Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) works by delivering pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber, which allows your body to absorb more oxygen than it could at normal air pressure. This increased oxygen saturation helps accelerate healing by promoting better tissue repair, reducing inflammation, and enhancing the body’s natural ability to fight infection. It is commonly used for wound healing, improving athletic recovery, and aiding cognitive function
A systematic review and meta-analysis published in Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice evaluated the efficacy of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers. The study analyzed multiple randomized controlled trials and found that HBOT significantly improved wound healing rates and reduced the risk of major amputations, suggesting that it can serve as an effective adjunctive treatment for managing these chronic wounds.
