Put your oxygen mask on first, before helping others

In 2016, I was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease at 21, and much of my twenties were shaped by flare-ups, hospital stays, and a growing reliance on medication.

By 2022, years of treatment had taken a heavy toll—not just on my gut, but across my whole body. I was dealing with constant fatigue, brain fog, skin allergies, intense itching, and other side effects that became part of daily life. Despite doing everything I was told, it felt like I was managing symptoms rather than moving towards real health.

While I was in hospital, Joe was searching for anything that might help—anything we hadn’t already tried. That’s when he came across Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT). After years of disappointment, we were understandably sceptical, but we were also open.

Once I was discharged, we travelled to Liverpool to see Marc Heath and try a chamber for the first time. To my surprise, I felt a subtle but noticeable improvement almost immediately. It was small, but it was real—and it gave us hope at a time when hope felt rare.

Encouraged by that initial experience, we made a bold decision to buy a chamber for home use. I committed to using it consistently over the following months. Slowly, then unmistakably, my body began to change. Long-standing medication side effects started to fade—my skin cleared, the itching stopped, and the brain fog lifted.

One day, I realised the warts on my hands were simply gone. Within six months, I was completely medication-free. For the first time in years, I felt like myself again.

Seeing what HBOT made possible for us, we felt a responsibility to share it with others. As more people tried the chamber, one truth became clear: access was the real barrier. HBOT works best when used consistently, yet around the world it was priced as a luxury.


Breathe was created to change that.
We were the first in the world to break the hyperbaric pricing model, introducing a membership-based approach that made regular HBOT genuinely accessible.
