Hyperbaric Medicine

Natural Healing.
Natural Results.

Hyperbaric Medicine is a medical treatment that involves breathing 100% pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber. This increased pressure allows your lungs to absorb significantly more oxygen than under normal conditions, which helps deliver higher levels of oxygen to the body’s tissues. The boost in oxygen supports healing, reduces inflammation, fights infection, and promotes the regeneration of damaged cells. Hyperbaric Medicine is FDA-approved for a variety of conditions and is also used to support recovery, wellness, and athletic performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Being informed is the most important thing when choose a treatment option that works for you. Learn more with our Hyperbaric Medicine FAQs or by contacting one of our Certified Hyperbarics Technicians.

The number and frequency of sessions needed varies with the specific condition that is being treated. Our medical providers will determine each patient’s protocol. Our staff will work with you to schedule your sessions.

A session generally lasts about 1 hour, unless a 90-minute session has been prescribed. Of course, treatments can sometimes take longer, especially if patients have difficulty clearing their ears during the pressurization phase.

There are 14 indications that are approved to be treated by the Hyperbaric Medicine Committee:

  1. Air or gas embolism – when gas bubbles enter arteries or veins
  2. Carbon monoxide poisoning – when carbon monoxide is inhaled and injuries arise from that
  3. Clostridial myositis and myonecrosis – a rapidly progressive infection of the soft tissue, known commonly as “gas gangrene”
  4. Crush injury, compartment syndrome, and other acute traumatic ischemias – injuries that result from trauma, from minor contusions to limb threatening damage
  5. Decompression sickness – referred to as the “bends,” is the formation of inert gas bubbles in tissue, usually caused by rapid ascent from a dive.
  6. Arterial insufficiencies – wounds that are not healing properly
  7. Severe anemia – a loss of red blood cell mass due to hemorrhage, hemolysis, or aplasia
  8. Intracranial abscess – an inflammation caused from infected material coming from local or remote infectious sources
  9. Necrotizing soft tissue infections – a rare but severe type of bacterial infection that can cause tissue death
  10. Osteomyelitis – an infection of bone or bone marrow
  11. Delayed radiation injury (soft tissue and bony necrosis) – some radiation treatments leave patients with cell damage to soft tissue (such as mouth, throat, and the gastrointestinal tract).
  12. Compromised grafts and flaps – when a skin graft does not heal properly
  13. Acute thermal burn injury – severe burns that can be treated with enhanced oxygen
  14. Idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss – hearing loss caused by a malfunction in a certain nerve in the brain

The number and frequency of treatments needed varies with the specific condition that is being treated. For many conditions, one treatment a day (Monday through Friday) is given for a total of 20 to 30 treatments, usually a total of four to six weeks.

There are a couple stages during a typical treatment (or dive).

  • The first stage is compression (or diving) in which the chamber is pressurized to the prescribed pressure (or depth).
  • After the oxygen periods are finished, the chamber is depressurized (or surfaced) and the treatment is finished.
