    Has anyone ever visited an oxygen bar? Our air is only 21% oxygen now (in 1900 it was 40%). I guess this is due to the ozone and pollution.

    The Revitalizing Use of Oxygen
    The use of oxygen dramatically improves your energy levels, reduces pain and stress levels, provides mental clarity, emotional well being and even helps you cleanse your system of harmful toxins.

    I wouldn't spend too much time in them if I were you, oxygen is toxic in high levels the levels we find today are just fine and I checked with my geology professor and he said the oxygen levels today are about the same as they were in 1900. He said there is more CO2 but the oxygen is the same.

    i was on vacation in vegas, and i decided to try an oxygen bar, because it was there, something to do besides gamling.....IT WAS A HUGE WASTE OF MONEY...huger waste than a slot machine!

    the "water massage", on the other hand was SUPER relaxing.

    peace.

    I'm not so sure what your saying about reduced oxygen levels in the our air is quite acurate. there maybe less, but I don't think to that extent, seems a bit extreme and well, a good sales pitch for an oxygen bar

    I tried oxygen therapy a couple of weeks ago. A friend of mine does it. It was pretty cool, but I certainly wouldn't pay for it.

    the 40% oxygen was 360 million years ago during the Carboniferous period...it aloud insects to grow very large ...like dragonflies with wing spans of 2.5-3 feet

    I thought she sounded a bit off. I was going to say, the world would be quite different with the air containing 40% oxygen. I have a mental picture of alice in wonderland

    Where did you get that info about the O2 levels. They have remained pretty stable. A 40% O2 level would cause just about everything in site to burst into flame.........

    I went to an oxygen bar with a friend last summer. It was ok, I didn't really feel too much off of it. It was a waste of money.

    I've had pure O2 during my C sections and after other surgeries. It makes you feel really good. I'd like to go to an oxygen bar. But no smells in my oxygen.

    I've hung out at Tonic O2 bar in Boulder. the entire place is richly oxygenated, and that's nice in thin air.
    On top of Pike's peak is a tourista shop (how wrong, eh?) that offers oxygen and it REALLY helps at 14000+
    Tonic also deals in jun and herbal elixers. Nice, calm place. I have hooked up a few times. I try to pop by after a cold or infection or in lieu of a hospital trip for asthma. MUCH cheaper.
    I do have essential oils for bronchiodilation (peppermint, eucalyptus) in the water that the O2 goes through. (you want it moist)
