Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is a medical treatment involving the inhalation of pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber where air pressure is increased to two to three times that of normal atmospheric pressure.

This higher pressure enables the lungs to absorb more oxygen than under normal conditions.

The elevated oxygen levels in the bloodstream can aid in healing and combat specific infections.

• Increasing blood flow
• Wound healing
• Decreasing inflammation and swelling
• Weakening infection-causing bacteria
• Increasing the body’s ability to fight free radicals (unstable molecules that can build up in cells and cause damage)
• Stimulating the growth of new blood vessels
