Sisters to open oxygen therapy and skincare clinics in Harrogate
Two East Yorkshire sisters are set to open a hyperbaric oxygen therapy clinic and a skincare clinic on the same site in Harrogate.
The Heal-Air and Pure Skin Clinic will both be located in the former Dangerfield & Keane salon on Cold Bath Road but operate as two separate businesses.
The Heal-Air will operate hyperbaric oxygen therapy chambers, which will allow customers to breathe in almost pure pressurised oxygen.
Owner Tara Hickson told the Stray Ferret this increased the level of oxygen the body can absorb, meaning more oxygenated blood flows through the body.
She said:
Ms Hickson set up The Heal-Air with her partner in 2021 after struggling with long covid.
She said she suffered with fatigue, headaches and brain fog and was recommended hyperbaric oxygen therapy chambers:
The pair previously had a clinic in Hull but decided to relocate to Harrogate after “falling in love with the area”.
Ms Hickson added:
The Heal-Air hopes to be open by mid-January. Appointment-only services will be available Tuesday to Saturday, from 10am to 7pm.

Skin Clinic
Pure Skin Clinic, situated just across the hall from The Heal-Air, will offer a range of skin treatments.
Owner Jade Hickson said people can expect “state-of-the-art laser treatments and the newest advancements in bio-chemical cellular renewal”, adding:
After leaving a career in the army to have her daughter, Ms Hickson said she struggled to find a job that offered the flexibility she required as a new parent.
That was when she looked into laser technology and became captivated by human physiology, she added.
Ms Hickson said the “time is right” to bring her business to Harrogate.
She said:
Pure Skin Clinic Harrogate will open on January 15. It will be open Monday to Saturday, 10am – 5pm, and Thursdays from 10am – 8pm.
