Hyperbarics
Breathe 100% oxygen inside a pressurized chamber — and let your body do what it does best: heal. Our hyperbaric suite houses four chambers on site.
What It Is
About Hyperbarics
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is a medical treatment in which you breathe pure oxygen inside a pressurized chamber. The added pressure allows your blood to carry far more oxygen than normal breathing — and oxygen is the raw material your body uses to repair tissue, fight infection, and grow new blood vessels.
Physicians may recommend HBOT for specific conditions, including certain slow-healing wounds, tissue injury following radiation treatment, and other diagnoses where oxygen-starved tissue needs support. Every course of treatment here begins with a physician evaluation, so the therapy is prescribed — never sold.
Sessions are calm and unhurried: you rest in a clear chamber, watch a show or simply close your eyes, while a trained team member stays in contact with you throughout.
Who it may be for
- People with certain non-healing or slow-healing wounds
- Patients recovering from radiation tissue injury
- People whose physician has recommended HBOT for a specific diagnosis
- Patients looking for coordinated wound and recovery care
What to Expect
Your visit, step by step
Physician evaluation
Your doctor reviews your history and diagnosis to confirm HBOT is appropriate and designs your treatment plan.
Your session
You relax in the chamber for roughly 90 minutes to two hours while the pressure rises gently — most people read, watch, or nap.
A course of care
Many plans involve a series of sessions over several weeks, coordinated with the rest of your care under this roof.
