No.
Hyperbaric chambers, because of their use of 100% oxygen, present a potential fire risk. In addition, although hyperbaric oxygen therapy is very safe when used correctly, complications can occur. Oxygen poisoning.
Oxygen toxicity.
Hyperbaric chambers are used to deliver hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). HBOT was developed to treat underwater divers suffering from decompression sickness (the bends). It has since been approved by the Undersea and Hyperbaric.
There is limited scientific evidence to support the use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy as a primary treatment for Lyme disease. While it may help in some cases by increasing oxygen levels in the body and promoting healing, it is not considered a standard treatment for Lyme disease. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider to discuss the most appropriate treatment options for Lyme disease.

Not really. A subdural hematoma is just a bruise, so it typically goes away on its own. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is used for more complicated medical issues.
Hyperbaric oxygenation means 'hyper', high, 'baric', pressure so it means high pressure oxygenation. It can be used for patients with diabetes mellitus. Diabetes mellitus is a condition in which there is poor wound healing. It is found out that oxygen can help with wound healing so for people who have diabetes mellitus and have wounds that needs to be healed, hyperbaric oxygenation can be used.
People who, for various reasons, have trouble breathing can get oxygen more easily in a hyperbaric (which is to say, high pressure) chamber. There are also a number of diseases for which an excess supply of oxygen may be helpful.
In a hyperbaric chamber (which can be a specialized room or enclosed space), the patient is exposed to pure oxygen under high pressure, which can aid in healing.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is still not a widely used treatment although there are claims that it has some great benefits. The process involves breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized room and it often used to treat decompression that is experienced by scuba divers. The oxygen stimulates stem cells and growth factors which promotes healing in general.

Yes, hyperbaric oxygen therapy is available in the Philippines. Several hospitals and medical centers in major cities offer this treatment for various medical conditions such as wound healing, decompression sickness, and acute carbon monoxide poisoning. It is important to consult a medical professional to determine if hyperbaric oxygen therapy is suitable for your condition.
