🩹 Enhanced Wound Healing with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

When it comes to healing wounds — especially chronic or slow-healing ones — time and oxygen are everything. At NOVA Hyperbaric in Santa Monica, we provide cutting-edge Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) that can dramatically accelerate the body's natural healing process.

If you’re recovering from a surgical procedure, dealing with diabetic ulcers, or managing an injury that just won’t seem to heal, HBOT may be the solution you’ve been waiting for.

💨 How HBOT Works to Heal Wounds

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy involves breathing 100% medical-grade oxygen in a pressurized chamber. This increases the amount of oxygen your blood can carry, which supercharges your body’s ability to:

• Repair damaged tissue

• Reduce inflammation

• Stimulate new blood vessel growth (angiogenesis)

• Boost immune response via improved white blood cell function

In a normal environment, oxygen can only travel through red blood cells. Under HBOT conditions, oxygen dissolves directly into plasma — reaching areas with poor circulation or damage that red blood cells can’t easily access.

🧠 Why Oxygen Matters in Healing

Oxygen is the fuel your body needs to build new tissue, fight infection, and reduce swelling. But many wounds — especially chronic or deep ones — suffer from a lack of blood flow and, as a result, inadequate oxygen.

HBOT bypasses these limitations by flooding the body with oxygen, creating an environment ideal for healing at the cellular level.

🔬 Clinically Proven Benefits

HBOT is FDA-approved for several wound-related conditions, including:

• Diabetic foot ulcers

• Radiation-induced tissue damage

• Surgical skin grafts and flaps

• Crush injuries and burns

• Osteomyelitis (bone infections)

Studies have shown that patients receiving HBOT for chronic wounds experience faster healing times, reduced need for surgery, and lower risk of infection.

💡 Who Can Benefit from Enhanced Wound Healing?

✅ Ideal Candidates:

• Post-surgical patients with slow healing incisions

• Diabetics with chronic ulcers

• Individuals recovering from burns or traumatic injury

• People with compromised circulation or tissue damage from radiation

🚫 Not Ideal For:

• Patients with untreated pneumothorax

• Certain individuals on contraindicated medications (e.g. some chemo drugs)

• Those with recent ear surgery or severe claustrophobia

🧘‍♀️ What a Session Looks Like

At NOVA Hyperbaric, our healing process is just as calming as it is effective. Each session includes:

1. A consultation to assess your wound healing needs

2. A 60–90-minute treatment in a climate-controlled chamber

3. Relaxation during treatment with music, guided breathing, or rest

We’ll track your healing progress and customize your treatment schedule accordingly.

💬 Real Stories of Healing

“My diabetic ulcer wouldn’t close for over 6 months. After just 10 HBOT sessions at NOVA, it began healing for the first time. I’m amazed.” — Frank R.

“After my surgery, one of the incisions started to look bad. My doctor recommended hyperbaric therapy. NOVA helped me heal completely without any complications.” — Jessica M.

🧪 Research Spotlight

A 2021 study published in Advances in Wound Care found that patients undergoing HBOT showed significantly faster wound closure and reduced inflammation markers compared to those receiving standard care alone — especially in diabetic wound management.
