Justin Bieber shared his story about Lyme Disease experience and doing hyperbaric oxygen treatment. The video shows Bieber receiving Oxygen and laying inside a futuristic-looking chamber.

The HBOT stands for hyperbaric oxygen therapy, a therapeutic device that’s often used to treat certain medical conditions, like Alzheimer’s, Chronic Lyme, TBI, PTSD, Stokes, Autism, Parkinson’s, MS, and many others according to Dr. Paul Harch a leading proponent of HBOT. Essentially, the way it works is oxygen is pumped into a tube or chamber so that the air pressure rises three times higher than normal air. In this atmosphere, the amount of oxygen in your blood increases, which can help heal injured tissue, reduce inflammation, increase stem cell growth or fight infections.

Bieber has said the chamber helps him sleep, but he isn’t exactly a trend-setter in this case. Lots of high-profile people have adopted this strange treatment for various “wellness” reasons: Michael Jackson supposedly slept inside of an HBOT to improve longevity, and Tim Tebow used one as part of his recovery routine. In addition, some people claim that HBOT can be helpful in treating a whole range of medical conditions and diseases, such as migraines, autism, multiple sclerosis, and cerebral palsy. But the only HBOT use that’s actually been cleared by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is treating decompression sickness, and 12 other, which some divers get due to a change in barometric pressure.  And although Bieber shared that he was sleeping inside of his chamber, the devices should really only be used for one hour at a time each day for an average of forty days.
