Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is the medical use of oxygen in a controlled, pressurized environment. The increased pressure allows oxygen to dissolve and saturate more effectively in the blood and body fluids (lymphatic fluid, plasma, cerebral spinal fluid & interstitial fluid).

This is a non-invasive therapy that allows all of the body’s organs to receive more oxygen.
