What is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is a medical treatment in which the patient breathes 100% oxygen while inside a clear acrylic treatment chamber. The air we breathe is 21% oxygen. Research has shown that by increasing the oxygen content level in blood and compromised tissue, HBOT provides the ideal environment to promote the growth of new blood vessels and skin – a cornerstone of wound healing.

Indications for HBOT:

• Some types of diabetic foot wounds
• Chronic bone infection
• Acute arterial insufficiency
• Radiation related problems
• Necrotizing infections
• Gas gangrene
• Carbon monoxide poisoning
• Crush injuries
• Selected non-healing wounds
• Surgical wounds
• Soft tissue infection
