Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
HYPERBARIC OXYGEN
THERAPY (HBOT)
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is a
medical treatment that involves
breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized
environment. This therapy enhances the
body’s natural healing processes by
increasing the amount of oxygen your
blood can carry.
HOW IT WORKS:
- Pressure Chamber: Patients enter a
hyperbaric chamber where the
atmospheric pressure is increased to
1.5 to 3 times higher than normal.
- Oxygen Intake: Patients breathe in
100% oxygen (normal air contains
21%).
- Oxygen Delivery: The increased
pressure allows more oxygen to
dissolve in the blood plasma,
improving oxygen delivery to tissues.
