyperbaric Oxygen Preconditioning Can Reduce Postabdominoplasty Complications: A Retrospective Cohort Study (Friedman, T., et al., 2019), especially those horrible bone infections that aren't noticed for weeks to months after surgery, and to speed up healing (Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy in Orthopaedics: An Adjunct Therapy with an Emerging Role (Jeyaraman, M., et al., 2023). I was very impressed with Dan and Cherise for their professionalism and 100% attention to the entire process. Their attention to detail and professionalism meant even more to me considering HBOT therapy means being kept in a small container where, if you're claustrophobic, it can be stressful. To help with this, Dan always had a ready supply of television shows to watch during the process and in fact, he and I spent many a session watching TV together taking turns sharing movies we liked! Did I mention Dan's impeccable credentials for running a HBOT practice, for attention to detail is vital when it comes to managing high pressure oxygen systems? Yes, Dan was trained under a Navy legend, the famous Master Chief Billy Sunday (played by Robert De Niro in the movie Men of Honor (https://g.co/kgs/6PpaZve). As I will need another surgery soon, I'll certainly be returning to Optimal Hyperbarics as a growing body of evidence points to the benefits of HBOT therapy versus vascular dysfunction, age-related brain microvascular degeneration, etc. (Integrative Role of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy on Healthspan, Age-Related Vascular Cognitive Impairment, and Dementia (Balasubramanian, P., et al., 2021).

The O2 Health Lab has some of the finest and most effective integrative healing therapies available ANYWHERE, and their staff is warm, welcoming and very accommodating! It is an EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE IN EVERY WAY, and I would highly recommend it to anyone seeking health and wellness outside the restrictions of traditional pharmaceutical medicine!!!

Not only are the machines/chambers high grade, staff is exceptionally sweet and helpful, and I genuinely enjoyed returning daily for not only the care but overall service. I also did see and feel a difference after doing the HBOT sessions, but not sure if this is something I can continue to add to my regimen due to how expensive it is. You're definitely paying for what you get but this is a luxury service that not everyone can afford. I was recommend by my doc and he is even considering trying out the place since he knows it definitely works! The staff is incredibly attentive, sweet, and really listens to your concerns. They would even remember which show I was watching the previous day, so I'll def be back here in the future!

Doctor Anderson truly changed my life on a grand scale of life, shaped me to be better at being a diabetic and he made me carr more about myself. This man's eyes for the details ..yes I mean the smalls is AMAZING!! He truly cares about everything and wants to know everything so he can treat you. When he talks you want to listen to every little word, he inspires you, he puts strength in your wounds/soul and makes you better. I came here damaged but not anymore. I came in for a debridement in my heel but it later turned into skin wounds on my legs. Which at the time I thought was a simple thing, that would fix itself and even my homecare nurse at the time said it wasn't serious but Dr. Anderson noticed it was actually serious. He fixed up fast over a couple of months (in a long detailed process), he gave me some inspirational words each week we met, told me to the importance of having my sugar blood sugar low and; under control, reminded me to keep off my leg and he treated my wounds. He also went beyond that with getting a much better home nurse, the right supplies, a wound vac and now I'm doing skin grafts. Seriously I feel like royalty but this is just normal care I'm sure. I feel like a project but like a awesome new tech (million dollar man) project. I can't tell you guys how much faith I lost before coming to him, weeks of crying, being depress and not thinking I'd ever get better but now I look forward to just living again. I spender months in a hospital bed but now I look forward to defeating diabetes and I look forward to my fresh new legs.  I have been battling through so many doctors, surgeons and a different wound center/team that was horrible "tri-city wound center" (seriously they were ready to cut off my leg,throw me away and they didn't know how to treat me. Save yourself and don't even go to them).  Side note: If you training to go into this career. This man is who you NEED to follow and learn from. He is a amazing leader, a great medical mind, his eye for the details is so FOCUSED, he is like a hawk or sniper, it's the fact he cares about every little thing and; the fact he does it so fast/well is just unreal and he is just a overall great individual. I could go on and on about why Dr. Anderson is so GREAT!!  It's rare to come across a doctor that's really cares you the patient. He treats you like family. He wants to see you truly be better and be healed. I don't cry anymore, I don't feel sad anymore and I have true hope now. I love this doctor and everyone there. I don't know if there's doctor's there but I recommend asking for him only. You'd be foolish to go somewhere else.
