Herston is home to hospital wards, research labs and lecture theatres, and the hours that come with them can be hard on the body. Hyperbaric O2 Health sits in neighbouring Bowen Hills as an independent private clinic, where Mathew Baker, who has more than twenty years of clinical experience, provides hydrogen therapy, musculoskeletal treatment and body psychotherapy. A free 15-minute consult is where it all begins.
The first step is a free 15-minute consult to talk through your goals.
Looking for a hyperbaric chamber near Herston? Hyperbaric O2 Health in Bowen Hills offers HBOT and hyperbaric oxygen therapy for recovery just minutes from the precinct, with supervised sessions and a personalised plan. People visit us during recovery from sport, surgery or long stretches of work, and we will discuss how our therapies might fit alongside your medical care. We are an independent private clinic, so you can come to us outside any hospital setting.
We are at 273 Abbotsford Rd, Bowen Hills 4006, a short drive from the Herston precinct, usually under 10 minutes outside peak times. The Northern Busway serves Herston, and TransLink’s journey planner will show the best route if you would rather not drive. We do not have a clinic in Herston itself.
Herston is home to hospital staff, researchers and students, and many spend long shifts standing, lifting or hunched over screens and lab benches. Typical reasons to visit include tight necks, backs and shoulders, recovery after exercise, and stress that is showing up physically. We are an independent clinic and not affiliated with any hospital. If you are under medical care, tell us about it so we can plan around it.
Our hyperbaric hydrogen therapy uses a Hydrogen/Oxygen (Hydroxy) blend in a pressurised setting, and is used to support recovery, wellbeing and relaxation. It is not a replacement for medical care, and we check suitability first, including health conditions and medications. More detail is on our Hyperbaric Oxygen / Hydrogen Therapy page.
Our hyperbaric hydroxy therapy pairs oxygen under pressure with hydrogen in a Hydrogen/Oxygen blend, developed from Mathew Baker’s experience in musculoskeletal therapy and rehabilitation. Herston clients commonly use it to support:
Results vary from person to person, and we will be clear about what to expect.
Neck, shoulder and lower-back strain are common among people who stand through long shifts or sit through long study sessions. Musculoskeletal therapy addresses the muscles and joints behind those aches, while body psychotherapy helps when stress is part of the picture. Mathew’s time in elite sport, including the Australian Institute of Sport, informs a careful, hands-on assessment.
Your free 15-minute consult covers your goals, your health history, any medications and any care you are receiving elsewhere. We explain what each therapy involves and recommend a plan only if it makes sense. If you work rotating shifts, mention your roster. Sessions generally last 60 to 90 minutes, and we send preparation notes beforehand.
Herston is a short trip from our door, which suits clients juggling rosters, lectures or lab work. You get one practitioner for hydrogen therapy, musculoskeletal therapy for Herston clients with neck, back and shoulder strain, and body psychotherapy for stress. Mathew Baker has more than 20 years of clinical experience across elite sport and everyday care, and your plan is built around your goals and your commitments.

Matt is a very experienced and qualified therapist with a background in treating elite athletes. I am not in the category but he keeps me tuned up and able to do what I love to do in my advancing years. Comforting to know that I am treated by someone with so much knowledge and experience.Posted on Google![]()

Move Well is an excellent place to get better. All the staff at Move Well is very friendly, especially that girl Lily. Lily was a very welcoming receptionist and was very polite.Posted on Google![]()

I went to see Matt last year for a really bad back after several years of pain and trying all sorts of treatments ... within 3 visits not only was my lower back almost 100% better, but I now knew what to do to maintain it. Highly recommend Matt.Posted on Google![]()
