Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a specialized treatment in which the patient breathes 100% oxygen inside a pressurized chamber. The high concentrations of oxygen delivered to the bloodstream accelerate healing and help fight certain types of infections. The treatment can also stimulate the growth of new blood vessels to improve circulation and wound healing.

During treatment, the patient is comfortably positioned inside the chamber, and pressure is gradually increased. The procedure is painless, although some patients experience pressure in the ears. Technicians can instruct you in ways to help clear the pressure and eliminate any discomfort. Most patients watch TV or sleep during treatments.
