Advanced wound healing with hyperbaric oxygen therapy
The hyperbaric chamber is a painless environment that delivers oxygen-rich therapy to promote wound healing. During hyperbaric oxygen therapy, concentrated oxygen quickly increases in your bloodstream and helps heal the wound from the inside out. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a treatment for other conditions in addition to diabetic foot ulcers and slow-healing wounds. Our wound care doctors use hyperbaric oxygen therapy to treat many adult health conditions, including:
- Radiation Burns
- Diabetic Foot and leg ulcers
- Failed skin grafts
- Osteomyelitis (bone infections)
Our doctors and nurses listen to understand you and your health concerns. And we understand your frustration when wounds are not healing. We show you how to improve your wound-cleaning hygiene at home as part of your personalized recovery plan. Our goal is to help prevent rehospitalization for infection or wound-healing complications, and improve your quality of life.
