📊 Research Snapshot:

What HBOT Can Do

    • Diabetic foot ulcers & chronic wound healing

    • Post-radiation tissue damage (e.g. after cancer treatment)

    • Carbon monoxide poisoning

    • Decompression sickness (“the bends”)

    • Crush injuries & compromised skin grafts/flaps

    • Severe anemia (when transfusion isn’t available)

    • Sudden hearing loss

    • Thermal burns

    • Gas gangrene and necrotizing infections

    • Osteomyelitis (bone infections)

    • Intracranial abscess

      These are approved by the U.S. FDA and/or recognized by the Undersea and Hyperbaric Medical Society (UHMS).

  • Backed by peer-reviewed studies but not yet FDA-approved:

    • Traumatic brain injury (TBI) & concussion recovery

    • Long COVID symptom relief (fatigue, brain fog)

    • Post-surgical healing (including cosmetic procedures)

    • Chronic inflammation and autoimmune support (e.g. RA, lupus)

    • Fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome

    • Avascular necrosis (bone tissue death)

    • Stroke recovery

    • Sports-related injuries & performance optimization

      Off-label use means your doctor may recommend HBOT even if it's not FDA-approved for that specific condition — based on clinical judgment and growing research.

    • Increases oxygen delivery by up to 15x

    • Stimulates new blood vessel growth (angiogenesis)

    • Reduces oxidative stress & inflammation

    • Enhances mitochondrial function & energy production

    • Mobilizes stem cells for tissue repair

    • Reduces post-exercise muscle soreness

    • Accelerates soft tissue healing (sprains, strains, microtears)

    • Lowers oxidative stress from intense training

    • Improves endurance and recovery time

    • May support cognitive recovery after head impact sports
