Accelerate Healing With HBOT

 

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is a medical procedure that involves breathing pure oxygen in a hyperbaric chamber, which has air pressure that is two to three times higher than outside air pressure. During an HBOT session, the patient breathes medical-grade 100% oxygen at pressures of 1.4 ATA or higher, which increases the amount of oxygen in their blood. As the oxygen-rich blood circulates, it delivers more oxygen to areas that require healing, such as surgical sites or diabetic foot ulcers. This increase in oxygen can reduce tissue swelling, encourage the growth of new skin, connective tissue, and blood vessels, and stimulate the production of natural oxygen radicals to seek out trouble spots and prevent tissue damage. HBOT has been shown to block dangerous microorganisms and boost the immune system to prevent infection. By providing the body with an abundance of oxygen in a hyperbaric environment, HBOT provides a range of benefits that can aid in the healing process and improve overall health.

Discover the Advantages of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) can accelerate the healing process for a wide range of CMS-approved medical conditions. This form of therapy has been shown to offer significant benefits for various indications, including diabetic ulcers, burn injuries, collagen production, infection, and late effects of radiation. Some of the potential health benefits and positive outcomes associated with hyperbaric chamber treatments include:

  • NursePromoting wound healing
  • Improving and repairing injury, by increasing oxygen delivery to damaged tissues
  • Improving infection control
  • Helping in new blood vessel formation from pre-existing vessels (angiogenesis)
  • Nitric oxide release with migration to the point of injury
  • Increasing the production of collagen
  • Reducing local swelling (edema)
  • Improving perfusion (blood flow) to the affected area
  • Decreasing markers of inflammation in the body
  • Reducing the effects of decompression illness; HBOT was first utilized medically for this condition
