Can breathing oxygen under pressure really transform health? In this episode, we sit down with Shah Haq and Michael Carroll, co-founders of Oxygen Health Systems, to explore how hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is changing the way people heal.
Michael, a cancer survivor, discovered the power of HBOT through his doctor—an experience that inspired him and Shah to leave their careers at Bell Labs and build a company focused on safety, innovation, and accessibility. Together, they’ve developed more than 40 hyperbaric chamber models, from compact home units to multi-person systems, all designed with cutting-edge features like starlight headliners to reduce anxiety, multiple reinforced windows, integrated air conditioning, and industry-leading safety valves.
They also discuss HBOT’s wide-ranging applications, from FDA-approved uses to emerging therapies for athletes and brain health. And beyond the tech, Shah and Michael share how their customer-first philosophy, financing options, and upgrade programs make this advanced therapy more accessible to families, patients, and practitioners around the world.
Whether you’re curious about HBOT, exploring alternative healing methods, or just love stories of innovation with heart, this episode will expand your understanding of how oxygen can be medicine.
