How it works...

Reduces swelling:
Increased oxygen levels cause blood vessels to constrict, which decreases the fluid leaking into surrounding tissues and helps lower edema.
Fights infection: HBOT can enhance the activity of white blood cells and inhibit bacterial growth, making it harder for infections to take hold in the burn wound.

Promotes healing:
By flooding the tissues with oxygen, HBOT can speed up the healing process by supporting new cell growth (fibroblast proliferation) and regeneration.

Improves tissue viability:
It increases the oxygen available to tissues that are experiencing reduced blood flow, making them more likely to survive and heal properly.

Even small people use our Equipment.
This 11 year old Boy fell into a hedge row while playing with friends. A branch from a small tree pierced his skin and got lodged in his upper thigh.

A breif vist to the hospital, wound cleaned and its a clean repair.
So we used the machine to aid a speedy recovery and reduce swelling and scaring.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy promotes wound healing by increasing the amount of oxygen in the blood, which then travels to tissues and aids in repair. This is achieved by having the patient breathe a more Concentrated amount of oxygen inside the chamber with increased air pressure. This increases turn helps grow new blood vessels, new connective tissues, and can reduce swelling. It is effective for complex and chronic wounds/deep injuries that are slow to heal.
