What is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy? (HBOT)
San Diego Center for Hyperbaric Therapy is a freestanding facility dedicated to providing the highest quality care available using hyperbaric oxygen therapies.
Hyperbaric Therapy is a prescribed treatment that is approved by the FDA and AMA. This therapy is a medical treatment, which introduces 100% oxygen to the patient in a painless, relaxing atmosphere. HBOT uses controlled pressure in excess of the usual pressure in the atmosphere.
The administration of 100% pure oxygen through hyperbaric oxygen therapy increases the oxygen delivered 10 – 15 times more than what is delivered at normal atmospheric levels or at sea level. The HBOT procedure transports oxygen throughout the bodies tissues and increases the oxygen entering the bloodstream. By increasing the oxygen under controlled pressure the oxygen can reach tissue, bone, plasma, the central nervous system and the lymph that are not normally accessible to the red blood cells. The new blood vessels enhance blood flow and tissue growth, which accelerates the healing ability.
Conditions Treated by Hyperbaric Therapy
What HBOT treats
Hyperbaric Therapy has been used for more than three decades as an adjunct medical treatment for a variety of medical conditions. HBOT allows patients to breathe 100% medical grade oxygen, to enhance the oxygen in their blood, reducing inflammation and stimulating the growth of new blood cells, tissue, and improve a patients overall healing process.
Hyperbaric Therapy is a prescribed drug in the state of California and is approved by the FDA and AMA.
