Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is a procedure in which a patient breathes 100 percent oxygen while relaxing in a pressurized chamber. This quickly delivers high concentrations of oxygen to the blood stream and the wound bed, which rapidly accelerates the healing process and is effective in fighting certain types of infections. It also stimulates the growth of new blood vessels and improves circulation. A treatment profile is administered daily and the number of treatments received will depend on the diagnosis.
