Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is an intensive daily treatment for management of certain approved problem conditions and wounds. In HBOT, a patient relaxes in a pressurized chamber while breathing in 100 percent oxygen, accelerating the healing process by allowing the delivery of high concentrations of oxygen to the bloodstream and wound bed.
