Hyperbaric therapy is a medical treatment that involves breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized room or chamber. This increased pressure allows more oxygen to dissolve in the blood, which can help promote healing and fight infections. It is commonly used to treat conditions like decompression sickness, carbon monoxide poisoning, and chronic wounds. During a session, patients typically lie in a chamber for about 60 to 120 minutes. The therapy can enhance the body's natural healing processes by improving oxygen delivery to tissues, reducing inflammation, and stimulating the growth of new blood vessels.
