The larger chamber sizes provide the patient with a more pleasant treatment experience.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Has Become a Standard Medical Treatment
Currently, there are 13 approved conditions that Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) can benefit, including chronic non-healing wounds, carbon monoxide poisoning and decompression sickness. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that approximately 10% of the estimated 180 million people worldwide who suffer from diabetes will be afflicted with chronic non-healing wounds. By administering pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber, the body absorbs 10-15 times more oxygen then if delivered at sea level, promoting the body’s natural healing mechanisms. HBOT is a non-invasive, cost effective and safe treatment modality which has been proven successful in decreasing patient cost and increasing the patients’ quality of life.
