This gentle maneuver should allow ear pressure to be released\n\n<strong>Other Methods:<\/strong>\nTry yawning, swallowing, or drinking small sips of water.\nLift your tongue to the roof of your mouth and swallow\n\nYou may have to repeat these methods several times during the pressurisation of the chamber. If you have difficulty with your ears, please tell the chamber operator immediately. Pressure sensation in the ear is to be expected, but it shouldn\u2019t hurt.<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"theplus-accordion-item\" itemscope itemprop=\"mainEntity\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Question\" role=\"tab\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-1452\" class=\"elementor-tab-title plus-accordion-header 0 text-left \" data-tab=\"2\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1452\"itemprop=\"name\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t <span style=\"width:100%\">Do you have medical staff onsite during my treatment?<\/span>\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon elementor-accordion-icon-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-closed\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"plus-icon\" width=\"416\" height=\"416\" viewBox=\"0 0 416 416\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M240 32C240 14.3 225.7 0 208 0C190.3 0 176 14.3 176 32V176H32C14.3 176 0 190.3 0 208C0 225.7 14.3 240 32 240H176V384C176 401.7 190.3 416 208 416C225.7 416 240 401.7 240 384V240H384C401.7 240 416 225.7 416 208C416 190.3 401.7 176 384 176H240V32Z\" fill=\"black\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span><span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-opened\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"minus-icon\" width=\"416\" height=\"64\" viewBox=\"0 0 416 64\" fill=\"none\"><path class=\"icon\" d=\"M416 32C416 49.7 401.7 64 384 64H32C14.3 64 0 49.7 0 32C0 14.3 14.3 0 32 0H384C401.7 0 416 14.3 416 32Z\" fill=\"black\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span><\/span>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1452\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix plus-accordion-content 0 \" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1452\"itemscope itemprop=\"acceptedAnswer\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Answer\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"plus-content-editor\" itemprop=\"text\">Yes.
