| - This kiosk at the Southwest wing of the airport in Las Vegas is a really good idea, considering all the second-hand smoke you are sure to be exposed to when in Sin City. I had a headache, likely from a combination of lack of sleep, exposure to cigarette smoke, and the sudden temperature change I experienced upon entering the airport (no, I was not hung over); a good dose of O2 seemed ideal. Sometime during my fifteen minutes with the nasal cannula on, I remembered my hospital experience as a nurse supplying supplemental O2 to patients. Duh. You're not getting pure oxygen. You're getting a little extra mixed in with everything else you're breathing (plus a light fragrance). This wasn't going to do much for my headache and I started to regret the money I just threw away.
However, the "package" I purchased came with a demonstrations and sample of some of the products they had for sale. I got some refreshing oils applied to my hands to breathe in, I got to try a funky device with electrodes that made my muscles twitch, a got a mini-massage and scalp massage using other odd looking devices. I must admit, they felt good. I wouldn't blow money on the O2 again, but I would on the massages...
