The Upping Your Elvis Podcast: Episode 23
Chris is flying solo this month for our latest #ElvisEnergyExperiment, where he’s been diving deep into the world of hyperbaric chamber therapy, with the brilliant Dr Will Buxton.
Hyperbaric chamber therapy involves climbing into a purpose-built chamber where you’re exposed to an atmosphere of 100% oxygen, pressurised to up to 3 times the normal atmospheric pressure. Luckily Dr Will does all the scientific bits, and all Chris has to do is chill out in the chamber and take deep breaths.
By increasing the concentration of oxygen in the blood and giving your body's tissues a boost with exposure to rich blood plasma, lots of amazing things happen. Damaged tissues heal faster, inflammation reduces and the immune system is strengthened. For Chris, however, this experiment was all about exploring the mood-enhancement that people experience due to improved mental clarity.
And he certainly got some of that!
Have a listen as Chris chats about the experiment and how it has him bursting with positive energy.
