Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is a proven modality to heal diseases and wounds that have otherwise been resistant or nearly impossible to treat. Breathing 100 percent oxygen while at 2.0 ATM of pressure causes the oxygen to diffuse into the blood plasma and results in a 20-fold increase in blood oxygen levels. The oxygen hypersaturation nourishes tissue with poor circulation, improves the ability of white blood cells to kill bacteria, stimulates the growth of new blood vessels and boosts the body’s own natural healing process. This markedly diminishes the need for amputation and improves outcomes for patients who have failed to respond to traditional therapies alone.
