HYPERBARIC CHAMBER
WHAT IS HYPERBARIC OXYGEN THERAPY?
Hyperbaric medicine uses a special pressure chamber or pressurized room that provides 100% oxygen to enhance the body’s natural healing. At a Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy chamber, the air pressure is increased three times higher than the normal air pressure, which provides the lungs with the ability to gather more oxygen. This simple and non-invasive treatment boosts the capability of white blood cells to kill bacteria and encourages the release of substances called “growth factors”, which promote healing.
