Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) involves a patient breathing air or varying amounts of oxygen within a pressurized chamber, where the pressure is above 1 atmosphere.
The healing power of oxygen is not something new. The use of hyperbaric therapy dates back nearly 350 years. The very first hyperbaric chamber was created in 1662. Clinical applications of HBOT began emerging in the mid-1800s, and by the 1960s, research had demonstrated its broad range of benefits. Today, hyperbaric oxygen therapy is internationally approved for over 150 conditions, proving its effectiveness in various medical and wellness applications.
