Accelerate Healing with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

If you’re living with a chronic wound, infection, or injury that just won’t heal, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) at Aspire Rural Health System may be the solution you’ve been waiting for. This safe, pain-free treatment uses high-pressure oxygen to help your body heal faster and fight infection—supporting recovery when you need it most.

What Is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is a specialized medical treatment that delivers 100% oxygen in a pressurized chamber. The air pressure in the chamber is two to three times higher than normal, allowing your lungs to absorb significantly more oxygen. This oxygen is carried through your bloodstream to damaged tissues throughout the body, promoting faster healing and enhancing your immune system’s ability to fight infection.

Oxygen is essential to healing. When delivered under pressure, it becomes a powerful tool to:

  • Reduce swelling and inflammation

  • Stimulate new tissue growth

  • Fight infection and kill bacteria

  • Rebuild small blood vessels and bone

  • Support the release of stem cells

  • Inactivate harmful toxins produced by bacteria

Conditions Treated with HBOT:

HBOT is used to treat a variety of serious and chronic conditions, including:

  • -Diabetic foot ulcers
  • -Chronic bone infections (osteomyelitis)
  • -Radiation injuries or burns
  • -Skin grafts or flaps at risk of tissue death
  • -Gangrene
  • -Severe anemia
  • -Carbon monoxide poisoning or smoke inhalation
  • -Crush injuries and soft tissue infections
  • -Decompression sickness
  • -Air or gas embolism
  • -Non-healing wounds

If you’re unsure whether HBOT is right for your condition, our care team can help determine the best course of treatment.

What to Expect During Treatment

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is completely pain-free. Patients lie comfortably inside the chamber and may watch TV or nap during the session. At certain points during treatment, you might feel a slight fullness in your ears—similar to what you feel during airplane travel or when driving down a mountain. Our team will guide you through easy techniques to relieve this pressure and ensure a smooth experience.

Is HBOT Safe?

Yes. HBOT is prescribed by a medical provider and performed under close supervision. While all medical treatments carry some risk, complications from HBOT are rare. Before beginning therapy, our team will review all safety information with you and answer any questions. Overall, HBOT is considered extremely safe and effective.
