Why Recovery Feels Slower as We Age and How HBOT Helps You Bounce Back
Ageing naturally affects how efficiently the body delivers oxygen to tissues. Over time, this reduced oxygen availability can make recovery from daily stress, exercise, or injury feel slower. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) supports your body’s own restorative processes by enhancing oxygen circulation and cellular function — helping you feel stronger, more mobile, and more resilient.
The Science Behind Slower Recovery
As we age, tiny capillaries that carry oxygen and nutrients to muscles, joints, and skin can become less efficient. Circulation decreases, and the body’s ability to repair and regenerate tissue slows.
This often shows up as:
Stiffness or joint discomfort
Fatigue after activity
Longer recovery from training, stress, or minor injury
These changes are part of the natural ageing process but can be influenced by lifestyle, inflammation, and oxidative stress.
How HBOT Supports Cellular Recovery
During an HBOT session, you relax in a pressurised chamber while breathing concentrated oxygen. This temporary increase in oxygen availability helps your body:
Stimulate collagen and tissue repair – supporting skin, connective tissue, and recovery from general wear and tear.
Reduce inflammation and oxidative stress – helping ease muscular tension and promote joint comfort.
Enhance mitochondrial energy output – improving focus, energy, and cognitive clarity.
While non-medical HBOT at Studio2 is delivered for wellness and recovery purposes only, many clients report feeling more energised, less sore, and better able to recover between training or busy work weeks.
