Medical Hyperbaric Chamber

A medical hyperbaric chamber is a specialized facility where patients breathe pure oxygen in a pressurized environment. This is done to enhance the amount of oxygen in the blood, which can help treat various medical conditions. It is commonly used for conditions like decompression sickness, carbon monoxide poisoning, and certain wounds that are slow to heal. The increased pressure allows oxygen to reach damaged tissues more effectively, promoting healing and reducing inflammation. Sessions typically last about 60 to 120 minutes and are supervised by trained healthcare professionals.
