Hyperbaric oxygen therapy

Wounds that are unable to heal on their own are considered chronic wounds. They occur for a number of reasons, ranging from diabetes to arterial diseases, and can be both painful and detrimental to your health. The sooner you seek the help of an experienced wound care team, the sooner we can get you back to living life.

Every year, chronic wounds caused by diabetes, poor circulation, or other health-related disorders keep millions of Americans from doing the activities they love. We can help.

Our doctors, nurses, and technicians are specially trained in using advanced techniques and hyperbaric oxygen therapy to treat and heal chronic wounds within a few months, including ones that have resisted years of traditional treatment.

There are several steps you can take to help your wound heal: consult with an experienced wound care team, come to all scheduled appointments, and follow your treatment plan as diligently as possible.

Treatment plans may include several lifestyle changes, including to your diet, physical activity levels, and sleep schedule.

Hyperbaric Oxigen Therapy

EVERY YEAR, NON-HEALING WOUNDS affect three to five million Americans. 

They can be painful, embarrassing, and negatively impact a person’s overall health. If you or someone you know is suffering from a wound that won’t heal, ask your doctor about HOPE Vascular & Podiatry.

What is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is the administration of 100% oxygen in a safe, pressurized environment. The therapy works throughout your entire body as increased levels of oxygen enter the bloodstream and tissue to promote the healing of chronic wounds. 

The amount of time each treatment takes depends on the individual, usually lasting approximately two hours and given five days a week.

This non-invasive procedure boasts a range of benefits, such as:

  • Preserving injured tissue integrity.
  • Enhancing oxygen delivery to injured tissue.
  • Accelerating wound healing.
  • Strengthening control over specific infections.
  • Facilitating the growth of new blood vessels.
