How does HBOT work?

Inside the Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy chamber, air pressure is increased to three times higher than normal air pressure. This includes breathing medical grade oxygen through a breathing mask. This enables the patient’s lungs to gather more oxygen and also stimulate growth of new blood vessels which in turn, promotes wound healing.


How long does HBOT take?
 

Most HBOT treatments, often called “dives,” last at least 90 minutes. For DCS (Decompression sickness), dives may last up to 5 hours or more. 

 

What are some contraindications of HBOT?

 

Those patients with untreated pneumothorax or with a significant history of pneumothorax  is an absolute clinical contradiction. Some other considerations include recent or significant ear or sinus surgey, and an acute or significant history of seizure disorders.
