Understanding the Evidence
Published research relating to the modalities we offer, with a link to each study so you can read it yourself. Filter by the program you are curious about.
Research on a modality does not automatically establish that every device, pressure, wavelength, session duration or wellness application will produce the same outcome. When you open a study, it is worth checking the study design, the number of participants, the population studied, the exact intervention used, and the main findings and limitations, then asking whether that protocol matches the service delivered here.
What to check
The pressure used, the oxygen concentration, the session schedule and the population studied. A study conducted at a higher pressure, a different oxygen concentration, or in a diagnosed medical population is not direct evidence for a 1.3 ATA wellness service.
What to check
The device, wavelength, irradiance, dose, distance from the skin, frequency and session schedule. Outcomes in photobiomodulation research are highly dependent on these parameters, and results do not transfer automatically between devices.
Photobiomodulation Before Intense Exercise in High-Level Soccer Players
A randomised controlled trial gave elite soccer players red and near infrared light therapy before an intense running test, then measured functional performance, muscle damage, inflammatory and oxidative stress markers against a placebo group.
Floatation-REST in Anxious and Depressed Individuals
Seventy five participants with anxiety and depression completed repeated float sessions in this randomised safety and feasibility trial. Prior single sessions had shown an anxiety and mood benefit lasting over 48 hours; this trial tested whether repeated sessions were tolerable and safe.
Infrared Sauna as an Exercise Mimetic in Healthy Women
A randomised controlled crossover trial compared infrared sauna against moderate intensity exercise and rest, measuring core temperature, blood pressure, arterial stiffness and heart rate variability to understand how sauna heat compares physiologically to exercise.
Lower-Limb Intermittent Pneumatic Compression on Sports Recovery
This systematic review and meta-analysis pooled results across multiple trials of pneumatic compression (the technology behind recovery boots). Findings across individual trials are mixed, underscoring that compression works well for some recovery markers and less consistently for others.
Electromagnetic Stimulation for Postpartum Pelvic Floor Strength
A randomised controlled trial compared electromagnetic pelvic floor stimulation directly against standard Kegel exercises in postpartum women. The electromagnetic stimulation group showed significantly greater pelvic floor muscle strength gains than the Kegel-only group.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Dosage Analysis in Persistent Postconcussion Syndrome
This systematic review analysed 11 studies of HBOT for persistent postconcussion symptoms, organised by oxygen and pressure dose. Symptom improvements were recorded at 30 sessions using mild 1.3 ATA air, the same pressure used in our wellness chamber, alongside findings at other dose levels.
Photobiomodulation for Periocular Wrinkle Reduction
A randomised controlled trial tested red and amber LED light protocols around the eye area at matched light doses, measuring change in wrinkle volume using 3D imaging analysis against a control group.
Picosecond Laser Removal of Black Tattoos in Skin Type IV
A prospective study treated 20 patients with professional black tattoos using picosecond Q-switched laser across just two sessions, eight weeks apart, then assessed improvement and safety outcomes.
Combined Microneedling and PRP for Acne Scarring
A meta-analysis pooled four randomised trials and ten controlled studies, 472 patients in total, comparing microneedling alone against microneedling combined with platelet-rich plasma for acne scar improvement.
These studies inform how we design our programs. They are not claims about individual results, and they are not evidence that a particular service will suit you. Evidence varies according to the condition, device, dose and protocol studied. Speak with your practitioner about what the research does and does not tell you in your own circumstances.
