Portable Hyperbaric Chambers

Hyperbaric oxygen Therapy (HBOT) can help a wide variety of conditions involving compromised blood flow and oxygen deprivation. This valuable treatment uses 100% oxygen to speed and enhance the body’s natural ability to heal. HBOT is accepted by the American Medical Association and Food and Drug Administration for specific indications.
Currently, the FDA has accepted 14 conditions that are responsive to HBOT. Typically, insurance will reimburse based on whether or not a therapy has obtained FDA approval.


The 14 FDA approved conditions are:

Diabetic Foot Ulcer
Chronic Non-Healing Wounds
Refractory Osteomyelitis
Osteoradionecrosis
Burns
Air Embolism
Decompression Sickness
Intracranial Abscess
Gas Gangrene
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
Crush Injury
Severe Anemia
Compromised Skin Grafts
Necrotizing Soft Tissue Infections


Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is also considered a helpful alternative treatment for the following conditions:

Acute & Chronic Brain Injury
Cerebral Palsy
Cerebrovascular Accidents (Stroke)
Multiple Sclerosis
Lyme Disease
Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy
Near Drowning
Acute Sports Injuries

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is a painless procedure in which a person is exposed to increased pressure, thus allowing greater absorption of oxygen throughout body tissues. This increased pressure allows more oxygen to reach the cells within the body therefore contributing to the many healing and therapeutic benefits. The concept of hyperbaric oxygenation has been in existence as early as 1662 but has only gained recognition in conventional medicine over the past 40 years.

How Does Hyperbaric Help in Healing?

Humans can live without oxygen for approximately 5 minutes. Oxygen is essential to our existence, as evidenced in the numerous conditions caused by oxygen deficiencies in our bodies. This lack of oxygen results in a dysfunction of organ systems, causing numerous chronic health conditions. When utilizing Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, oxygen is forced into the tissues, organs, brain and fluids throughout the body through the pressurization of the hyperbaric chamber.

· Oxygen floods areas that are oxygen starved to stimulate cell growth and regeneration.

· Hyperbaric oxygen increases neural brain function due to oxygen saturation.

· Oxygen displaces toxins and other impurities to assist in detoxification of your system.

· Hyperbaric oxygen acts as an anti-viral and anti-bacterial, as bacteria and viruses typically cannot tolerate oxygen.

· Oxygen reduces tumor growth in cancer patients.

· Hyperbaric serves as an immune modulator, supporting the immune system to bring T and B cells within normal levels.

· Hyperbaric oxygen provides many other condition specific benefits.

In the hyperbaric chamber, the increases in the pressure of oxygen results in more oxygen being dissolved in the blood and cerebrospinal fluid, thereby making the oxygen available for diffusion into the tissues where it helps to overcome hypoxia.
