Guest guest Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Usually it's two dives a day spaced out by 3 hours or more between dives. Plan on being in the chamber for at least an hour and 20 minutes. The deeper you dive - the longer it takes to pressurize and depressurize the chamber. Since you will be diving to 1.5 instead of 1.3, it takes a little longer. FYI: We have done 40 dives in a hard chamber every summer for the past three summers. Our son then does 1 dive a week in a soft chamber at a facility near our home. I asked our DAN if we were wasting our time and money doing dives in a soft chamber. He told me that all the studies done on HBOT have been done in a soft chamber. He also told me his son had done 100 hours in a hard chamber and over 400 in a soft chamber.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 You do two dive's a day with a three hour break between dive's. We paid 6000.00 for 40 dive's in Destin, Fla. and we loved the hyperbaric's clinic there...Dr. Eddie Zant...we did the dive's through the weekend's and finished in exactly three weeks.
