Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) & Concussions

By increasing oxygen supply to the brain, HBOT reduces inflammation and supports neural repair, improving cognitive function and recovery outcomes.

Chronic Non-Healing Wounds

HBOT enhances oxygen delivery to damaged tissues, promoting faster healing in wounds that struggle to close, such as diabetic foot ulcers and pressure sores. In a clinical trial of patients with chronic non-healing wounds (more than 20 months without healing), HBOT was standardized for 20 sessions (five sessions/week), resulting in a decrease in the lesions area.

Radiation Tissue Damage (Radiation Necrosis)

HBOT counteracts the effects of radiation therapy by improving blood vessel function and reducing inflammation, aiding in tissue repair for cancer survivors.

Stroke Recovery

HBOT enhances brain oxygenation, helping to stimulate neuroplasticity and improve motor function in stroke survivors.

Compromised and Failing Skin Grafts and Flaps

Numerous studies conducted over the last twenty years show that hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) supports the healing of failing or compromised grafts and flaps, even those with underlying complications, such as radiation injuries, tissue or bone infection, and diabetes.

Crush Injuries & Compartment Syndrome

By reducing swelling and increasing oxygen supply to damaged tissue, HBOT helps prevent further tissue loss and supports faster recovery. Studies have shown that when administered early, HBOT was proven to be beneficial to patients with crush injuries, with some patients even being completely healed.

Chronic Infections (Osteomyelitis & Necrotizing Infections)

HBOT fights severe infections by enhancing white blood cell activity, inhibiting harmful bacteria, and promoting faster healing in deep or resistant infections. Evidence supports successful outcomes and no reported relapses, when HBOT was used to treat patients with Chronic Osteomyelitis.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

Ongoing research shows that HBOT may help improve oxygen flow to the brain, reduce inflammation, and support cognitive and behavioral function in individuals with ASD.

Cerebral Palsy

HBOT works best for children who develop cerebral palsy due to a brain injury caused by a lack of oxygen.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease

In recent studies, 78% of patients with Crohn’s disease improved with HBOT, and 100% with ulcerative colitis were healed.

Breast Pain/Chest Pain & damage caused by Radiation

HBOT halts ongoing radiation damage to breast tissues and is used as an adjunct to skin grafting for necrosis of the chest wall after mastectomy.

Thermal Burns

Tissues surrounding burns often become hypoxic. HBOT oxygenates both burned and surrounding tissue, so viable tissue can heal.

Long COVID

Based on research, the debilitating fatigue experienced by long COVID patients is thought to be linked to the muscles’ inability to efficiently extract and utilize oxygen. By aiming to directly address this oxygen utilization impairment, HBOT has proven to be a potential solution. Following trials there were observed positive changes in attention, sleep quality, pain symptoms, and energy levels among participants receiving HBOT.

Male Infertility

Infertility is a significant social problem that causes social withdrawal and loss of self-confidence by affecting the mental health of couples. The highest mean sperm count was found after HBOT, following a small sample sized pilot study, which was conducted to define a promising research area for HBOT and male infertility.

Carbon Monoxide and Cyanide Poisoning 

HBOT is the primary treatment for fire victims who suffer from Carbon Monoxide and Cyanide poisoning, by rapidly removing carbon monoxide from the bloodstream, restoring oxygen levels and preventing long-term neurological damage.

Cancer

There is evidence that implies that HBOT might have tumor-inhibitory effects in certain cancer subtypes

Erectile Dysfunction (ED)

ED is caused by microvascular or macrovascular insufficiency in the majority of patients. Studies have shown that hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) can induce angiogenesis in different body organs, and resulted in an improvement of the maintenance of erections after penetration.
