Duration of Treatment
The duration of each treatment can vary from one to two hours, although the most common treatments are in excess of 90 minutes; a variable number of sessions depend on type of diseases and conditions.

During the treatment, the patient lies in a body-length transparent tube with a doctor or nurse right outside within visual contact. A two-way radio allows the patient to speak with people outside the tube.
