Wound care management and hyperbaric oxygen therapy solutions are proven methods to improving your quality of life.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is used to treat several medical conditions and we use it in different ways. We may suggest hyperbaric oxygen therapy if you have one of the following conditions:
Increases oxygenation to the body's tissues
Increases blood flow and circulation
Boosts white blood cell count
Enhances the effectiveness of antibiotics
Reduces swelling, pain and speeds recovery
Our treatments are safe, painless, and non-invasive. Many of our patients say that it is very relaxing and the feel energized after their treatments. However, you should be aware that the increased air in the chamber can create a heavy sensation in your ears, much like when you take off in an airplane. Our technicians are with you every step of the way, though, and can show you a variety of techniques to eliminate any discomfort.
Shower and abstain from using perfumes and deodorants during your hyperbaric oxygen treatment. Please leave your wigs and jewelry at home as well. Keep your body as clean and natural as possible.
Keep your body healthy at least a couple weeks before your HBOT treatment. Alcohol and carbonated beverages should be avoided for at least four weeks prior to HBOT.
If you are a smoker, try to stop smoking for the length of your hyperbaric oxygen treatment because tobacco may block your body’s natural ability to transfer oxygen.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy may affect certain medications. Consult with your healthcare providers in advance to discuss any medications you’re taking.
A cold, fever, or flu can delay the effects of your treatment.
We recommend that you receive hyperbaric oxygen therapy for an extended period of time. It may take multiple sessions before you starting seeing the benefits.
When you arrive at one of our treatment centers, our staff will do everything we can to help you feel relaxed and comfortable. Our hyperbaric chambers are some of the most reliable and comfortable in the industry, and we use monoplace chambers so you can enjoy the treatment with plenty of privacy. Our technicians are by your side for the duration of the treatment, and we have several entertainment options available as you pass the time. The duration of the treatment will depend on the condition we’re treating, but whether you’re here for an hour or two, we’ll make sure that everything goes as smoothly and comfortably as possible.
