Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HbOT) is a simple, non-invasive, painless treatment that enhances the body’s natural healing and strengthens the immune system, resulting in more rapid and complete healing for patients. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy can improve the following conditions that affect the healing levels of chronic wounds, including:
- Acute arterial insufficiency
- Osteomyelitis
- Radiation injury/necrosis
- Necrotizing infection
- Compromised skin grafts and flaps
- Diabetic wounds of the lower extremities
HbOT uses pure oxygen to enhance the body’s natural ability to heal. 100% oxygen under two to three times greater pressure than atmospheric pressure causes a 10 to 15-fold increase in blood oxygen concentration, resulting in an increase in tissue oxygenation. Such effects cannot be duplicated by standard oxygen treatment. Hyperbaric therapy is extremely safe and effective when administered by qualified professionals.
