Swansea defender Alan Tate using oxygen chamber
ALAN TATE is using an oxygen chamber in a bid to speed up his recovery from a broken leg.
Swansea defender Alan Tate was expected to be out of action until Christmas after sustaining the horrific injury in a bizarre golf buggy accident last month.
But Tate, who spends three one-hour sessions in the chamber a week, believes he will be back well ahead of schedule courtesy of the medical technique.
Tate, 29, said: “The oxygen chamber is supposed to help the healing of the bone.
“The enclosed area doesn’t bother me. I go into the chamber three times a week for an hour. I’ve done 10 sessions and the results so far say it is helping and speeding up my progression.”
